Basically, this is all about my weight loss journey and mission to get and remain healthy. So many people have asked me what I've done to lose 100 pounds in a year, so I'm sharing my story. All of my successes as well as my failures and the lessons learned. Hopefully I inspire more people to make the necessary changes to live long, healthy lives.

Hello Gym -____-
The one place that I hate and love (but mostly hate) at the same time. Now I told you guys a while back about my first trip to the gym. Yeah, I almost died. That first week was killer. Scratch that, that first two months sucked!!! It was all a process. First I went three times a week for about a half hour. Those little bikes were my friend. I wouldn't dream of "running" on that "treadmill" thing ewwww. Lifting weights wasn't my thing either, I just stuck to the bikes for a minute. That was my thing. After a few months, I bumped it up to four days a week at 40 minutes each session, and using the stair climber and the eliptical. They're both great cardio machines that will have you breaking a sweat. I was still resisting that treadmill though. The main reason was that: well I run kinda funny. It's hard to explain but my feet drift off to the side and I can't run straight. But anywho, I also started the sit-up routines and felt a new kind of pain. The more pain I was in, the better my body looked. So I figured that I was doing something right. Once again, it's all a process. You want to start off slow in the gym and gradually work your way up to the big leagues. Which I had to do, and I continue to do.
