During the Summer of 2011 I got extremely unhealthy physically and was hospitalized twice. After my second hospitalization I got incredibly motivated to take care of myself and to be as healthy as I could possibly be. I knew that the only way to do that was to eat right and exercise regularly. After just the first time of going to the gym I was immediately hooked.

Whenever I go to the gym no matter how bad my day may have been the time I spend at the gym is time for myself and always makes me feel better. Also I love it when I am able to lift more weights than I could the day before, awesome feeling! Exercising and being healthy isn't just a passing phase, it's a way of life and one I plan to stick with for the rest of my life.
