Pain is temporary. Pride is Forever.

Hey all. I have re-written this introduction so many times. First it was a long drawn out story of how I lost 90 lbs, and kept it off even after having my second child, but then I realized that I have gained so much more than I have lost so maybe my story should be about that?

I have gained self-confidence, a love for exercising, knowledge about fueling my body with the right foods, energy to play with my kids. I have ran many races, bonded with my sister through training, met my best friend at the gym during this whole journey, and set goals knowing that with hard work I CAN achieve them!

Welcome to my page. I hope you will stick with me through my journey as I lose a little more weight, gain a little more confidence, and pursue my passion to help others achieve a healthier life.

"A marathon is a race between two people – WHO YOU ARE and WHO YOU WILL BE" - Author unknown

"It's hard to be fat, and it's hard to be thin, pick your hard."

"OBSESSED is just a word the LAZY use to describe the DEDICATED." - Russell Warren

"Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired in the morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired." -George S. Patton

"Run when you can, walk if you have to, crawl if you must; just never give up. "
-- Dean Karnazes

Thanks for sharing your story with me. You're inspiring! And I especially love the quotes you've posted; I'd like to read them over and over again on days like today, when the scale hasn't budged. You're so close to your goal weight, but you have achieved so much more than just a number on a scale. I wish you continued success--and I have every confidence in you! Cheers--

Thanks for the info on the garmin!! I'm thinking that the 305 should be fine for me, I'm not really interested in tri's. I would seriously die and go to heaven if the combined the body media band and the garmin to make something that is SUPER accurate at calculating distance, pace, AND calories burned :) haha Anyways, I appreciate it!!
