I just changed jobs and now have the time available to devote to making healthy lifestyle choices. Previously, I was in a job where I traveled constantly and was eating out for every meal and that way of living caught up to me quick, gaining about 20 pounds. My goal is to lose 10 pounds a month, only weighing monthly so that I do not get discouraged by the number on the scale.

I love the aches and pains of a good workout. It make me feel like I got a great workout in breaking down my muscles and preparing them for what is coming next. I can't honestly say that I love working out everyday, but I always keep my eye on the prize. I will be fit. I will be healthy. I will continue this lifestyle change.
