When ZenLabs asked me to be one I Jumped for Joy! It is my dream helping people and watching the Forums. I love all of you!I started in the fitness field in my early 30's after my youngest was born in Louisiana. I started walking with him as he cried a lot and walking would keep him quiet, Go Me! LOL.My Husband was in the Air Force there. When he retired Air Force we moved to Colorado where he found a computer job. That job took us overseas to Amsterdam Holland for the next almost 5 years. Oh my gosh, did we love it there and we so embraced the culture as did our boys who were 5 and 1 back then. Looking around I was the 'fat' American lady, haha. Ok a size 10, but on me that is fat as I am only 5'2" and every pound shows on me..So I met this English Lady who asked me to to the Gym with her, ok, I was bored so I went. WOW OH WOW, what a journey that was. I got in the best shape of my life, ever. But I was way too skinny, but Europeans loved that, seriously, hardly see a chubby Dutch person. We rode our bikes everywhere and walked. At the time I did not have a car. I ended up running every weekend in 5k's, 10k's, half marathons. It was a blast. I could drink a bottle of wine a day and not gain at all. I got into teaching and went to the States to get certified. I am AFAA, ISSA, NESTA, NAFC Certified in Fitness, Nutrition and Coaching. I worked out so hard. I loved teaching in Europe about 10x a week. Man, I had energy. HENCE, the name above, EnergyXtra. When I got a car in Holland, i had no idea at the time,but a guy from class noticed it, my license plate said nrgxtr, He is like, hey Kelly, that is so you, Energy Extra. SO it stuck. I have a personal FB page that I help my friends achieve their goals by that name too. Thats me, too much energy, I am pretty active. I run circles around some 20 year olds, lol..I was a size 12 little girl, sheesh, which nowadays is that a size 0000??? Only problem with that was I still myself to that standard and I am back at a size 10 now. Is that because this is where my body wants me to be? I wish I never was that skinny, but I am looking ahead.Ok, flash forward to now. We lived in Utah, which I hated with my life, so I went to Beauty School. Exercising in Europe is a huge social scene, in Utah, women had so many kids that they left as soon as class was over so I got lonely and went to school instead. I loved Beauty School. Then we moved to Nevada, where we live now and hubby worked in California. my boys loved our country life. Small town, 200 kids in the whole school, raised farm animals. I did teach a class at the school for a few years and I now go to a class and I do not teach anymore, only sub.SO of course, after all those years of teaching, i just quit. I still walked, but now I am, JUST LIKE YOU, I am human. I am as determined as you all are to lose those 20lbs., i really need to lose........so when they asked me to Moderate, I was like, heck yeah, that will help me too....My husband of 30 years and I eat really healthy, we just love our cocktails on the weekend way tooo much.. So we are now stopping that and eating way way better. I am already down a few pounds and I am sooooo excited for the New Year.Lets Do this everyone, I am as real of a person as you are, and I love that everyone helps each other on here too.. Cheering each other on. As I get older, I now want to be in the best shape I can be in and feel great... Now you know who I am ....... sdbeachgirl and Timb113 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRoseWithin~Shannon Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 So very awesome when family notices progress - especially weight melting off. I feel and notice the weight coming off, yet I can be a harsh critic of what I see, so when they notice and comment ... it makes me wiggle happily inside! CONGRATS KELLY!!!

KellyAnn Posted January 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Thanks Shannon, I am pretty proud of myself. Before moving to Nevada we lived in Utah where I was used to the altitude and mountains. Uphills, Downhill.... We also lived in Amsterdam and man was that ever flat. When I visit some place at sea level, i can run and run and run! TheRoseWithin~Shannon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KellyAnn Posted February 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 SO, I am hitting the road. We traded in our old RV for a smaller one that i can drive. I am SOOOOO excited. My hubby travels a lot and I just got a job with a well known Venue in Sturgis and I can work on the road. I am BEYOND Excited... My hubby can now travel and meet up with me on the way. I am wanting to do 5ks along the way. from NV to Florida and then back across the midwest to home.. I cannot wait to do this! Maybe I will come run with any of you! Wish me luck! Tomorrow is my Birthday and I am not getting any younger, ready to go see America by RV! WootWoot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
