About

Who I am not…

I am not a fitness or nutrition expert, just a regular mother of four who struggles to stay in shape in the midst of a busy family and work life, not to mention pregnancy and postpartum weight gain!  Here’s a little info about how I came about starting this website in order to begin an exchange of nutrition and fitness ideas to help us all.  I have definitely found a goldmine of information and motivation that has truly worked for me and given me the results that I always hoped for.  However, you should always ask your doctor before beginning any fitness or nutrition program.  As well, you should verify with professionals any information you gain from my website.

I got serious about getting into shape…

Around the time that my first son was born, my mom accomplished her own weight loss success story when she lost over 50 pounds after joining an innovative women’s “gym” called Curves.

I joined Curves as well and was pleased when my body quickly began to change.  I loved the convenience of working out only 30 minutes a day and I could run in and out on my way to or from work.

Once I became pregnant with my third son, however, the little women’s gym that I had loved was not convenient anymore.  Five months after having child number three, I decided it was time to set up some kind of home workout area.

Luckily I found some workout videos and other resources that helped me to combine tools from several nutrition and exercise experts.  With the right tools and resources I was able to accomplish my weight loss goals.

I became passionate about sharing with other moms what worked for me…

From then on I have explored new ways to workout and have found so many resources that contributed to my success that I felt I just had to share them with other moms. I know so many moms who resign themselves to being overweight, tired, cranky and overall unsatisfied with their lives. I am hoping that you and I can encourage each other to strive for better than that through this website.
