5. How long have you been trying to lose weight? Describe the moment you decided you needed to do this.
3 years ago i decided to make a change. i went shopping with my mom and sister and realized that there was not one thing i could fit in. the lady at the store told me i should go to a store that offered clothes for “big girls.” i was embarrassed and horrified. when i stepped on the scale i realized i had gained almost 90 pound since high school. i joined weight watchers and lost almost 40 pounds. i have kept all of that weight off, which is great! but recently i have tried and failed multiple times to lose more. this time, i WILL do this.

4. What is your favorite type of workout, and why?
- runnning: can burn a lot of calories and definitely helps me to clear my mind. although it can be really difficult, after the first mile and a half i am able to settle in and it starts to feel better.
- circuits: can burn a lot of calories and keeps me entertained. they never get boring because i can change them every time i do them. :)
- basketball: i love it.
