Getting Ready for the Big Day
I could not be more excited that my brother is getting married. I absolutely love my future sister in law and am so excited for both of them. When they told us that they were going on a cruise and getting married on the beach, I was hoping that it would work out for us to go with them. Luckily everything has worked out and we will be leaving at the end of November for 7 days.
In March we went and picked out bridesmaids dresses and her wedding dress. It hit me that day that I had to get back in shape. After 2 babies, this mommy had let her self go. I was so focused on providing for both of them that I stopped thinking about myself. Well that day when we got to ring the bell because Meg found her dress, I decided it was time to get serious.
I did really well for about a month. I started using the MyFitnessPal app, stopped drinking everything but water, and started kickboxing as well as the 30 day Shred. I think I took on too much, so I got overwhelmed and a little discouraged and slowly starting reverting back to my old habits. I lost about 15 pounds and have really seen that it has made me feel better. I follow several blogs and SkinnyMeg had a guest, Annie, to post about her fitness journey. It inspired me and I am jumping back on the "get fit" bandwagon.
Today I started the squat, plank and crunches challenge. It is 30 days and I can't wait to see the results. I will also be starting TurboFire on June 10th. It is an at home video that I should be able to do once I get the kids to bed. My goal is to wear a two piece bathing suit on the cruise and feel good about myself in it.
Hopefully I will be blogging more throughout this journey, so stop by and hold me accountable!
