Why?

Why did I finally decide enough was enough with my dangerous lifestyle of being an overweight and binge drinking mom?  I was insanely tired of being flabby and "stuck" at the same weight. Clearly, the weight was there from beer and wasn't going away due to beer. I had to either change or waste my life and be an out of it mom.

I have a friend that I met via an Organizing FB group. It took me way too long to see the helping hand she was truly trying to hand to me.  So, after a year or more of watching her achieve her goal of being a Fit Mom, I finally said yes. It was perfect timing.  She was starting a Summer Slim Down Challenge group and Focus T25 just happened to be the April special. Awesome. "Meredith, have you thought about being a coach??"  No. Heck no, actually.  However, I told her that it was completely out of my comfort zone, so I should do it. That was a great decision.

Did I sign up as a coach to possibly make money down the line? No.  I became a coach as a way to keep me accountable to my promises to myself and my family. I have tried to make this new path as public as I possibly can, so it would be utterly embarrassing, if I decide to quit.  I created an Instagram account, started following complete strangers, announced it and posted stupid pictures on my FB wall, joined an amazingly supportive challenge group, and even started a secret group on FB for moms to motivate and support other moms.

More to come once I get more of my life in order. =)
