Am I really blogging!?

Hey everyone! This is my first post on what I hope to be a helpful, inspiring and informative blog. I'm totally new to this, but I'm hoping that I can start inspiring from the off!

Most of you know me from my twitter page www.twitter.com/GymForWomen and Facebook page www.facebook.com/GymForWomenPage, and I'd like to just start off by saying thank you for following me. I'm overwhelmed by all the support you have given and all the kind words you have said. When I first started the GymForWomen twitter page, I had no clue it would help so many people and be as popular as it is. Again, I have only you to thank!

Now, a bit about me. My name is Hadee (pronounced Had-E). As you can probably tell, I have a HUGE passion for health and fitness. I also have a passion for helping and inspiring others. Why? Because it makes me feel great! There's no better feeling than having someone tell you that you have been a positive influence in their life. It also motivates me, and helps me push through those last few reps, or those last few sprints, because I believe I owe it to you all to practice what I preach.

A common question I get is... Why have you chosen the name GymForWomen? This is a totally valid question. The reason I chose to set up a GymForWomen page, is because I believe that there isn't enough GOOD advice available for women. There are so many 'fad' diets out there, so many fat loss pills claiming to work magic, and unfortunately so many vulnerable women actually fall for this nonsense. The page was set up to show women they can achieve ANYTHING they set their minds too. To show them there's no need to "diet", no need to restrict themselves to eating just boiled broccoli and chicken all day and certainly no need to go on these so called "wonder pills". I say it, and I will always stick by it... The most efficient and most effective way to the body of your dreams, is through making healthier changes to your lifestyle, hard work, patience and belief!

If you're male and reading this thinking do I help men? My answer is... Of course! Male or female, I'm here to help! Feel free to follow me on twitter, and ask me questions, I'll always get back to you. I may set up a @GymForMen account, depending on interest and feedback.

Now to finish this off, I'll leave you with a saying, one that I love and live by...

"If you're not trying to make someone else's life better every day, then what are you doing!?"

Thank you for reading! Feel free to let me know what you would like to see me write about and let me know what you think!
