Overall Goal: Can I just keep it simple and say that I just don't want to shake anymore?
Fit Status:
I would like to let everyone know that my armpit flaps...those chunks that chubby girls get right there at the crease...are shrinking. LMFAO
I began working out by doing the FIRM videotapes. I loved doing them and I think I even saw results within a month...but, by the time another month had gone by, I had already given out... So, I have worked out, intermittently, until about this time yesterday, when I decided that ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
Why I Love It:
Even though I may not look like it, I love working out! It clears my mind...it frees me...relaxes me and helps me to sleep. Spearheading this business puts a lot of stress on me.. I need this...
How I Stay Motivated:
I stay motivated by looking at myself in the mirror. I don't hate my looks, but I could definitely be happier with them. I think I'll be most satisfied when I look in the mirror and don't have more creases than the khaki section at the GAP... Someone, pray for me!
BB Accomplishments:
It's not necessarily a "bodybuilding" accomplishment, however, I have changed my eating habits... My freezer is an aquatic graveyard--fish everywhere...and vegetables are all over the place. The only thing that I have in my house that I don't have to cook or chop up to eat is the shaved turkey breast in the fridge, my Special K cereal and my coveted jar of salmonella-free peanut butter!

My face has changed so much since this picture...my stomach was hanging like a pair of curtains! LMAO!
Okay...so I'm a little over a month in...and I canNOT believe it!! I'm so excited about my progress...I hit the gym as much as possible and I encourage myself to stay for 1 to 2 hours when I go...and I sweat...and sweat some more... I am actually ENJOYING it now!
Can I just keep it simple and say that I just don't want to shake anymore?
Goal (Long):
RedBull isn't the only thing that will give you wings--so will cheesecake--now I have those little shaky wings on my biceps...
I walked by the mirror the other day in the middle of getting dressed and I can say that I was frightened... If this is me at 29, what does the future of my health hold? A pretty face has nothing to do with the consequences of an improper lifestyle when it comes to my health.
So, I am going to just as I said: TRANSFORM MY BODY! I'm going to flatten, firm and tone--PERIOD.
I'm lucky enough to be a bigger girl that has a shape...which creates the illusion of being somewhat proportionate. This, however, isn't what I want to lean on anymore. I have started a company that keeps me on the go and in the public eye, so now, being in shape is my business and my BUSINESS. HERE I GO!
She is dedicated and admits where she must work harder. ...Wants to stay in shape, but doesn't want to lose femininity... This is a mirror of my goal... THANKS!
As I sit here, fresh off my "FIRM" dvd...I am left to wonder: could it be that my sweat is salty naturally, or is it heavy laden with the remnants of some long lost bag of Lays chips that I just couldn't resist paying 85 cents for in the break room at work? Whatever the flavor may...
Looking good!! Stay focused, you are doing great. I really admire the hard work you have put in so far. If you smile like that after a month, cant wait to see the 3 month photo-op....lol
Thank you for accepting my friend invite. Much success to you in accomplishing all your life and fitness goals. Take care and enjoy the rest of your evening.
Heeyyy! =) I'm so happy that I can be an inspiration to you! Just knowing that I can inspire others motivates me to push through the hard times that this not-so-easy weightloss journey brings! Thank you so much!... and I don't have to wish you luck.. you've got this one in the bag!
Hey, I saw you're page and just wanted to congratulate you on your decision to transform your body. It's a pretty empowering feeling when you decide to take control of something like your physical appearance; I mean, you do have to look at and live with yourself everyday! My advice is to enjoy the journey. there will be ups and downs, but if you stick with it I can guarantee that it will all be worth it in the end;-) Good luck!
