The Struggle is REAL

Weight loss and becoming healthy is NEVER an easy topic. No-body including me wants to remember that Chucky version of themselves. Today I thought man, I really need people to see that I am a real person and that I struggle too. So if you have read this page you would know that in 2012 I was pretty heavy topping the scale at 205. I vowed I would never get back there...I found the motivation and strength within to make a change. I made a life style change!!! I went from 205 to 145 in less than 9 months. I worked my ars off! I became a lean machine and loved it. This is now my new "goals" picture. This picture reminds me that I CAN DO IT.






Now Lets go to being on shots to keep my miracle baby in (which I have learned 2 years later the shots I was on could either help with Weight Gain/Loss) hahahahah mine went to weight gain :(  I gained 85 pounds to keep my precious little monkey. I would do it again in a heart beat...I know what to do differently now. I knew I needed to eat, but the food choices I was making were 100% Awful...but man they tasted soooooo good. Ha jokes on me. I lost a good chunk after my little boy was born (25 pounds) leaving me with 60 pounds to make go away. I still have a ways to go but I will get there. I am happy with my progress which is the key to most anything.


Now 2 years later I scale out at 182..my goal weight is not the first picture...I was 145 there...my goal for that picture is the lean muscle you see, the body's tone definition. I am more focused on making myself feel good in my cloths and let me tell you when I have to go shopping I get excited cause that means I am working out hard, eating healthy and making the right choices. WHOOP AMEN. My journey is slow and that is ok...my first journey was accelerated and I didn't have a little one to worry about. I am here to give you hope, motivation, inspiration. We can do this. Be Proud of where you are. I am still cruising along making big strides. I couldn't be happier about working out and fueling my body for success.

PiYO Weekend

Good Morning World -- this weekend was really nerve racking and exciting all in one. I have been thru certification processes before, but WOWzer's let me tell you that holding form on and off for 7 hours after taking a Master Class is INTENSE to say the least. My body hurts in a good way! By now you are asking what in the world did this chick do??? Well, I became a Certified PiYO Instructor. Now you are asking yourself...what the heck is that? Why is that format good for me?

What is PiYOit is a total-body fitness system designed to whip you into shape from head to toe. It combines the practices of Pilates and yoga to help you build strength, lose weight, increase flexibility and have a great time doing it.

Why is this good for me: Improve Flexibility, increase your ability to gain strength, increase your cardio, improves your balance, improve your posture, and TONE your body.

I will be coming soon to a local studio along with providing "PiYO in the park" (once it gets warm again)

Please Follow me on my webpage. I offer moves of the day, meal prepping, inspirational and motivational quotes of the day and support.
