The Road to Transformation

I started this blog [2/20/13] to share my journey into a healthy lifestyle change. For the next 6 months I will document my physical and mental transformation while exercising and eating a delicious, nutritious, and properly portioned diet from Z.E.N. Foods. I hope to INSPIRE others while gaining inspiration from your support and interest. Keep me in check yall!

RIGHT NOW

[zenhealthnut]

The last few months have proven extremely difficult in balancing my growing career and focusing on fitness and even eating healthy. I tend to be extremely hard on myself as I'm sure most of you do too, but what I'm learning to feel is happy with who I am becoming. I may not be where I want to be 100%, but the experience of getting there has been so rewarding. 5 years ago I was 100lbs heavier and didn' t know how to get out of the place I had put myself in. Today I know what my body needs and what my body is fully capable of! I'm so much closer to where I want to be physically and mentally and I thank everyone who has shared inspiration and support along the way. Love & Light to all of you. ❤️
