I'm going to be posting healthy recipes and meal ideas on here for anyone to wants them. I myself am passionate about fitness and nutrition because I love to feel strong and happy and a healthy lifestyle is key to feeling good. I was once overweight, even considered obese at one point, and then I realized I needed to make some changes. When I was a junior in high school, I reached 185 lbs at 5'2' and was VERY insecure, I knew I had to do something about my weight but I didn't know what. I was teased by the scale for many years, trying YoYo diets, restricting my calories and what I ate. THIS struggle is the very reason why I want to pursue a career in youth health and fitness, to help all those teenage girls find a healthy medium in life and be okay with their bodies. When I graduated I was somewhere around 160 lbs, but my drive to join the Army helped me get down to 145 lbs. Now, I am 135 lbs, not worrying about the scale but proud of my weight loss and currently working to become the best me ever. I am in the process of getting my personal training cert to understand the basics of fitness, and I start full time college this winter in order to finish my associates degree. As someone who's experienced the hardships of disordered eating, weight loss, relapse, and all of that other junk, I know how difficult it is to find help or to find it and not have to pay heaps (expensive personal trainers, nutritionists, etc).. So, I want to share my personal experiences on my blog (here & OnFireForFitness.tumblr.com) and even more than that; recipes, meal ideas, easy ways to live healthier, workouts, and more. It's not about the followers, or likes, its about helping at least one person change their life for the better. Hope you find my blog interesting and helpful, feel free to make suggestions and email me for health/fitness related questions at chloeannfitness@gmail.com
