Time for a Change

www.poundpinching2010.blogspot.com has been my blogging home since I started my weight loss journey in 2010, 3 months after I had my second and last baby. It was then that I decided to make a challenge for friends and family to help each other lose weight and through that time period a spark ignited in me and I not only lost MY extra weight, but I helped lots of other people stay committed to their goals of losing their weight too.

I at some point really need to put my story into a good long post for people to understand and see me for who I was, who I am and who I am becoming but for now, quite honestly I am trying to keep my head above the water.

Balancing many hats has never been my strong suit. I usually am able to do just a couple things, very well, at one time. And the time has come to narrow that focus for me. So it is with that, I need to close the chapter to pound pinching and open the further connections I can have in the world as the fit chick mom. My business is growing rapidly and I am so thankful for those who have stood and continue to stand around me as I embrace the passion that God has given me, for helping people realize their true potential in the health and fitness industry.

It is not enough that we survive each day, going through the motions. We must thrive. We must thrive through becoming the very best versions of ourselves that we can become. Life is meant to be enjoyed, not endured. Through living our lives in a fit and healthy manner we learn that we can become unstoppable in all areas of our lives. We learn the true importance of caring for THIS body, the only body we are ever going to receive and all the amazing feelings that come with true health and balance in our lives. 

The day that I realized that I received as much exhilaration from accomplishing my own goals, as I do from helping others achieve theirs, is the day I knew I found the calling the Lord wanted me to have. A good boss once asked me "If I could put myself aside to help others achieve greatness in themselves," and I am so fulfilled, every single day by having the gift of being happy and humbled to be able to be a part of people's journeys. I know YOU can do this. You can make these changes you came here seeking to find inspiration for. You can become your most fit, most healthy, most sexy hot self. You CAN do this. You can find joy in the journey to get there, and I can help you-- #yougotthis
