I started last year around August b/c I had a cruise in late September I wanted to get in better shape for. Plus, I was slowly but steadily gaining weight. I ended up losing 40 lbs! Now, it's over a year later and I've gained about 20lbs back. I refuse to move up in my jean size and I'm ready to get in shape and STAY WITH IT this time.

1.) It makes me feel better, mentally physically!
2.) Gives me something to look forward to!
3.) It gets me out of the house and motivated!
