"I’m so glad because I’m not forcing my self to do what I should do"

I begin with fitness journey in 2014, I was curious about what I will look like when having lean muscles and its started with me when I saw videos for a bikini competition moms, and they look beautiful, sexy, and younger.
I was at the end of my 30, and I was looking much older, and overweight which makes me feel sad every time I look to my self, I was an unconfident person and hating how I become before married and have children. 
So these videos on youtube gave me hope, a spark in my soul pushing me to look and learn more about health and fitness, so I tried different programs which I couldn’t stick with it, then I asked my self why I can’t walking through this journey without pushing my self hard, why my body won’t help me? 
My body was preventing me from eating healthy and exercising. I was looking forward to having this fantastic body so I can be confident and love my self. 
Then I start to study about the human body, how it works, the organs, hormones, brain, muscles, why the body is not burning fat instead of storing it. I learned a lot, and every time I discover something related to the human body, I feel like I want to inquire much more About it. I saw videos for Dr.Eric Berg, talking about the body type, and it’s about getting healthy to be fit not get fit to be healthy.
And after all these amounts of information I’ve got, I applied to my self what I have learned, and I’ve seen progress mount by month. But I still digging for health and nutrition and fitness, that’s why I joined the Longevity Bluprite quest because it has a deferent level for this subject. I’m so glad because I’m not forcing my self to do what I should do, but on the contrary, I enjoy and love what I do.
