A little bit about me..

Welcome, welcome! I'm Amy, I'm a Christian, mother of 3, married to one man! I am on a journey to a fit/healthier life for myself and my family. I have learned that changing your life is often more mental than physical. Believe you can and you're halfway there!

I started my fitness journey in February 2013 when I purchased a treadmill to 'walk' on! I have since discovered I am a runner! I still have to walk some but I RUN! I try to do a variety of exercises to tone and shape my whole body, with 105 lbs to lose when I started, it is needed! I have changed my eating habits and my whole family now eats cleaner! I live by the motto " Know your limits, then defy them!"!

To date I have lost 74+ lbs and 93.5 inches. I don't have an exact lb lost because in February 2013 when I stepped on my scale it wouldn't weigh me. It had a 325 lb limit. Talk about a wake-up call! What I have gained is much more than what I've lost. I have self-confidence and an inner strength I didn't know I possessed. I know it comes from the Lord because if you had told me a year ago that I would be a runner and training for my first half marathon, I would of laughed in your face. I'm excited to see how far I have come and will go. I strive to let the Lord use me for His purpose. I'm finding out who I am supposed to be and it brings a peace I've never known.

I started a Facebook page at my 6 month 'fitversary' because I had several people tell me I am inspiring- I thought yeah right! But then I started to realize that everyone needs a little motivation and encouragement, if sharing my story could inspire then what the hey! So that's what my page and blog is about- my journey, faith, motivation & inspiration! I am nothing without Christ! I encourage you all to invite him into your heart and life, you won't be sorry!

Have a blessed journey!
~Amy
