The Beginning

My coworker had a good time making this video, so I had to share it.  I am going out to walk with students on Fit Friday at school.  I have also followed Superintendent Shumway's recommendation to dedicate a few minutes of faculty meeting to healthy tips. I'm excited to involve others in my journey.

What Was I Thinking?

This is what I have asked myself several times since I "won" as a contestant for the Gold's Gym Utah and KUTV 2 News Body Transformation.  Gold's Gym Body Transformation - Part 2

Last Spring I remember looking in the mirror and I did not recognize who I saw.  I lost myself in being a mom, working full time, and schooling.  It was at that time I decided I needed to "find myself."  Since June, I have been working on changing my eating habits and have been successful.  I gave up Diet Pepsi and started eating healthy foods.  I lost 35 lbs. and hit a plateau.  I knew I needed to increase the intensity of my workouts, so when I heard about the Body Transformation challenge I thought I would enter.   

Wish me luck!
