No more excuses!

And so begins my journey to a healthier, happier, stronger me. I don't hate my body, but I need my body to take me places. I am accepting of my body. I know I will never be a supermodel. I will never be super skinny or super toned, but that's not what I want. I want to be healthy, happy, and strong. I not only need this for my job in the future (police officer/military), but I need this for me, for life.

Working out has never been a problem for me. I actually really enjoy working out, it's just trying to curb the excuses for not having time to do it, and all the other excuses I have used in the past. My biggest excuse now is my knee, but I cannot and I will not allow my knee to hold me back anymore. I'm addicted to working out. I start with a few times a week which then quickly leads to multiple times a day because I love the feeling it gives me, but then it stops. Why? Because life gets busy and I try to convince myself that I don't have time between school, work, volunteering, family, friends, and everything else. We like to call that an excuse. I'm full of excuses I know, but the excuses stop now. I don't care if I lose weight, I just want to be able to run and be fit again. I miss having the dancer legs or the softball arms. One day....

I currently weigh the most I have in my entire life (190 eeeek!!!) but that's about to change. Watch out world, here I come!
