8 weeks and counting

Well friends I did it again!

I signed up for another boot camp! Haha...bet you thought I was going to say something else.
I finished my first six week boot camp and immediately signed up for another one! I LOVE working out in the mornings. It has been the best way to start my day. I am getting a lot better with the exercises and my running. {which is huge for me} I strongly believe that we all have to better ourselves and do the things that will get us there. For years I have been wanting to get into shape and always had excuses, but not anymore. I am in control now! And it feels great. I promise to never miss out on a class because I am lazy {the class I go to is at 5:30am} or too sore from the day before. No excuses will stand in my way =)


 If anyone is intersted to come work out with me here is the website,
 its called My Perfect Body Now The trainer is amazing!

The last week

So yesterday was my last day of my 6 week journey of boot camp. So glad I was able to finish it! The class started with about 20 women and on the last class there was only one person there...and it was me! {There were supposed to be two more girls with me but I don't know why they didn't show up last night}
I got pushed way beyond my limits and have gotten so strong. I can honestly say that I have shocked myself with what my body is capable of doing. Never did I think I could run 2.25miles, do more that 10 push-up, all these crazy leg work etc.{keep in mind that before signing up I have not worked out in 5+ years!} But I did. I feel so accomplished and believe doing this boot camp has changed me inside out. I feel great! The feeling I have of finishing strong is unexplainable. I plan on doing more boot camps in the next couple of weeks and hope to have my summer bod ready by May.
Colby thank you so much for being such an amazing trainer and having a positive attitude towards pushing me. Because of you I have realized that I am strong and that I can push hard and am capable of doing tough work outs! I hope to work out with you again soon =)

Mind VS Body

I just finished my second week of boot camp! Only 4 more weeks to go. Colby, our trainer, says that most of our work outs are just mental. It's fighting mentally with your body. Last night I felt like I really pushed myself and was pretty impressed with how much my body can handle this week. I am not feeling as sore but I think that I am starting to see little results, or maybe I am just feeling more confident in myself.  Which ever the case I feel great and look forward to the next week.

The next six weeks

I've always have had his idea of what the perfect me would look like, and as I stare in the mirror I realize that I am far from it. Why do all us women stare at the cover of magazines and wish we looked just like that perfect girl?...Even if we know that in reality the photo has been photo shopped to look amazing. I have always struggled with my image and think I am never good enough. I have decided to get rid of this obsession and work with what I've got. Sure my tummy is not as flat as it once was before having two beautiful kids, my legs aren't firm and the list can go on and on...so from this day forth I am making an effort to eat healthier, work out and just accept who I am and what I look like.

I have joined a boot camp! It's not all just physical, I will also be working on my inner self. I have six weeks to love what I see on the outside as much as I love the me on the inside. I will not be using a scale because the purpose of me doing this has nothing to do with a number. I just want to feel good about myself. 

So for those readers out there(if I have any) I will be tracking my progress on my blog. I will share thoughts, feelings and progress as the next six weeks come along. 

This is my journey into a fit and healthier me =)
