Originally, I got started in college because I noticed how fat I had gotten in a picture. My brother had joined a gym and was losing weight and motivated me to do the same. I have now had 2 kids and want to get back to being fit. I want to like what I see in the mirror, not a "mom" who has given up on her appearance.

I love working out because it's my "Me Time". I have the time to myself, think about only me and my goals. I can shut out the world. I love the feeling after like I have accomplished a big task. The feeling that comes over my body, euphoric.
