My personal motto: To honour my body every day.

My story: I am a mother of three, one of whom has autism, and I’ve been fit and healthy my whole life.  I grew up with a mother who valued healthy eating and regular physical activity.  In a family of fit people, I was the little one.  My mother and my older sister were always working on those “last 5 pounds”, but their weight fluctuated from good to great.

I first heard about the 10-Week Challenge on Facebook.  I was looking for something to spice up my fitness life.  I had recently lost 8 lbs, which is a pretty big deal on my small frame and I was ready to take my fitness up a notch. My expectation was simply that I’d have a new and challenging gym routine, but I ended up getting so much more! 

The 10 week challenge was the catalyst I needed to start dealing with food issues that I never even knew existed!  Because I had never had to worry about my weight, I ate whatever I wanted and my relationship with food got very out of control.  I’m still working on it, but I know that my life and my point of view on health and fitness have changed forever.  I thought that after I had 3 children, I would never get my body back and the challenge completely changed my perception of what is possible.

I ended up winning the 10-Week Challenge and I completed the 12-Week Challenge and I’m more motivated than ever!  I forgot how much I loved weight training and seeing all those pretty muscles start to show.  I live by my personal mission statement, part of which is to “honour my body every day”.  I’m learning new ways to do that and I’m excited to go to the gym and watch my body change!
