I generally try not to brag on blogger or especially facebook, but seeing as how I want to make this change permanent, I have to let you all know... I've lost 20lbs! I'm telling you all, because it will keep me motivated to not let the poundage creep back up.
I cannot believe that I used to be 20 lbs heavier! I am so excited to be at this weight, but I am not stopping. I have fallen in love with working out. It's the only thing close to coffee that can help me keep up with the kids & the house & all the other things I do. But, unlike coffee, there is no crash. Of course there is soreness, but that reminds me that I kick ass! *cough cough* Sorry about the language.
I really want to encourage everyone who reads this to take that next step toward fitness today! I never thought I would get here & less than 6 months later, here I am. I'm not a fan of the depriving yourself or working out so much you can't do anything else. I am proof that little steps get you where you want to go. If you need any encouragement, I would be happy to encourage you!
Thanks to ALL the friends & instructors who have taught me & encouraged me! Thank you Pinterest for your amazingly motivating Fitness section!
Encourage me! I'm in a wedding in July and I cannot be this fat in their pictures!! HELP!! I should also mention I have NO money to spend on getting a gym membership.
ReplyDeleteHey girl, It is stressful being in pictures when you don't feel at your best. There are a lot of workouts online, even on YouTube. I do go to the Y, so it's a little easier for me because they have childcare. You should look into DVDs. I find DVDs hard because the kids are always up in my corn while Im trying to swing around or jump, haha.
DeleteThat's awesome lovie! I am proud of you! Send me a sexay pic. lol
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! How do you find time to work out? I really want to get back into shape so bad, but I have ZERO time to myself, unless it's the middle of the night. HELP!!
ReplyDeleteMichelle, you look great! I go to the Y & they have 2 free hours of childcare a day, so I use that. While Corey was gone, the gym was my me-time! haha. I went to classes there & also ran on the treadmill. I'm starting to do Jillian Michael's 30-Day Shred next week. I'm pretty excited.
