i never took working out seriously until after my first kid. i have had 2 babies and during each pregnancy i gained over 60 lbs. i ate for 2...times 40.. :) when my oldest daughter was 6 months i picked up a fitness magazine and got hooked.

i like puttin in work and having something to show for it. at night when my little ones are in bed, i can kick my ass in the gym and focus on noone but me and i like that. i like pushing myself to the furthest i can go and then pushing myself some more..i love having an excuse to get hot and sweaty to pete loeffler..ohhh yahhhhh :) -added bonus- i like the looks my husband still gives me after 8 yrs of marriage.
