A bit about me...I'm a single mom to a wonderful 9 year old boy, Anthony, have a 2-1/2 year Yorkie-maltese mix dog, Moxy Girl, full time and have 10 weeks left on my Health Coaching certification program. I am one those people that actually enjoys going to the gym and exercising. I just don't have the time to.
But I wasn't always that the case. The morning before having Anthony I topped the scales at 218 pounds. Yes some of that was baby, but most of it was eating whatever I wanted while pregnant. Nine months after Anthony I lost one of the most important person in my life, my mom to obesity. It took me awhile but I saw I was following in her steps despite always liking fitness. It just wasn't a priority. In 2005, I made it a priority and within 6 - 8 months lost the final baby weight plus an extra 10 pounds for good measure.
I'm now looking to lose those sticking 10 pounds again.
My goals for this challenge are:
Drop 10 pounds
Drop 6.6% body fat
Exercise consistently
Make some great connections that help foster a healthy lifestyle
What a great introduction Kim! These are also great goals. It goes to show for all of us that even those of us who likes to work out that even when we have the education and enjoyment for activity it can still be a day to day struggle to make it a priority because of everything else we have going on in our lives. I know you can do this! I've seen your dedication and I have faith that you can meet your goals. I am also very excited that you will be completing your Health Coaching certification during this 12 week challenge! You'll have to keep us all posted on your progress. :) I'm glad your here!
