Embracing who I am. Sounds good, right?

I'm not going to lie! Being a big girl (I'm 6'0 tall and a large frame) has always been tough for me. Add being overweight and it's the formula for a self loathing disaster! But recently, something has changed in me! I quit smoking about 7 months ago. After I left that behind, I realized I am much stronger than I thought I was. So, I started hitting the gym a few times a week. I was pretty passive about it. I didn't know what to do or how to do it. It was intimidating. I knew it was time to step it up and do something more. My best friend turned me on to a company called Advocare. They are a great company that has these great health and wellness products. They offer an incredible product called "The 24 Day Challenge." It's a complete health and wellness packages that helps your lose inches and pounds but most importantly, it is a program that leads you into living a healthier life. You should check it out! You won't be sorry! I'm on day two of the challenge and I feel really great! I'm working out six days a week and it's because of the energy boost I get from my daily Spark drinks! Tip: if You are looking for a healthy energy boost that doesn't cause you to crash and isn't loadeD with sugar, try the Spark Energy Drink! It's awesome and they offer a ton of different flavors! I love the fruit punch. That's all for now! I'll be back as I take my life back in 24 short days!

Today! The First Day of the Rest of My Life!

There is this expression that gets thrown around quite often. "Today is the first day of the rest of your life." There are many ways to interpret this expression. Typically it indicates someone is making a big change in their life. For myself it means I'm tired of being unhealthy, overweight and limited physically. today is the day I am changing all of that! I have begun the Advocare 24 Day Challenge! I'm very excited and mentally ready to be the woman I want to be! I don't care about inches and pounds. I care about a strong heart and a healthy body! Don't get me wrong, if I lose weight and a few inches off my rear, I'm not going to complain about it! I'm a late bloomer when it comes to health and fitness. I'm intimidated by the beautiful people at the gym. Honestly, they have all been very nice. They are just so damn perfect! Me the big sweaty girl on the treadmill. I'm positioned between a size 4 marathon runner in full makeup and matching workout gear, and a man that was so buff and HOT that I couldn't even look at him out of fear that he could read my mind and know exactly what I was thinking.
