The beginning.. (About Me)

My name is Gina, and I am new to the blogging industry! I am also a new mother! My little girl is 11 weeks today and with an unexpected (but so excited to be a mom) pregnancy I was very unprepared and nervous! Before I was pregnant, I competed in figure and bikini competitions where I had to go to the gym twice a day (the first time for empty stomach cardio, and the second time for weight training). I also had to cook all of my food and eat six times a day (every 3 hours) along with all the other household duties. Now that I am a mother, a student, and trying to get my body back I am having a hard time finding time to balance all of my duties. I am more than willing to share any diet tips, weight training tips, and products I have found for working out and being a mother that have helped me accomplish all of my duties! I want to share my story with everyone, I am only 23 years old but feel like I can reach out to many with my story I have to tell about my life and what I have been through. I've always wanted to write a book, but I have always felt that my story or my life experiences are not book worthy. My entire life I have felt like the girl who almost made it, who almost got where she wanted to be, the girl who was too nice to people which ultimately turned me into doormats for days. I still wander if anyone will read my story, but the only way to find out is to start telling it. Until I had my daughter, my outlook on my life was completely different. I'm going to start telling my story day by day starting back in 2006 before I met my current fiance 2010 because I think it's important for everyone to see how time, wisdom, struggle, and experience changes people.
