Why A Blog . . . Shapely Alterations was officially born in December 2010, but with a slightly different agenda than what you see now. Originally, I needed a creative outlet and challenge so I figured why not chronicle my journey back into shape and the several discoveries that are sure to come along with it. But as the months progressed I realized that fitness wasn't the only information I wanted to share. I turned 35 this past February (2011) and feel as though I'm embarking on a new chapter of my life. This chapter includes growth in every sense of the word and this blog will be a reflection of that transformation.
