It was a dark day when I turned 40. No, it literally was a dark rainy day. But that just set the mood!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It seems like the body knows when 40 rolls around. It packs on the pounds around the stomach, hips, and thighs. Bones creak louder and your back hurts more often!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So I had to change my 8-5 cubicle routine capped off with a trip on the way home to KFC, McDonald’s, or Burger King.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I decided to start running. Well, I decided to do that, but it actually looked like walking. Or should I say that I was running, and people were walking past me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That was over 5 years ago. I am now running a mile in under 8 minutes. I’ve lost 15 pounds. My joints, back, and other parts of my body no longer hurt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I attribute all of that to a treadmill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This blog is all about my journey starting as a fluffy young woman (actually just north of 30’ish, OK, OK, just a little over 40’ish), to a fit (well….getting fitter) hot looking mom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’m trying my darndest to get back that body I had in the 20’s. Don’t think it’ll ever happen, but a girl can dream can’t she!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There’s a lot of free stuff on the Internet. Some of it is worthwhile, but plenty of it is just a waste of time. Most of the valuable information costs money in the form of a book, eBook, giving up your email address, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The reality of it all is, writing articles takes time. As well as the costs involved with website hosting, software tools to manage a blog, and buying equipment to test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We don’t plan to get rich from this blog. But we’re not rich by any means where we can spend hundreds of dollars a month out of the goodness of our heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
