Just a few years ago, I was so overweight I could not fit into rides at amusement parks. I had a bad back, sore feet, constant fatigue and no dreams. I since lost 80 pounds, became a certified personal trainer, Spinning® instructor and health writer.

How did I do it? By taking simple, consistent steps to improve myself. You can do it, too. Stay strong. ~Helen
