Turning 30

Hi everyone!

I recently found some old photos from when I was 20 and I couldn't believe how much I've transformed. I'm hoping to get back to how fit I was back then and change the bad habits that got me to where I'm at by my 30th b-day in April.

I will be vigilant in achieving my fitness goals and will be someone who you can count on whenever your feeling demotivated.

Add me as a friend and hopefully we can feed off of one another's energy and enthusiasm to beat the part of ourselves that's willing to settle for less than our best.

    I'm roughly the same age...in the same situation. The 1 drawback is the general public thinking you are immature, unexperienced, etc. Good job on the transformation though! I just can't wait until 50yo or so when people will really notice

    You're welcome. :] I'm sure we all do! I tried this thing last summer and I felt so overwhelmed that I cried and gave up, but I also didn't have the encouragement then that I do now which makes it a lot easier this time. :]

    Yeah, it's really hard to make this sort of change. I did it once before and thought I'd never go back to the old me but here I am again. We got it for sure this time though!

    Exactly. Changes aren't easy, but it'll be worth it in the end. I absolutely hate changes and I'm incredibly impatient, so I understand how difficult this is, but I'm also determined when I want something and that's what will get me there.
