I am BARELY able to type this because I have started working out again...and I am HURTIN' FOR CERTAIN!!!!
Here's the deal: I haven't been able to carve out any time* to work out since Abbi started school late in August...SO, I've been doing NOTHING for two months.
*FULL DISCLOSURE: I've been BORED with my regular workouts, and frankly, didn't WANT to do it anymore!!
SO, I've been very unhappy with my body lately (SHOCKER, I KNOW!!). I'm just tired of being FLABBY LADY, so I decided to join up with the ONLY girl I know who works harder than me, Porche, from Lovely Confections Bakery in Denver. We have NEVER met, but we email or chat online almost daily, and we're BOTH carrying around extra flab that is hindering our ability to be ENERGETIC!! So, she suggested the Jillian Michaels'* 3o Day SHRED dvd....
*MORE FULL DISCLOSURE: I am a HUGE Biggest Loser fan (on NBC), and Jillian is one of the trainers for the show. Jillian scares me....she's ROUGH, and she's a TRUTH TELLER. There is no BULL SHIT with her. She will NOT let you stop YOURSELF from CHANGING your body into what YOU WANT. So, I love her and FEAR her for this...
For the next 30 days, Porche and I will be SHREDDING away the pounds "together" in two different states, hoping for some SERIOUS results by HER birthday on Dec. 1! I'm very excited to have a partner in this because I tend to just BLOW IT OFF and start eating cookie dough....You know me. BUT, with Porche's help, I may just make it 30 days (STRIKE THAT) 29 days (since I did the work out this morning)!
If the FIRST day is any indication, we're in for a PAINFUL transformation!
Don't worry. I'll keep you posted.
OH WAIT!!
I forgot to tell you about the NEW t-shirt I got!!!!
THIS is the t-shirt I received from Natalie at BAKE AND DESTROY! She is a KILLER baykah and blogger and has the CUTEST stuff for sale!!Let's consider this my BEFORE picture, I guess...
Laytah.
