I am a wife of a supportive husband & SAHM of 2 children. I've been on this life changing journey off & on for about 10 years. What kicked it into "Failure is not an option" mode was my mother's passing in January 2012. She was very overweight which worsened a heart condition that nobody knew she had. It ultimately took her life. She suffered & I want better than that for my family & myself. This is my journey.

I'm back!!!!
I've been having major computer issues the past few weeks, but just because I've been absent from my blog, doesn't mean I've been absent from my workouts!
In the past couple of weeks I've had a MAJOR personal breakthrough as far as fitness goes.
I actually JOGGED THREE HILLS for the first time EVER!
I was on a fast walk when I turned a corner & saw a hill that I previously had to walk up slowly & zig-zag up it to reach the top...being completely winded when I got there.
This day I jogged up & down the first hill, only stopping to take these 2 pictures. On the third hill the GREEN dot was the starting point. The YELLOW & ORANGE dots were my 2 minute breath catching breaks & the PINK dot was the finishing point. I JOGGED it! It was HARD for me, but I did it!
I was very, very proud of myself because I didn't give up. I just deceided I was going to do it, so I did! 6 months ago I had looked at those hills & KNEW I wasn't in good enough shape to tackle them. This time I looked at them thought " I'm jogging up those, no matter how many times I have t stop & catch my breath dam it!"
I've gone to the gym 3 times per week & as of this post, I'm bumping it up to 4 times per week.
