ABOUT ME

My name is Jen and thank you for visiting my blog -- I'm very excited to share my love for all things related to fitness & health with you!

Just to give you a little background on myself, I am a fun loving 30-something Marketing Professional living in Los Angeles, which I enjoy but what I am really passionate about is fitness & health. Having once been overweight and painfully insecure, it is my mission to live a healthy well balanced life in mind, body and soul. If I can help just one person along the way, my job here is done.

The biggest question that I get asked is "how did you do it?" referring to my 50+ lbs weight loss. I will tell you it was not easy. From my teenage years on, I tried every fad diet, diet pill and gimmick out there, which only resulted in yo-yo dieting and feelings of self-doubt. It wasn't until about five years ago that I finally found the answer...


IT'S NOT A DIET, IT'S A LIFESTYLE!

Five years ago I made a commitment to myself to live a healthier lifestyle. I stopped eating crap and I started eating real whole foods. I started reading nutrition labels more closely looking beyond just the calorie count and educated myself about what I was putting into my body. I got off the couch and moved more. I created my own gym routines, sampled a variety of group fitness classes and began practicing yoga. All of which has led me to the healthier more confident yoga-spin junkie that I am today!

I hope you enjoy reading my blog. Please feel free to share your own tips, leave feedback or email me directly. And remember to Live Well & Laugh Often -- what fun is life if you can't get a little chuckle!
