Why change??

Why change our physical appearance? Well Why Not??? First and formost health is a very important reason we decide and take the first step into a new way of life. A healthy life that is. Doing the assignments Bill has given us has definately opened my eyes and other people's I'm sure. Last night...

Words are Forever, Chose them well

I can remember all the times kids were mean to me in school because I had red hair. My basketball coach in 7th grade called me the "big girl" because I played the forward position and was only good at rebounding and not at dribbling. I was a size 12/14 and an athlete. One person made me se...

Christi: Don't let the criticism of others get to you. If you do, you are letting your ego win. You have set a higher standard for yourself by choosing a more healthy life. Let yourself feel and enjoy the rewards. Take your Chicken to the dinner and BE PROUD of treating your body kindly. The others criticize becaue of their own pain! Be strong like I know you can be! Love ya, Lisa

I Am

I am a wife to Jim my best friend and a mother to three awesome kids, Bryce, Lark and Faith. I want to do more and be more for my family and this extra weight holds me back. ( but not for long) I am a daughter to Robin and Jim who have taught me to love others and give to those in need. As an older sister to Mandy and Luke I have taken care of things without being asked because I am the oldest sibling. I like to live life to the fullest because you never know what may happen. (I learned this at 19, when my Aunt Lark died at the age of 36,mother of 4) I feel young at heart and in spirit. I love my family and for them we all transform this year together.

To me, Transformation Means

To transform my body, mind, and soul would be the ultimate
transformation to me. To successfully transform to me means changing your attitude for food, exercise and your overall health forever. The life style change just takes over and you don't even have to think about what to eat or how much protein it just becomes part of the everyday. Changing how I look at myself and loving myself regardless of size would be the ultimate transformation.

My Goals

My 18 week goal is to get back to the shape where I can at least walk for 30 minutes without my nagging foot pain kicking in. I will only heal the foot/heel pain by losing weight. Losing 45lbs would help this therefore becomes my goal. Wearing jeans comfortably and not sweatpants everywhere is another goal. Walking a 5k this spring has finally become a reality so training everyday for that is something I plan to do.

My Intentions

Working out every morning and helping my kids with exercise after school is a plan I've made. They love to do it and it gives us time to hang out. Planning out meals and keeping only good food in the house is something I feel can help not only me but my family. Living by example is very important to me so I will make sure we do that around our family and friends.

Who I'd Like to Inspire

I'd like to inspire the people who feel hopeless and discouraged. Maybe because due to lack of money to join a gym. I'd also like to inspire my family who has always loved me for who I am. To show anyone who knows me that change can happen if you let it would be the best outcome of this transformation. I cannot wait to say "look if I can do it, you can too". :)
