During a doctors visit July 2013, I found out I had diabetes, high blood pressure, and arthritis. At that point I made it a commitment to slim down and live a healthier lifestyle. As of this post, I'm down 43 lbs, there is no more sign of diabetes and the high blood pressure is non existent. Now it's time to get to business and push the envelope further to achieve my goals. Who's with me?

I do it now because I love going to the gym. I love pushing myself further each session. I enjoy getting out and enjoying nature and all of the beauty it holds. In addition to hitting the gym, I try to get a new hike in every week. Another way to meet wonderful new friends.
