I was never really a "fit" girl. I was active, but mainly because I was too proud to ask for a ride so I just stuck to my bike. I got a car and started to commute more and the pounds started packing on. I saw a picture of me at my best friend's wedding (this photo is in my album), and all I wanted to do was cry. I got on the scale in January and watched it climb to 178lbs. I stuck to wearing my scrubs to school as often as I could seeing how my size 11 jeans couldn't even come close to buttoning and if they did, my muffin top poured over. I didn't do a thing about it until May when I decided to set a goal of getting through just 4 weeks of Insanity. I hit the 4 weeks despite my crazy schedule being in a Dental Hygiene program. I finished the ENITRE program and decided to explore the gym. I have been committed ever since.

I can't say I have a specific talent, I am okay at somethings, but not good enough to be on a team or carry it out. Working out is for everyone, as long as they are willing to put in the effort. To quote Tim Tebow "Hard work beats talent, when talent doesn't work hard". I get out of it what I give in; if I half it, I am only cheating myself and I am worth more than that.
