I decided that I had sat around long enough and felt sorry for myself. I had talked to a friend that mentioned there was free workout plans on bodybuilding.com. After a month of working out on my own and with a friend, I found Jamie Eason's plan and it seemed doable. So I started it and I am so unbelievably glad I did!!

I have always loved being athletic and loved working out. I strayed so far away from these things that I was afraid to go back. I knew how hard it would be and I literally feared going to the gym and being judged. Now after only a few months, I look forward to it. It took me a while to get somewhat comfortable in the weight room again, and sometimes I still feel like the big girl out of place, but I am making strides towards my goal and that is all that matters. Being back in the gym in changing me from the inside out and I can't believe I waited so long to get this part of my life back. Can't wait to see what the future holds.
