A Mini Conquering of the World.
My own personal Jillian Michael’s aka CayeDee Rhoades (my dear friend) is helping kick my butt back to shape. I am so grateful for her. I personally see the advantage to having accountability. For some reason getting myself back into being healthy has been very hard this time. It’s like I had lost all self control.
I am relearning to be {disciplined} and honestly, I am loving it. I already feel so much better!
As cliche as this may sound, we began working out hardcore on New Years Day. Yes, that was just a few days ago, but I am so determined to keep this up. Why? Because I am already feeling GREAT.
I desired to run by the time Chase was 6 months old and I didn’t think it was possible, but I am proud to say I was able to jog!
We also worked on strength mixed with cardio with my christmas gift from CayeDee “30 Day Shred” by Jillian Michaels. I was even able to do ab workouts, and I did feel twinges with my incision but nothing painful!
I finished the first day and literally teared up. I felt like I had conquered the world. I had been telling myself “I can’t, I can’t, I can’t.” and I did!
Anyways, just wanted to update. Pray for me to continue to have discipline, self control and a healthy view of myself.
Goal Accomplished and My New Do.
DP Free!
I am officially 3 pounds away from my goal of losing 10 pounds by Christmas!! Remember my last post, one month ago?! Yeah, since then I’ve lost 7 pounds! Okay, so not a lot or even double digits but something.
I am {encouraged}.
I’ve been walking when I can and I have dropped Dr. Pepper completely! Yes, It’s true and I think I am even more proud of THAT than even the weight loss! When I did decide to have a glass on a date night with Ted is just wasn’t as satisfying. I don’t need it anymore!
I’d like to thank my own personal Jillian Michaels (biggest loser) aka CayeDee Rhoades for really, really challenging me to move forward and not settle for where I am at.
When I am home with Chase I will sometimes watch morning shows, like Regis and Kelley, the Today Show or Rachael Ray and it seems like lately they’ve everywhere I turn it’s about walking, running and being fit! I also watch the Biggest Loser and am inspired. I want to be running by the time Chase is 6/7 months!
WOOHOO. So, so encouraged! I can do this!
FOREVER 21 here I (almost) come!
