I've always had an active lifestyle, but after changing jobs and having two kids, everything changed! I sit at a desk 10 hours a day, and gained about 60 lbs when pregnant for each of my daughters. I had my first daughter in the summer of 2012, and my second daughter in the winter of 2013. I didn't end up losing all of the weight that I carried with my first before getting pregnant with my second.... and sitting in front of a computer all day hasn't helped me lose it!

You must first love yourself before you can love others. My weight-gain has effected my family, marriage, health, and confidence level. I want to be happy again and not afraid to look in a mirror at myself. Nothing feels better than some sore muscles, a post-workout high, and satisfaction that changes are happening. : )
