Starting Over

Hello Star Members!

So here is the deal. I need help...ok I said it! How embarrassing!

The Story: I was in great shape up to about 3 years ago before "life - school, work, kids, added stress" got in the way of my normal workout routine and I just stopped going. Since then I have gained weight. I have been on the roller coaster ride ever since. I need to take action as I am tired of feeling and looking this way. I joined Star for motivation and to be inspired. There are truly some amazing and great people here who are living their dreams, I am so proud to be a part of this group.

My Barriers: I have come to accept that I am my own worst enemy and need to have that someone who will make sure I am on track no matter what.

My Goals: My goal is to reach my ideal weight (115-120 lbs) by Christmas. I am an alternative health provider but it is hard to have clients believe in you if your not in great shape yourself...so now is the time. I am very very very interested in being a fitness model and perhaps even competing in competitions.

Possible Solutions: I live in Niagara Falls and if it was possible to meet to setup a workout routine and menu plan on a bi-weekly/monthly basis with someone locally it would help me a great deal. Now I realize that there are many options out there on doing this, however, my financial abilities are very limited raising a family (2 teenagers) on my own but I do have a membership with GoodLife. I have access to the equipment I need to do the workout. Now I just need some help and someone to kick me in the butt to keep me on track. Even a virtual buddy who I have to report to would be awesome because it would still be someone other than myself pushing me along. I know once I hit the 30 day mark I should be ok but it is just re-establishing that workout routine again that I have the most trouble with.

I have posted two pictures of what I looked like 3 years ago and I have posted one from November 2007 and even now I have gained weight since then.

So I am pleading, I know you are all busy but I would be so grateful for any help anyone can offer to help me get on track! Can someone help me???

Thank you for reading this and to those who can offer some help/guidance, please email me.

All the best in all that you do!!!

Much Love,

Sheri Lynn
