My name is Erin. I live in Choctaw, Oklahoma. I have two kids, a husband, a menagerie of animals and I want to keep calm and keep moving. And, get fit.
This was me in May of 2011. I was almost 365 pounds. I had tried to lose weight SO many times. It started with my pregnancy with my son in the year 2000 and it took 11 years for me to find the courage and self worth to do something about it.
This is me now...
This was May of 2012...I weighed 185 pounds. What a difference a year makes.
It is January 13th, 2013. I have gained about 15 pounds from the picture above. I blame loss of focus, busy and any number of excuses on the weight gain. BUT, I'm back and ready to get the rest off!!
You see where I've been...now here is where I want to be.
Goals...I have 70 pounds to lose. I think that 130 is a very healthy weight for me, and very fit weight. It won't be "skinny" that's not what I want. I want MUSCLE, and TONE, and DEFINITION! I'm hoping to get it off around the 2 year anniversary of starting my weight loss...May or June of this year. I'm not going to lose my mind if I don't reach this goal, BUT it's still my goal.
I am starting training TODAY for 2 half marathons, one in February and one in April. I have a few bike rides I want to do.
I also cross fit. This is still relatively new to me and I hope to blog more about my crossfit experience. It's awesome, though. I truly believe that crossfit is the key to getting me to my ultimate goals and the ultimate body and health that I want.
For the next 6 weeks, I am being personal trained by one of the trainers from my crossfit gym as well. So, I will be training 5 days a week between crossfit and my personal training sessions. Plus running at least 5 times a week.
So, this is me in a nutshell and the reason for this blog. To honestly discuss my journey to be the best that I can be.
Keep calm and keep moving!
