Last year was the best year I've had. Ever. Period. End of story.
I was feeling the greatest, minus the ever constant health fluctuations, and I was getting out and doing new things, meeting new people, discovering passions I never realized I had; like exercise of any kind.
What kind of crazy person actually enjoys exercise you might ask?
Apparently I do!
Unfortunately even though these past Fall and Winter seasons have also been the greatest in the past 10 years I've been sick, they still don't have me feeling 100%. My health is fluctuating more than it had been in the Spring and Summer months and I just haven't found the time nor the energy when I'm feeling well enough to exercise.
Which leads me to the dreaded 'Before' pictures of this GoGo Girl Fit fitness journey. Brace yourself folks, I've gotten a little chubby these past few months...

A little about GoGo Girl Fit:
"GoGo Girl Fit wants to help women take their health and fitness
seriously. By providing a fun and sexy workout at affordable prices, we
are able to give women an easy way to get into great shape. GGF offers custom fitness and nutrition
plans, trendy dance fitness videos, choreography and
dance team audition prep."
When I was exercising at least 2 to 3 times a week, I noticed a considerable difference in my body that put a smile on my face and a pep in my step. Now that I look at these before pictures, I also notice a considerable difference that works to do the complete opposite: leave a frown on my face!
Noticeably, my stomach and mid section have definitely gained some...excess is a good word for it.
I need to do something about this 'excess' we speak of and luckily in walks Erika of GoGo Girl Fitness in the form of a contest win. This particular contest prize gave me a full 30 day custom workout plan tailored to my needs from Erika herself!
So far Erika and I have worked back and forth to create a routine that isn't too rough on my body and I and that I can do on my good days while changing things up a little bit on my better days. She's very thorough and thoughtful when it comes to the 'custom' in her custom tailored plans.
This will definitely be an adventure and I can't wait to start it and bring you all along for the ride! You can expect one to two more posts along the way: a 15 day update on my progress and a final 30 day reveal and review of GoGo Girl Fitness.

What a great challenge to get motivated!!
I wish I could get to that point where I enjoy exercising, instead of viewing it as such a chore.
I have cut back on sweet intake and that has helped. I need to start working out!!
I am just today beginning my weight loss journey so I am looking for inspiration and ideas. I had never heard of GO GO Girl so thank you for posting about it. Gotta go check it out - Good Luck to you on your fitness and health.
HAving motivation of any kind is wonderful. ANd when you spend a lot of time online, I think this is a great way to go! Keep it up!
I'm working on getting in shape too. It's one of my goals for 2014.
good for you! I hope to get myself motivated to get back into a routine.
Other than running around with my kiddos, nothing much really. ;)
Wishing you the best of luck and determination for your challenge! It will be great!
Oh you are adorable! I have been doing approximately NOTHING this winter and that needs to be changed ASAP. Can't wait to see how you like this program.
Great job! Congrats on the hard work!
That's such a cool program! Good luck!
eating better and an elliptial is being delivered on thursday :)
What a fantastic challenge.
I don't think it will take long to tone up at all. You're in pretty darn good shape already. Good luck!
We try to have at least 30 minutes a day where we are on the move and active. Thanks for sharing!
walking more at work!
I wish I could maybe this Spring because we finally found a medication that is helping me. Woo Hoo! It's called Cymbalta. hugs CM
More exercise is one of my 2014 goals, not only to lose a few pounds, but also just because I feel better when I'm active. A customized plan would absolutely rock, and make me more likely to stick with it.
You go girl!! How cool that you will get to have fun while taking care of the "excess"
