Interesting how time flies and I have gone from teen & school to mom & wife... and always looking at What Is Next?!! For me lately my what next came after I had my 3rd child. After 2 boys I got my precious little girl and I was happy... BUT... not happy when I looked in the mirror and saw what I looked like!! How could this happen to me? It had been enough time to lose the weight after my 3rd pregnancy.. (If your not one of them, have you always thought you could just rip those girls heads off who have their baby and BOOP.. right back to cuteness!.. ugh!) Well one day, it was a melt down. I became Angry, pissed and extremely depressed that I was a size (oh geez, I hate saying this.. it makes me want to PUKE..) 12. For me that wasn't normal and it didn't make me feel good. So what was I to do? I was a stay at home mom & a realtor trying to make a living, yet I wasn't happy. I couldn't seem to handle the tasks I had at hand and I thought... what the hell am I doing? REALLY?? Under the sadness my love for life came back out and I made a choice that day to pursue what I was REALLY passionate about, that was Health & Fitness. I had no idea how I would conquer that looking like a blob of jello walking around. It was time to get to work! Not long after I ran into a stranger who was visiting from an island afar and we connected instantly giggling & connecting as god intended us to and there it was... my answer to my prayers of how the heck do I get started on my goals... and in stepped a solution that has changed the way I feel, look and has given me power and passion to educate myself on what it really takes to live a healthy life & feel good. Now that I have experienced some feel good, massive energy & balance in my body, I want everyone to experience how easy it is to transform their lifestyle into one that serves a purpose for both them and their bodies both physically & mentally. It's not the overnight fix that most want, it takes time, patience & love.
As I look back to getting started on my own transformation, it wasn't easy physically or mentally, but the concept was so simple.. that is was hard:). I first had to be with the pain of how I felt being in the state of not looking good and feeling unmotivated to accomplish what I really wanted. I didn't want to have to spend alot of money to do it, and yet, the question was clear... what are you willing to pay for your Health & Well-being? It had nothing to do with money and everything to do with believing in my self and having faith that whatever I wanted, the universe & god would provide as I set out to play the game of life! The more I have talked to people (especially moms) I have realized that we are stopped mostly by our fears. I come upon my fears on a daily basis, but it's what we choose to do with that fear that will bring us success or failure.
Today I am happy to say that I went from a size 12 to a size 6 because I believed that I could. I worked hard, I learned & I was willing. I too wanted the quick fix, but a quick fix was temporary... I am happy to have a lifestyle that has not only shifted the way I look, but it's bringing me back to who I really am... Made whole, complete and perfect... you know.. in all my imperfections. I have made lifetime friends who value me, value themselves and value serving people so that we can all feel better in every aspect. When we feel better, we are happier, when we are happier we are more motivated, when we are more motivated we accomplish more and thus creating a way for us to serve other's so that we can learn, love & most of all LIV!!
