Why I Got Started

I was severely depressed after I had my second daughter. I was put on medication and rapidly gained weight. The weight gain on top of the depression was making life unbearable for me and everyone else around me.

My 8-year-old daughter Ellen begged me to go to mother daughter yoga because she thought it would make me feel better. She was right. Soon after I began taking pilates classes.

Those classes had full length mirrors on the walls. It was then that I was forced to really look at myself and I realized I had to make a bigger change.

How I Did It

I started researching diets and nutrition and came across this website. After lurking on the message boards for a few weeks, I decided to start following the keto diet.

The weight came off rapidly. I lost somewhere around 25 pounds in just over four months. I added cycling and resistance training to my routine and that is how I firmed up.

Training

Every week I attend pilates two times, I cycle 15 to 20 miles almost every day and I do basic training moves like situps, pushups and dips, each about 150 each per day.

I just began attending a HIIT aerobic/weightraining program that utilizes multiple reps with a 30 pound curl bar.

Suggestions For Others

My suggestion is to not give up! It took me almost two years after my daughter was born to find what worked best for me. Make the most of this website.

There are some incredibly motivational, inspirational, and helpful people here. I owe my continued success to them.
