READY TO START A NEW!

Life got in the way of my sexy figure! At least that’s my excuse. After nearly four years of wonderful marriage and one beautiful child, I’ve discovered that I’ve developed a private hatred for scales and mirrors alike. I’ve had enough of life getting in the way, and it’s time to get back into the best shape of my life! T-minus 60 pounds to go!
Let me start off by saying, I am blessed. Andrew is my loving husband, and we have a beautiful little one named Eden. I am able to stay at home with Eden while Andrew is able to work from home. We love to sit and watch movies or play video games while eating candy and pizza on our time off. Soda is something we drink daily. Taco Bell is a place we visit 2 or more times a week. My name is Christy Lowen, and I am ready to start a new.
As a mother, I set the path for my daughter. Whether it is a path to gluttony and laziness or one to a healthy and Godly lifestyle, it is my choice. As a wife, it’s my job to be and feel sexy for my husband!

How to Burn Calories!

"Being overweight is associated with 400,000 deaths a year and an increased risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and colon, breast, and endometrial cancers."- Cathy Newman

One of the main causes of a failed diet/workout plan is loss of motivation.  We know how important it is to eat right and exercise, but sometimes its hard to see the point when our end destination is so far away!  Fact is, it takes time to get healthy, and it is darn easy to quit when things get tough! 
Want to succeed?  Then get motivated!!!!   Read success stories, play music that pumps you up, place motivational quotes where you spend your time (car visor, bathroom mirror, office, etc.) and most of all PRAY!  His word does not say "I can do all things because I am going to work really really hard." But it DOES say "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength." -Phil 4:13  Pray for motivation, strength, and persistence. Pray that HE will carry you through it.  He wants to!
