Katie's Story and her Get Fit Journey

A friend, colleague and now client approached me awhile ago about getting her health back and wanting to make exercise and a healthy lifestyle a priority again!  Here is her story and the fun opportunity we came up with to join  Katie in her Get Fit Journey
I have a personal story to share by Katie Marshall
 

My mother was adopted and passed away nine years ago from cervical cancer. My mother never wanted to know her biological family. Me, I’ve always wanted to know; Who am I? Where do I fit in this world? What diseases am I prone to?
 
So, last Christmas, I chose to participate in DNA Testing from 23andme.com  
 
The reason I’m sharing this is to let you know how valuable and simple this DNA Test was. It helped calm some of my health fears I had most of my life especially since my mother’s passing.
 
Since I became self-employed five years ago I stopped exercising and the pounds slowly crept up. It’s funny how we know we need to take care of ourselves yet we try to ignore the signs of our health.
 
My DNA Testing Health Report showed the #1 health concern was Type 2 Diabetes. Was I surprised? Not really. But now I can’t ignore it. I need to make some changes, especially if I plan to get pregnant in the next few months!!

Last week I had coffee with my friend and colleague, Robyn Murrell from Zhoosh Fitness by Design. We were chatting about how we can network with each other in order to support our complementary businesses. Health is so important, especially with your skin! I told her about my DNA Test Health Report and shared what my Doctor said about a possible High Risk Pregnancy.
 
Robyn and I agreed it’s time for me to make exercise a priority in my life again. I need to get physically healthy before I conceive – it may be a challenge getting pregnant at 38 and staying pregnant too! Getting healthier and dropping some weight will probably help ward off Gestational Diabetes not to mention being easier on the Baby and Me during delivery!
 
I asked Robyn when her next Personal Training program starts…
 
To my clients: My challenge to you is to make that step and join me in my Get Fit Journey with Robyn! See the details of her next Metabolic Body Conditioning Classes below. I start Tuesday August 20, 2013 @ 7am!
