This is Where it Will all Begin!

Hey! I'm Kristen Carothers, a 32 year old wife and mother of 3. Thank you for checking out my blog. This blog will be dedicated to my personal journey to getting fit. Here are some quick facts about my body.

*Sporty (I played soccer from the age of 3 through college)
*Short (I am only 5'3)
*Looks better with clothes (I appear smaller with clothes than I do in a bathing suit)
*Abs were my best asset (until baby number 2)
*Tight bottom (until I broke my leg in college)

Like most women, my body changed when I became less active, hit 30 and had babies. I know there are super women out there who look amazing no matter age, exercise habits or number of kids. A lot of my friends look that way! However, that is not how my body works and thus my journey to fit!!

On this blog I am going to be real. You will know my weight, my struggles and hopefully my VICTORIES!! I will post pictures. These will be honest before and afters without touchups or change.

SOOO...why? I am also starting another journey with It Works Global. You know...that crazy wrap thing!!! However, it is so much more than wraps.

I would love for you to follow me as I begin to use these products and hope that you will be inspired. Inspired to...get off the couch, run the 5k 10k half or full this year, get to the gym, eat healthier, anything!! I just hope to inspire you to make a positive change in your life!

Here it is!!!! My before picture :0 I had not exercised in 6+ months, had gone out to dinner for almost three weeks straight and was in the middle of moving from TN to TX.

Weight:146lbs
What a great first mile! See you on mile 2!
