About 8 years ago, after delivering my third child, and weighing in at about 180,...I knew there had to be a change. I started running, running and more running. I lost a total of 47 pounds...while never picking up a set of weights, which resulted in the whole "skinny fat" thing. This major cardio routine has remained over the course of the last 7 years...while I was maintaining my weight, my bodyshape left alot to be desired:) That's when a friend of mine introduced me to weightlifting at the begining of 2009 and have been hooked ever since!
Why I Love It:
I have found that strength training, along with my other fitness interests, has changed my body in ways(still have a LONG way to go) that I've never seen before. Increase in strenth and energy as well. I need it with three kids to take care of!
How I Stay Motivated:
This part is really not hard for me, honestly...I've always enjoyed fitness and it's my sanity. Just have realized I was doing all the wrong things all of these years...
BB Accomplishments:
Everyday that I go and hit those weights is a personal accomplishment for me:)
Forum Signature:
It's a kind of radiance. People who possess a true inner beauty, their eyes are a little brighter, their skin a little more dewy. They vibrate at a different frequency
Finally got a scanner to post this pic...This was me a month after delivering my youngest son, 8 years ago. I probably weighed about 185 here. First time I had had a major weight problem.. I let 3 kids in 4 years do this to my body. Would I do it again to have my kiddos...for sure! Just would maybe ...
Been lifting really heavy since January...first time I have really started seeing the shoulder and bicep seperation...wooohoo! Guess that's because bodyfat likes me:)
One of the first people I added on BB.com...Her blog kicks butt!..she doesn't take any crap, but still has a grace about her even though she is bad ass.....LOL Not to mention she's a mommy and looks beautiful..
A hater is someone who is jealous and envious and spends all their
time trying to make you look small so they can look tall.
They are very negative people to say the least. Nothing is ever
good enough!
