A little update about me

Aug 30, 2016

I am now 36yrs old. Got sleeve surgery in 2010 when i was 30. I lost 90lbs. Got pregnant, gained about 25-30lbs. But after i gave birth thats when the weight ballooned bc i was stressed, eating very badly, not sleeping and completely let myself go. I was so focused on my baby that i couldn't handle anything else. Took me till he was a year old to finally focus up me. In jan of 2014 i decided i was finally going to get rid of this giant pannus holding me down. I spent a year trying every exercise, every way of eating, and started getting into supplements. I worked my ass off. I only lost 30lbs but i was in the best shape of my life. The following march i had my full extended tummy tuck. It took me a long time to fully recover. I found myself with very little energy, not much strength or stamina and just a shell of my former glory. That's when I found Thrive. It was excatly what I needed at the time and it found me. I'm grateful for that because it changed my life. It helped me get out of the hole i was digging for myself and get back to the old me that i had worked so hard to become. 

I've been Thriving for a little over a year now. I love it even more now than ever. I did let myself go over the holidays, because i'm human, and i put on some weight. But it was in June of this year i decided to once again focus on my health. I'm back to doing T25 and my muscles are popping and i love it. I feel strong again. This time last year I was thinner but thats because i was doing intermittent fasting prior to Thrive bc i didn't have the energy to workout so i just focused on diet. I didn't do it correctly, it backfired. Also i may have been thinner but lost all my muslce. This time i'm doing it correctly. I'm not so focused on weight. i'm more focused on shaping my body. getting stronger, more defined. its great to be in this place again. So grateful to be Thriving and feeling my best. Now my husband and my parents Thrive too. But of course my friends want nothing to do with it. lol. can't say i blame them. i felt the exact same way when i first heard about Thrive. But thats ok. They'll come around and thank me later. Whoever tries it or doesn't try it doesn't change the fact that i love it. It's changed my life and i will keep Thriving! :)

Right now I'm currently trying to get back to where i was before surgery, in peak shape, and also trying to conceive baby #2. :)

Hope you all are having success on your journies! :)
