As we start our new year and we focus on what we would like to get accomplished, I’m sure that most of us have “getting fit” on our list. I know that I’ve had that on my list of “to do’s” for awhile now. The only difference is that now instead of focusing on just a number, I’m focusing on actually becoming healthier. I’ve noticed over the last few months that if I don’t take care of myself, it really takes a toll on how I feel. Maybe it is a sign of my getting older, but I had a period where I was so tired that if I would have slept as much as I wanted to, I would have only been awake for maybe 5 hours a day. I was feeling so crappy all day, everyday, that there were times when I would be in tears from it. I found out that stress, coupled with poor eating and not enough rest, really will catch up to you. I started making small changes, like eating better, more balanced meals, taking a multi-vitamin, and resting when I needed to, I could start to see a change for the better, almost immediately. This is what made me decide that I needed to start taking care of myself, so that I could be there for my son, and be happy, fit, and healthy.

My Thoughts
If you like to read before and after stories for inspiration, this books for you. I absolutely loved reading about other moms, just like me, that met their goals. It is so inspiring to read about everyday moms making it happen. Dustin takes you through the simple steps of his program, which makes total since to me. He talks about eating healthy and “eating for fuel”, and he even talks about giving yourself two to three cheat meals per week! He also talks about exercise and different ways to fit into your schedule.
I found myself enjoying page after page of this book, and finding inspiration around every turn. I am finding it increasingly important to get fit, and pay attention to what you put in your body. This is a great addition to your library, and a great source of inspiration!
