Okay. The blog has been made. There is no turning back now. Here goes nothing

Hi! My name is Stephanie. I'm 20 years old and am a junior in college at BYU majoring in education. I have been married for almost one year to my favorite person in the world. His name is Brent. You can see how cute he is in the picture below. Presh, right? Sorry ladies, he's taken. 

Okay. I'll stop showing off now. And....I have a confession to make. This is my first. blog. ever. I never really caught on to the the whole blog thing. I don't really have any blogs that I follow religiously like some people do and I haven't really had any interest in starting one of my own....until now. And honestly, I have no idea what I am doing. But I needed something to help keep me motivated, so here I am. 

About a year ago, a few months before the wedding, I happened to come across an article all about shocking secrets of the first year of marriage. Believe it or not, the number one all time shocking secret of the first year of marriage is......drum roll, please......new wives tend to gain weight. (Gasp!) Or as the article so delicately put it, you'll gain a little love weight. (Love makes it sound oh so much better, right?)   So, probably not the news of the century. I've heard that same thing a million times. That type of thing happens to other people, not me. 

Okay. I have another confession to make. One year later, I, Stephanie Leger, have gained weight. There. I said it. Which I guess brings us to why I have decided to start my own blog. I want someway to help keep me motivated to meet my fitness goals. Granted, I know I am not fat, but to me, it's more important than that. I've gotten lazy and my body has changed. And I don't like it. So...I'm going to do something about  it! I am getting back in shape. I'm going to start trying a little harder and aiming a little higher. And I'm confident I'll get there. So thanks for being there to cheer me on. :)
