Hey Everyone!

My name is Jen* and I am here because I recently began working from home and find myself slowly gaining weight and losing energy. I am a pretty outgoing person, but I have noticed my favourite clothes getting pretty snug these days
I want to quit smoking, eat better and trade weight for muscle and strength!!!

Now, just to stick with it!!!

    Hi there!

    I can really relate to your situation. I started working much more from home starting last summer. For the first few months I gained weight because I did much more sitting around than when I had to walk from my parking structure to my office, etc. I have now learned to let the situation work for me. I use my lunch hour at home to either go to the gym or do an hour of excersise at home. Once I changed my mindset - it really worked for me. Good luck!
