Me and My Family

Hiya,

Im 38 and a Mum to three active, sporty, imaginative youngsters (DD13, DS 9 and DS 7).
I live with my DH in a small country town in south-west Victoria Australia. We were both born in Scotland and before I had a family of my own I trained as a Nanny and travelled and worked in Britain.

I am a fully qualified, registered fitness professional and run my own business "FitNuf" , conducting a variety of fitness classes and a 'boot camp' as well as developing personal programs for people.

I turned my life around after deciding on the 18th Dec 2006 that 2007 was not to be another 'fat year'. I was 75kgs in 2006 at my heaviest point ( I am only 5' 1" so that is borderline obese). I now weigh 53kilo and am comfortable in a size 8 ( I was size 16). I did it all myself at home following exercise and diet programs which I developed .

I am now offering a start-up program TOTALLY free ; http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/fitnuf_rainbow/ come and try it out there is a weekly class, assignments and simple program to follow- get started and get healthy! There is something in the group for everyone!

You can see more about my fitness story at ; http://fitnuf.tripod.com.

I am also trained in Horticulture and Psychology and worked as a counsellor for several years.

I love my family and think Minti is a brilliant resource for parents. I hope some of the articles I have written here help others with similar experiences.

Cheers

Anji x

I cant believe its been five months since I wrote anything here. Thanks for all those lovely people who have sent notes and messages, its nice to know I have not been forgotten. I am not online as much these days (understatement, lol) as I have been working on building my fitness business. I am currently running 6 classes a week and have a few more about to start. I also do personal programs/ training for people and have started a 'boot camp' outdoor fitness at 6.30 am (yay!, haha)
I will try and get some updated pics taken and posted on here as I think I might look a bit different again... I can actually SEE my abs! imagine that!
Anyway- love to all, will try and be a bit more active, I do miss minti!
Luv Anji

New look, new career, new beginnings ;-)

Ha- thanks Jenlemen I did borrow part of that from your gorgeous little zine. :-)

Well I havent been on here at all for quite some time, but you are not forgotten. Thank you for your messages, emails and thoughts - much appreciated.

I have totally reinvented myself. I have lost 16 kilo and am now trained as a fitness instructor ( i graduate at the end of this month - it was three month intensive course with time off for Easter *smile*.) I am hoping to get a part time job at a gym while I also build my home based business as a fitness instructor/personal trainer. I am running several classes from home and also have a couple of clients already.

I have had no time for the internet except for study. If im not writing programs or designing exercise classes I am researching for study or reading or DOING classes or out running or other exercise.

Its been hectic but worth it. Feeling fantastic and very positive about this new direction.

(((((((((HUGS)))))))))
