I have always, with the exception of the temporary insanity years when my boys were young, tried to stay active and take care of myself. My days now are filled with working in a corporate office mixing in workouts before, during and after work, then off to various different social events in the evenings and weekends.
My hobbies seem to have gone by the way side but I am going to take them up again. My boys got me into building small wooden ships, and no, not the ones in the glass bottles. I also enjoy wood carving.
My youngest son is a graduate with in Theatre and Acting from UNC in Greeley Colorado in 2009. Like every other parent alive I wish him nothing but the best. He has occasionally been caught working out with P90X and think his favorite is Yoga lol!
My oldest is a soldier, just returning into active duty after recovering from a serious accident in Airborne training. He will, when all is said and done be a member of SF (Special Forces) I know this to be so because of his determination. I would hope that he gets that from me :) He has developed his own routines from a mix of P90X, INSANITY, One on One so he can perfect a program that he can use anywhere regardless of equipment availability.

ok, my transformation . . . probably starts way back as a little girl. Being the youngest of four I have always followed in the footsteps and been compared to my older siblings, specifically an older athletic brother that excelled. That was the beginning of my yoyo lifestyle.
We always made meals from scratch, with butter, fresh whole milk that you had to scrape the cream off the top, red fatty meat, sugar etc. and in fact our lifestyle seemed to revolve around food. Bar-B-Q's, hosting cocktail and dinner parties, ice cream socials, etc etc etc.
I love food but struggled with the weight gains. Mom would come home with the fad diet of the month. Liguid diets, protein diets, Atkins, then there was the Scarsdale diet that was fabulous but not long lasting. How about the cabbage soup one! Yuk.
I was active but always struggled. After getting married and having my boys so close together (13 months) didn't help matters. Finally signed up with one of those diet centers and had to drive in and weigh in Monday through Friday and was scared to death over the weekend to see what Monday would bring. They had me only eating 500 calories a day. I did lose all the baby weight but was given bad habits. It wasn't until I found this Life Enhancement Clinic that I discovered I had an underactive thyroid (most likely due to the fad diets) also found out my body was not matabolising protein well and was not producing a normal balance of hormones. All that money I was spending on personal trainers was so aggrevating . . until I was put on natural supplements to boost my bodies own natural production. I lost 27 pounds in three and a half weeks and was finally able to see all the hard work I had been doing.
Now I have developed a gluten and dairy intolerance and who knows what else.
It has been about two years now since my bike collided with that car and I have finally taken up riding again. I participated in my first organized ride In April, a 50 mile ride in the foothills and I got lost. (long story) I made up for it by riding in another at 62 miles and finished strong on the right track.
Progress is what it is all about.

05/30/10 OK, so I never would have guessed that 35 minutes of Brazilian dancing would make your hind end burn so quickly but as much as I enjoyed that I have swapped up my plans.
Tomorrow I start "INSANITY" More ... 05/20/10 I'm excited again! It is spring time in the Rockies and the grass is green, flowers blooming and time to make me feel like I'm blooming too.
In an hour I will be trying out the new Brazil Butt More ... View Blog
