“Change is the essence of life. Be willing to surrender what you are for what you could become.”

So I guess it all started when I woke up one Monday morning in March of 09 and just about had it with myself personally with being overweight. I remember looking in the mirror that day and was just completely disgusted to the point where I just broke into tears. I knew I had to something about it as this was not the person I wanted to be anymore. In my 20's, I was always an active girl that kept in good shape. Once I hit 30, I seemed to have lost that ambition and I can't quite explain why. I so wanted to be that girl again that kept a healthy lifestyle so I decided that was exactly what I was going to do. I was about 60 pounds over weight. I knew it was going to be a long road but I was ready. I knew what I had to do, I just needed that extra push and motivation to get me back on track so I joined Jenny Craig. It truly was one of the best experiences of my life. It wasn't just about eating their food. They taught me a lot about nutrition and how to implement it to my life. I was actually doing it now, and not just wishing it would just magically happen by itself. I got back into working out and I've never felt better. I feel like I am in better shape now then I was 10 years ago. It's not always easy working out as much as I like to, but you have to just find the time somehow. It has been been a year and a half now and I have successfully kept the weight off. In my next blog, I will go into further detail about my Jenny Craig journey and how its led me here. Stay tuned....
