Fitness Friday: The Welcome Back Edition

Hi there! I'm Brenda, and I host Fitness Friday. If you don't know what Fitness Friday is, you can click here to look back at some old posts. The older posts are at the bottom.

Anyway, this is the place where I post every week about my fitness, and then I put up a Mr. Linky to invite others to do the same. You can come here every Friday and click on everyone's links to get encouragement on your fitness journey. You can post too if you have a blog. We'd love to have you join us!

I was skinny all my life until I had children. Then ever so slowly the pounds have crept on and I find myself now at a size that I do not like. Also, I am out of shape.

The idea for Fitness Friday began during an e-mail conversation with my bloggy friend Karly. I admitted my really terrible attitidue about my weight and she understood. The idea was born! We all recently took a little break and now....we NEED to come back.

So welcome. You are among friends.

The assignement this week was to 1. introduce ourselves 2. tell why we are back and 3. rank our goals in order of importance.

I'm back because I fell off the wagon. Hard. And yes, it did hurt just a bit. I want to get healthier because:
1. I want to look better. Call me shallow. I hate pictures of myself.
2. I want to wear different sizes of clothes.
3. I want to have more energy and be able to do physical things without feeling like an 80 year old woman.
4. I want our family to eat healthier.

So that's why I'm here. Now, it's your turn!
