I Am

I am 43 years old, married to a wonderful man for 14 years, mom to three children who I want to think that I am the best! I completed two rounds of Body for LIFE 8 years ago and wish I would have continued in that lifestyle, but I allowed adversity and other things to get in the way, had another child and just put "me" on the back burner ever since. I remember the feeling I had - I was on top of the world and looked good, too! I want that back. I know I can have that back and even more. I have learned and experienced a lot since then and I know I can accomplish even more now.

What? No Nachos?

Something must be wrong. Today is my free day and I'm not hungry! I don't even want nachos from Pepe's, my favorite Mexican restaurant. We went to my parents for dinner, and nothing looked good! My mom looked at me like I was crazy when I declined a glass of wine.  This is truly a phenomen...

That cannot be me in those photos!

Okay. I finally took (well, my husband actually did) my before photos. We just moved and I hadn't been able to find that darned camera anywhere.  And, now seeing those photos, I would have been fine procrasinating a little longer and seeing them another time. OMG. I am now cringing. T...

Sorry I've been a stranger! I went to Hawaii on vacation for a week, then got stranded in Honolulu 4 more nights due to hurricane Ike. Finally returned home, but still no electricity at my house. I just want to be home... besides that I'm doing good. Went to the gym today and it helped me get back in the right direction. How have you been?

Not realizing what you want is a problem of knowledge. Not pursuing what you want is a problem of motivation. Not achieving what you want is a problem of persistence. If you know who you are, make the changes you must in order to learn and grow, and then give everything you've got to your dreams, you can achieve anything your heart desires. John Maxwell

Hi Just stopping by to wish you a wonderful week ahead!

Hi There - Just stopping by to encourage you to keep hanging in there and working on your transformation. You live in OC so you know the Go, Go, Go world we live in and with kids, job, church, sports, etc, whatever, .......it can all pinch your time and reduce your focus on your transformation. Keep going because every little thing you do toward the goal will pay off. All the best, Mike.

I know what you mean by life getting in the way and falling away from fitness after some BFL success. I want that back too and I'm starting tomorrow. Good luck to you. Mike

My Favorite Charity

To me, Transformation Means

Digging deep inside, facing and accepting things that aren't so comfortable or easy. Willing to accept what can't be changed or controlled, but focus on the things that can and change them! It's up to ME!

My Goals

To stop wasting time! I want to focus on "me", but be a better wife, mom, daughter, sister and friend. I feel I've been lost and have been focusing way too much on "if onlys". The time is NOW.

My Intentions

To do this!!!!! I'm so excited!

Who I'd Like to Inspire

My son. At 11 years old he is already overweight and I can only blame myself. He is lazy and I want to make him want to be active and feel good about himself. At his age, he doesn't have the food/mind/body connection. I want to teach him that.
