Keepin It Real

I’m listening to Swing Life Away by Rise Against. I decided to insert a blog post in my fit journey. The journey it’s self has nothing to do with fitness to me. It’s about beating out your enemy your own mind . I worked hard to get this far and I’m building value within myself. The crowd says Amy I don’t see a difference, Amy your fat, Amy your legs are chubby, Amy your a project. It’s funny when your building yourself up there is a crowd tearing you down. But guess what I look at my progress pics and I’m proud of how far I’ve come and I don’t give one damn about the haters the gossipers, it’s almost funny when people are so mean it’s sad.

I’m here to say if I can be the girl who turned the lights out to not look into the mirror a girl who hated herself who found the courage to over come my Demons and know I’m ok not because the crowd says I do or don’t but because I say so . Not to mention God says so !


I am a healthier braver person. You can do it to - picture before and after left to right

Cheating and Science

I wasn’t going to do measurements or weight until Friday but as I undressed to take a shower my waist looked so much smaller. So this is my fit blog so let me digress a year ago I wanted to lose weight fast I was tired of hating myself I wanted to feel better and be a better girl friend for my then boyfriend. I hated being insecure. So I did a liquid diet and cut my carbs. My weight dropped quickly It was hard as hell but I was determined ! Within a few months I probably dropped 20 pounds I was feeling better about myself . I knew I needed to switch up my diet or I would gain it back I’ve been in the industry long enough to know my body and how to ruin it. I slowly added a meal to my diet and I mean one piece of chicken or fish . As I started at the gym I added carbs . I still was losing weight I began flexible dieting . I began to count calories . My weight was coming off not as fast but I was doing it the right way . I was ok with that . This past month my body plateau after a year ...

The Heart Of The Matter

My heart you see something is wrong with it and after several stays in the hospital, many near death experiences, doctors telling me I need surgery all they can tell me is my heart beats to fast sometimes and it pumps blood wrong. I carry pills every where I go Incase it beats to fast. I cut my sugar, my carbs, but it’s not enough. Running has been the one thing that has kept my heart rate low. I self conditioned my heart and taught it to beat at certain rate as I run. But if I miss running for just a mere few days my heart is back up again. Sometimes I wonder if my days are numbered if I will live to see my daughter grow. I pray I do. But God has kept me alive through great tragedies so far. I trust him with my life. Watching and training my heart in this fitness blog I can tell you to believe me when I say running is a life saver. Start walking. I trained my heart by running 2 minutes walking 2 minutes now I run no problem a half hour at a steady heart rate of 150. My heart doctor sa...

For Fit 42

What will this year bring. I will spend one day in the mountains for my birthday I deserve that. To get away one day , it’s not much but it’s enough. Isolated , and thinking about nothing but my blessings. This year since quarantine I’ve gotten to focus on my health . Fix my back , get surgery on my wisdom teeth , fix a cancerous mole, all serious health issues during a health crisis might as well address while I have time. I’ve also done emotional health, got rid of people in my life who did not have my best interest at heart only their own. This is huge for me. I feel lighter stronger and better . It’s like cleaning out an old closet . Now to lose quarantine weight gain  signed up for 5 week program with Tristan and I’m really finding joy with God. I trust God for my health , with my daughter , my son . In the midst of great storms all we can do is trust in God. And find joy in the present . I prayed every day for joy I used to be so deeply sad in disappointments of life...
