Just want to share a little something with all of you.... Trell called me yesterday and while we were on the phone, we started talking about when I let her talk me into joining the gym back in 2009 (yes, she had to talk me into it). It was so funny because she and I and another friend took our lunch breaks and went to the gym together that first day and each of us got on an elliptical because that seemed easiest. As we were stepping along, we began to huff and puff and talk rather animatedly about how we were about to die and we were only a minute into the workout. I think we only made it 2 minutes (maybe) that day and I seriously thought what was I thinking?!, but each day we would try to add a little more time. Its cool to look back at where we started that day, as well as my first day in Larrys kickboxing class (back row, back corner - PLEASE no one look at me!) and to see where I am now. I would never in a million years have imagined that I would be doing what Im doing now, but Im SO VERY THANKFUL that I am. I cant tell you that I havent had struggles in the process of getting to where I am today because I have..... Im human, too. I can tell you that every struggle and every chance that Ive had to get up after each time Ive fallen on my face or off the healthy wagon HAS been worth it. There have been many people there to help me learn through this process (Larry, Bonnie, Alice, Ramona, Trell, my Beachbody family - just to name a few), get back up after each of those falls (Angie) and been inspiration for me (Kim;s legs - I wanted legs like hers!) and I can never express in words just how much all that has meant. Its my time to pay it all forward. =)
