In getting myself active and out there, I have found my way to a place called Thunder Kickboxing. It felt like family from the first time I stepped foot into the gym. That is how I knew this was the right place for me. I like that, with kickboxing, I can pace myself. As I get the hang of the technique, I begin to push myself more. The stronger I get, the more I can push myself, there is no limit to how far it can take me. The environment is a positive, fun, loving, light hearted one. My kickboxing coaches have become my life coaches and dear friends. Coach Eddie is currently working on becoming a nutritionist, and I am one of the lucky ones reaping the benefits. He’s learning a lot and he’s going to help me retrain myself on how to eat and shop for a healthier lifestyle. Apparently, I am going to have to start cooking. Which, for those of you who know me probably know that, I am a little resistant to cooking for one outside of a microwave. I am all about quick, easy and inexpensive. I know that is going to have to change, but I have no idea what to change it to, that is when the universe decided it was time to bring Thunder Kickboxing in to aid in my growth. Which is nothing short of miraculous, because I am pretty clueless when it comes to this stuff.
