One year ago if you would have told me that
I would be asking for weight lifting straps,
running shoes, heart rate monitors and
gym bags, I would have laughed at you
and said you were crazy! Today, fitness is
in my blood. I live it, breathe it and taste
it. I have sweated, cried and been so sore
I could not roll out of bed, lost toenails,
sustained a few injuries and bled! Still, I
continue my journey! People say “Terri,
what have you done? What kind of DIET
(I despise that word) are you on!” It is no
diet! This is a lifestyle change so I can live
longer, breath deeper, be healthier and
give my children a good role model.
Over a year, I have lost over
three feet across my entire body
in inches. I have lost 45 pounds. I have gone from a tight size 16 to a size 7. I have
muscles! I am happy! I can breathe! Although, I must say riding the heels of my loved
ones midlife “change” has been a very interesting ride! I love my life now and I hope to
motivate and inspire others to make the same kind of change.
Terri and her husband, Clint
