Proud Moment

bethdris

On March 13 of this year I decided I need to change my body. It had to be a life long attainable change. I am a mom of 3 very active little boys, whom I need to be able to keep up with.

I started out only able to work out about 14-20 mins without feeling totally winded and very tired. I rid our pantry of all the "junk" food items. Thus the journey began!

I used to live to eat, now I eat to live!

I have worked myself up to an hour a day sometimes longer, 6x a week of good cardio exercise. I have totally changed my food chocies and all for the better. I do have the occasional sweet treat, but it's limited. I don't feel deprived, I feel energized and full of life.

So in 9 weeks I've lost 40.8 pounds! I still have another 20+ to go, but I feel I have the ground worked laid, and in time the rest will come off.
