Calling all Fitness Enthusiasts: Move100 Ambassador Search

Calling all Fitness Enthusiasts or those who have recently adopted a more active lifestyle, and have felt the benefits. Whether you are a walker, a marathoner, a yogi, or a busy mom, you’re in the running to be the next Move100 Ambassador.

I am happy to announce I will be taking part in this initiative, and couldn’t be more excited! (More details to come) In the meantime, check out my personal “essay” on why I should be a Move100 Ambassador:

[May 2009]                                                                                      [July 2012]

My name is Rachel Chemerynski, the 20-something author behind healthy living blog Healthy Chicks and health coach at Zesty Living, and I would absolutely love to be the next Move100 Ambassador.

I didn’t always lead a healthy lifestyle. In fact, growing up I struggled with body image issues, dieting and finding the motivation to live well. My college days were consumed of counting calories, binging on desserts, hiding in my room ashamed of my weight or living at the gym to burn off that extra piece of pizza. I was stuck in a lifestyle filled with low self-esteem and guilt.

Flash-forward a few years, and I am now 30 pounds lighter and 1,000 times happier. In the past few years, I discovered a newfound love for yoga, which taught me how to listen to and appreciate my body. During this time, I also fell in love with Core Fusion Barre workouts and running, something I thought I could never do. While two years ago I couldn’t even run two miles, I am now training for my third half marathon in Newport, RI this fall. Not only did these accomplishments change and sculpt my body, but they changed me as a person.

I want to be a Move100 Ambassador so I can encourage others, just like myself, to make small, positive changes that lead to big results which I do every day in my health counseling business Zesty Living. I’m 100% dedicated to empowering others to find an exercise regimen that brings out the best in them and makes them shine. After all, health and happiness go hand in hand.

I have attached before and after photos per your request.

Thank you for your consideration,

Rachel
