Just when you think that you cant take another step….

Wow….what a hike and what a great day. Tough dosent even begin to describe it. We did our daily hike at BackBone Lantigo. This was a tough hike because igt was narrow and straight up hill and then down!!!! There was a woman on the hike that did had a PB by running down the trail. A full mile down the rocks and MADE it. I was so proud of her because she just said that morning how she wishes she could do a mile run and she did it. The rest of the day was information packed and killer cardio and training classes. We had a speaker on self-esteem where we had to write down 10 things we liked and disliked about ourselves. I’m confident that by the end of my week here i will have eliminated some of those dislikes and will be able to add to the likes.

Until tomorrow…Keep Healthy and stay tuned……

wow.. today is finally here

 Today is finally here.  i’m waking up and getting ready to go check in to the Biggest Loser Resort.  I’ll be blogging everyday on the experiences and new things i’ve learned to keep you on the healthy lifestyle you’ve chosen.  More to come from California. 

10 Days till Malibu!!!

I have never been so excited in my life.  In ten days I’ll be in Malibu motivating people to lose weight and make healthy choices in their life.  Im no expert thats for sure but I do know how hard it is to lose weight on your own and make your mind stick to a path that will benefit you the rest of your life.

I wish i knew the magic words to use to make it simple but there are none.  You have to find it in yourself to know your worth the change and make it happen.  We all have the special part of us that makes us know that we are worth the challenges and the ups and downs that changing your life can bring.  But if anyone knows its possible its ME!!!  And I will motivate you and share with you all my triumphs and yes…all my downfalls along the way.  

Labor Day Weekend!!!

This was a very exciting weekend for me.  With Naperville’s Last Fling right in my back yard how could I not go there and see all the vendors, music,friend and food.  The food is so tempting at the fest.  Funnel cakes, Crab cakes, ice cream, French fried potato curls, hot dogs, corn dogs, pretzels, fresh squeezed lemonade, Slurpee’s, and the list goes on from there.  I was lucky enough to be part of the Health and Wellness booth presented by Naperville’s Chamber of Commerce! Handing out goody bags to those who were not familiar with the Chamber brought awareness that there are more people out there concerned about their health then ever before.  Being a fitness “freak” like I am it was so inspiring to see.  Partnering up with my Best Friend Carla Linder-Mayer who also owns and operates Reality Fitness in Naperville we are bringing the fun to fitness.  Like myself, Carla has had an amazing weight loss journey of her own.  We call ourselves the over “300lb weight loss twins” because between us that’s what we have lost.  We will be training and conducting weight loss motivational groups at Reality Fitness starting as soon as Tomorrow.  We walked in the parade with shirts on announcing our weight loss and handed out flyers inviting everyone to join us for fitness and fun. It was so neat to see how many people congratulating us on our success. Join us and we’ll be doing the congratulating when you reach that

goal that you set. no matter what that goal. Come see us at Reality Fitness 39 W. Jefferson Naperville IL.  630-357-7087

Getting Ready for the Parade. Reality Fitness where your Fitness goals become Reality.
