LFG27’s BodyBlog

I faced another fork in the road and I chose a path that I believe with bring me to my purpose in this life. I have decided to go back to school. My degree in Human Services with a concentration in counseling is the way I’ve been looking for to give back to those in need. I grew up in a foster home and have saw personally how there are so many kids abandoned to the system that have no one to sympathize with them and no one to talk to. I want to be that person that they can relate to, that someone who has been there and can really say its going to be o.k.

How does this relate to my training? Well, I am a single mom and I have no choice but to work two jobs. I will still be working two jobs when classes start. I will try and get to the gym at least three days per week but right now I am going 6-7 days. I’m not worried about gaining weight because when I’m extremely busy I tend to lose weight. I just don’t want to lose my muscle. This step foward in my life may bring a step backward in the gym but I know that the iron in the gym will not leave me just because I’m looking to better other areas in my life….he will be waiting there like an old friend when I am able to go foward full force again.
