Getting Fit with Steemit! - My fitness journey
Hey steemit people! I hope everyone is good and loving steemit!
I've been on my fitness journey for a few years now. Fluctuating up and down like everyone does when it comes to weight, especially after having kids ( I know other moms can relate and so can dads!) I never worked out before until after I had my first daughter (picture) I was an active person growing up, I played sports, grew up in a farm, etc. But after my first daughter I knew I would have to put effort into getting my body back. Man was it HARD!
I'd start by working out for a few weeks then life would happen and I wouldn't work out for a few weeks. It was on ongoing battle. But I did get in decent shape.
After my second child I worked out hard for 6 months straight. Then I went back to work. I had two jobs at the time so my boyfriend could stay home with the kids. I couldn't seem to find time to get any sort of working out in at all which lead me to gain around 40lbs in a year and a half.... YIKES!!
Which leads me to where I'm at now. I'm a mom of two amazing, beautiful little girls, I work two jobs and come fall ill be going back to school to finish my nursing diploma. Every morning I get up and workout without fail for the past 6 months. I've seen incredible changes! I still have the "mommy pooch", but with eating well (yes I still have cheat days because we all need those!) and working out I'm getting back to my goals with my fitness journey!
My progress to date, not exactly where I want to be, but very proud of what I've been able to do in such a short time.
