About Me

Hello and welcome to my health and fitness blog!

I'm an author of fiction novels who is also focused on getting back to a healthy life. I used to blog about all this fitness stuff over on my author blog, and many people wanted to hear more about my journey. Not wanting to potentially annoy my readers who weren't interested in my fitness, I decided to create this new blog. 

I live in Indiana with my husband and daughter. As I mentioned, I'm an author of fiction novels (which you will hear about from time to time on this blog) who used to be in corporate marketing who used to be an engineer. I try to integrate all of these personalities, which makes for a very confused mind at times.

Growing up I was very active in sports - softball, basketball, track, soccer. I dislocated my knee in high school and that caused my fitness level to drop significantly. To boot, I started working in a fast food restaurant. Not the best combination to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Flash forward many years. I'm now in the 'over 40' category and my hormones are not what they used to be. It's been difficult for me to get back to a healthy life, but I'm determined to make it happen. I've joined my local Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping (FXB) gym, and I know I'll get to where I want to be with the support of my new amazing FXB family!

There is one thing I should make clear - I am NOT a health or fitness expert. I don't claim to have all the answers. I'm just here to document my journey and share my thoughts. Feel free to use me as your inspiration, but not your guru.

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you decide to stay and join me in my journey.

xoxo ~ Carrie
