I'm a 29 year old stay at home mom on a mission to get my family healthy. Let me take you back to December 23, 2008, that's where MY mission began.
My then 9 month old son, Zachary, was up all night long with a tummy ache, and as I heard him cry through the monitor I knew he needed me. As I went to get out of bed I felt like a metric ton weight was pushing me back and when my feet hit the floor
I'm a 29 year old stay at home mom on a mission to get my family healthy. Let me take you back to December 23, 2008, that's where MY mission began.
My then 9 month old son, Zachary, was up all night long with a tummy ache, and as I heard him cry through the monitor I knew he needed me. As I went to get out of bed I felt like a metric ton weight was pushing me back and when my feet hit the floor I couldn't even stand up without horrible pain. My first thought was "I must be really tired", my second thought was " enough is enough, I can't live this way anymore". I couldn't even make it down the hall to my son with out being in pain. I'm 5'2" and I was weighing in around 265 pounds, wearing a size 24/26 in clothes. While I'm not nearly done with my mission I can boldly state that I'm down 115 pounds, wearing a size 10, and 25 pounds away from my initial goal. I knew that I never wanted to feel like I couldn't get to my son. I knew that I never wanted to be the "fat" mom dropping off cupcakes to his Kindergarten class one day, and have all of the kids wonder how many I consumed on the way to the school. I knew I needed to do something and I wasn't going to do it alone. I'll be honest, I had tried millions of times to lose weight and become healthy all just to lose a few pounds here and there only to gain back more each time. YOU have to WANT this! And friends, you have to want it for YOU. While I wanted to do this for my son and husband, to be the mom and wife I knew I could be, deep down I really wanted it for ME. I wanted to be the girl I knew was hiding somewhere inside of me. Becoming a Beachbody Coach will allow me to reach even more people who are ready to make a lifestyle change but are unsure where to begin. I'm here to be YOUR cheerleader, your shoulder, your ear, and more importantly your MOTIVATOR. I want today to be your day to put away the unhealthy life you've been living and start feeling AMAZING! We can do it together!
