Hello everyone! I am making this thread because I am going to be starting a fitness program called Focus T-25. Yes, I found a free download because I'm broke. Anyways, fitness is my passion. I think nutrition and exercise are super cool. I started school as a nutrition major looking into getting into dietetics, but I realize that I don't take people not listening to my advice well. I would love to help anybody who wants to embark on a fitness journey with me or would like some motivation to get up and get active. I know that since I started exercising with 30 day challenges, I feel stronger and I don't go into my dark depressed phase as often. I have stopped taking my acid reflux medication for my gastroesophagal reflux disease and my irritable bowel syndrome has practically disappeared. The only medicines I take now are a daily multivitamin, Vitamin C and Iron for my anemia. When allergy season hits in my area, I will start taking an allergy medication to combat that awful outside stuff. I won't post here daily about my T-25 journey, but I do have a fitness blog that I will update much more than here. If nobody wants to change their lives, that's fine too. All I want to do is help and be motivational because it helps me to not slip into my depression. I start the program on Monday and one of my friends will do it with me and we will keep each other accountable.

If you want some help, you can either message me privately or post under this thread. I just ask that if you ask for my advice that you please take it and not throw it away looking for an easier route. It signals to me that you are not ready to change your lifestyle to a healthy active one. Thanks!

Fitness does make you feel better when you get into a consistent groove, if for nothing else you are maintaining your health and don't have to struggle to breathe when you run or do any kind of hard work.
