I've been tossing around the idea for awhile now of starting a blog about fitness and nutrition. This is something that's become a big passion of mine in the last several years. I've experienced firsthand the effects of treating my body like I should. I love the ongoing effects of what is, essentially, a journey. I never have to reach a point in my fitness regimen or wellness plan where I say, "Okay, that's good enough." I love pushing my limits, meeting my goals and then setting even higher ones. In general, I'm not a picture of health. I have many medical issues that just seem to be a part of my genetics. However, staying active and eating well is doing my part to control what I can and give my body the biggest advantage possible.
I like to think of myself as a down-to-earth person with a realistic approach to leading a healthy lifestyle through diet and exercise. Do I work out every single day? Nope. Do I live on celery and salads and always shun dessert? Heck no. Do I have a perfect body? *snort* I'm all about balance (and Reese's peanut butter cups, but that's a topic for another day) and finding a happy medium between perfection and neglect. I've come to love exercise and clean eating because it's what the body responds to positively. When I treat it right, I see results and feel great. While I love the science behind fitness and nutrition, I love feeling fantastic even more. I love seeing what the human body is capable of when trained and nourished the way it was intended to be.
So... wherever you are on your own wellness journey, feel free to jump in and join me on mine. I hope that you'll find lots of motivation, encouragement, and humor (!) from my own experiences. I'm building a body to last a lifetime and I hope you'll join me.
