Who I am....

...Hi my name is Shannon..completely new to the world of blogging! 

I created this blog for many reason..one of them being that I am 30 years old, and I am just

starting to really discover WHO I AM, and I would love to share my life experiences with

anyone who might care to hear them.

I am obviously not going to go into huge detail about my life right off the bat..but I will

give you a little glimpse of who I am.  I am a born again Christian, Lover of Jesus Christ

1st and foremost!! Without him..I am nothing!! I am a mommy of my two beautiful

little babies, Alexander 6 and Kaitlyn 3.  I am a daughter, a sister, and a friend.

The main reason for this blog is to share with people my new found love of fitness.

I grew up the "chubby" kid, and it got worse as I got older.  At my heaviest weight

I tipped the scales at about 230 + pounds, and it wasn't until just the past year or so 

that I have reclaimed my life and gotten my health under control.  How did I do it??

Well 1st of all...I took ownership of where I was..I could make excuses and blame

situations for the weight that I had gained..but at the end of the day..I was the only

one who got me there! Then I decided that I wanted to change!  I mean..Really

Change!  I had been on diet after diet and lost weight only to gain it back my whole

life...now it was time for something different.  A LIFE change..not just another diet.

I was very unhappy with myself...just out of a bad marriage, and feeling like I was at

the bottom of the pit.  You know what the beauty of being at the bottom is??

You can only go UP baby!!  To make a long story short..once I made these

decisions I needed to put them into action.  I started the only way I knew how..

I stared eating as healthy as I could and I started moving.  Weight started coming off

and I felt better.  Then in March of 2011 I found my keys to success!! BEACHBODY 

products!  I started with Chalean Extreme, loved the results I got from that and

quickly moved onto Insanity...and those programs changed my life forever.  Now 

here I am over a year later...still working hard toward my goals. I now weigh 145lbs

and am in the best shape and health of my life.  I decided a few months ago to become

and Beachbody coach so that I could pay it forward and help others achieve their

goals, and get healthy and happy!  I am enjoying my children more, and I love

my life now..I want others to know that these things are POSSIBLE to obtain.

You have to put in the work to get the results...but Man O Man...does it feel

great to know what I have done!

~Thank you for taking the time to read my blog!  I hope as time goes on I get better at this...

Peace, Love, Health and Happiness~
