I am an almost 44yr old mom of 4. I am a Jazzercise instructor teaching 4-5 classes a week. I have always been pretty active. Although I am no longer training or teaching, I am a 3rd degree black belt and had been a Sr. Certified instructor. Over the course of having 4 children, 3 delivered via c-section, and trying to take care of my family, I gained about 100 lbs. 8 years ago, I lost it by changing my eating habits and started participating in Jazzercise classes. Loved it so much, I became a certified instructor. I have kept the majority of weight off for the past 8 years! I had surgery last December and over the course of the past year, part of that time recovering and getting back full speed, 20 lbs have found their way back. I realized that my healthy eating habits were becoming less and less healthy, so although I am working out daily, I am not seeing the results I want. Time to get it in check!
