Let the journey begin...

When I was pregnant with my oldest son in 2012, I told myself that after I give birth it is Project MILF time. This time around...now that my youngest is almost 4 months old, it is Project FitMom. Is there difference? To me there is.

What is the difference? Well, MILF according to Urban Dictionary is pretty much a Mother who is sexually desirable. For me, FitMom is everything from being healthy, beautiful inside and out, fit, strong, sexy, confident and happy.

Project FitMom is my journey. I am not doing it for anyone but myself, my children and my husband. I want to be able to see my boys become the great men they are meant to be and have children of their own. I want to celebrate 50 years of marriage with my husband. I want to look in the mirror and not feel disgusted with myself. I want to run with my babies and keep up with them. I want to feel strong and confident.

This is a lifestyle change for me and I am determined to reach my goals. There is another goal I know I will reach, but I will keep it to myself for now and when I am ready to share it, it will have its own post.

I am also at the point in my life where I really could care less about what people think and say about me. I used to care so much about what people thought about me. Now, I do not care. I have to not care because if I do care then I am not living my life. This is my life. My life with my boys and husband. Peoples opinions of me are none of my business. I have my own values and my own goals. People who make fun of them...well, they can just suck it. I have been laughed at by people for what I believe in and what I have done. Sometimes I think back and shake my head because I let it get to me. No more.

This is also NOT a competition with anyone. This is a competition with myself. I will push myself to the limit and I will go beyond what I am capable of doing. This is my challenge.

I am 29 years old, a Mother to two beautiful boys, wife to a wonderful husband, a college graduate, a student studying for her Masters, a woman who knows what she wants out of life and will do what ever it takes to achieve her personal goals and live life with a happy heart filled with love.

Closing a chapter in my book of life and starting a new one. Fresh pages to create amazing memories. Let the journey begin...
