In the summer of 1993 I made the decision to change my life, 2 years after my second child was born, I was overweight, and not happy about myself, thinking this is motherhood. Most new moms usually have 10-15 lbs. to loose after one child, I had 45 after 2. Then my new very fit neighbor moved in across the street, one sunny day she was mowing her lawn in her short shorts, while her 4 children unde
r the age of 8 ran around … that was it … that’s all it took, if she could do it so could I, we became very good friends, I was addicted to fitness, going as far as getting my certification in group fitness in 2002
Unfortunately I had a setback , with children’s activities and my husband starting a new company, my fitness took a back seat ,going on to get an office job for 4 years ,I was not happy about gaining 15lbs, I felt awful all the time, and had no energy
Thankfully that job ended, and I had the chance to regain my healthy lifestyle back, going from an recreational runner, have now completed 7 half marathons and 2 full marathons in just the last 3 years
Wanting to inspire others to gain the confidence to live a healthy lifestyle, I have reentered the fitness industry and am now certified as BCRPA personal training , group fitness leader and currently enrolled in fitness nutrition and acquiring my ACE personal trainer certification
This is just the beginning for me, I will continue to educate myself to give my clients the most current, up to date and innovative personal training experience
