Also titled: holy shit I am in a bikini on the internet.
(you have been warned)
I am SO excited to work with Jennifer McCay and the other bootcamp participants over the next 6 weeks as we learn how to live a more healthy life as busy moms and lose some weight in the process.
Normally, I am not a internet-video watcher, but this? THIS is amazing! Jennifer has prepared videos of the week’s lessons for participants to watch each week. And to boot, there are documents that I can print out & use all the time for reference and to keep me in check.
The big goal of this week is goal setting (or benchmarks) and focused on eating – especially what to eat & the importance of adding one healthy meal (breakfast) to each day. This.Is.So.Hard.For.Me since I drink coffee for breakfast usually. But you know what? I feel so much better, more awake and more energized when I eat oatmeal (with my coffee, am not totally crazy). It’s not like I didn’t know breakfast was a big deal, but I guess I didn’t realize how big of a deal it was.
I am going to weigh in every week, but really it’s the size of my clothes/how they fit that matter to me.
So. here it is. Thunderthighs & muffintop in all their glory. (please ignore the messy bedroom)

Hold me accountable because I am going to need it!
If you are a part of the leangreenYOU bootcamp, I’d LOVE to hear how it’s going for you! the more accountability I can have – the better! I’d love to hear from you regardless, though!
You look amazing already!!!!
ReplyDeleteBut I know its also about making healthier choices and feeling stronger. You are gonna do great!
I've been body obsessed for years. I find that finding the proper food balance is vastly more important than anything else. Really, eat sensibly and OFTEN. Several small meals a day. And? If it's "REAL" food like fruits, veggies, etc, you can eat as much as you want and never worry about it. It is the processed crap you have to stay away from.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy your bootcamp. I love these types of challenges. But seeing as how I am weighty with an extra 30 lbs of human (YES, all THIRTY LBS ARE HER), I will have to join you later.
PS-You do already look great. Your husband is likely chasing you around the house in circles after you take this picture.
