I use to keep myself physically fit

I actually started out by joining an aerobic's class at the "Y". The classes were very inexpensive. Then I started teaching at the "Y". I did that for about 3 maybe 4 years. Got burned out on that and started lifting weights. I used to be so strong ... I also began walking which eventually turned into power walking. I not only wanted to build muscle I also wanted to be aerobically fit. I felt good about me at that time. Then circumstances began to really fight against me. I got tired of fighting. Yeah ... I allowed myself to be robbed. I know it is my fault, but at some point a person gets tired of fighting. I never down loaded any pictures on my new computer of what I used to look like ... it depresses me to look at them. I'm in big hopes that by joining this community I will find a better version of the me I used to be. I'm tired of being sad and very unhappy with myself.
