I'm not going to lie. It took me 24 years before I would actually step foot in a gym. I was always so self-concious about my size and weight that I never felt comfortable working out in front of people. I got over that fear last year. It took some time for me to get serious about it, but now, working out and eating clean are part of a lifestyle that I've come to love. Exercise and eating better has really affected my mood and confidence. I feel lighter, healthier, and happier. It's only going to get better from this point.
