 I am now part of this family and love the workouts! I invested in myself because I know that I need the encouragement from a coach in a small class to get my butt moving! I'm gonna be 40 and need extra motivation.  I ran over 7mph today on an incline! I've never done that before and I been going to the gym forever.  I'm so committed to losing this weight once and for all and to being in great shape for my 40th birthday!! I can't believe I'm not 25 anymore,  lol... what a fun time it was in my 20s! I often miss those days and yet I believe the best is yet to come.  I loved OTF because: 1.

I felt like a sexy strong woman after!

Would having accolades and bigger titles made me feel more of a person and more of a success? Absolutely not! They never did to me even when I was working. I tried to hang in the corporate world while raising 3 kids and it just was not working for me. I never wanted t

 Is it just me or do many brilliant people have some sort of mental health issue? If you research you will find many famous artists, scientists, actors,  etc. all have had some sort of diagnosis.  I didn't know about Van Gogh until watching Emily in Paris on Netflix... but it made me think of how incredible it was for him to create Starry Night from an asylum.  People can do amazing things regardless of their disabilities.  On another notes, Emily in Paris is a fun show- definitely check it out.

 I am trying diet bet- win money if I lose weight and I'm trying WW- aka weight watchers. I like to try new ways of motivating myself to lose weight.  I'll check in weekly to see if it's working.  I sure hope so because my jeans are getting a little too tight!!
