My journey began over a year go. In fact, it was last January 1st that I began on the road to changing my life. I had an amazing husband and two beautiful little girls, but I was not happy. I ate out of loneliness, I used food in an attempt to feed myself emotionally and at the same time I was in denial that was my weight creeping up and I was not healthy. I wanted to be healthy for my family and as a mom setting a good example for my daughters. So my journey began....
June 2010
205lbs and 42wks pregnant
January 1, 2011
180 and starting my journey with ChaLEAN Extreme, my daughter also took this pic for me, I was too embarrassed to have my husband take it.
April 4, 2011
90 days of ChaLEAN Extreme done! 20lbs gone, 21" gone, 9% body fat gone! CLX/TurboFire next!
July 4, 2011
90 days later and done with my hybrid!
September 4, 2001
Done with Brazil Butt Lift & NROLFW, really getting into CLEAN EATING and onto Jamie Eason's Trainer!
During JE12WT sporting my new size 4 jeans... I started my journey wearing tight 12's! I used to cut the tags out of my clothing b/c I was in denial about my size. Not anymore!!
December 23, 2011
Jamie Eason's 12Wk Trainer complete
January 2, 2012... P90X up next! About 30 days in here...
P90X complete, headed to the Bahamas!!! 136lbs (I am 5'5")
But I'm not done yet!!
I'm currently doing a PUMP/Insanity hybrid & loving it. I'm still a work in progress as I strive to lose my last 8-10lbs to hit my goal weight and lower my body fat. That's been the hardest thing after having 2 babies, ditching fat!! Dare I say I am a mom of 2 and 33yrs old and possibly in the best shape of my life though. And this journey has been FUN!!!!!! If I hadn't started those first 90 days, which flew by.... If I didn't have the support of this MFP family.... If I didn't have my husband & kids cheering me on... then I wouldn't be where I am today. I wouldn't take back one second of this past 15 months. It has changed me as a wife, friend & mother. I have more to give b/c I have confidence in myself... and that's the BEST feeling in the world!
