42 day summer challenge.

so, several years ago my best friend whitney had a baby. gosh, six years ago actually. wow. time flies. anyway, we joined the gym after her little boy was born.

six weeks to the day, she started working out. well, we started working out. at 5 in the morning. yes, 5 am!!!

i don't know how much weight i lost...only because i don't really measure my success in weight. i measure it more in how my clothes fit. and how i feel about myself. do you know what i mean?

we worked out from 5 until 630 every single weekday for...oh, five months straight.

it was unreal. i was in the best shape of my life.

i would wake at 450 am, and be dressed and ready at 5. be at gym at 510.

i hated waking up...but i would put on rob thomas...and sing at the top of my lungs the entire way to the gym. and by the time i got there, i'd be excited.

and whitney is my other soulmate...so it was so nice to be able to be with her. looking back, i have NO CLUE how she did this with a six week old baby. wow.

so fast forward six years. to today.

my friend tanna is a beast in the gym. as long as i have known her she has been this way. when she sets a goal for herself as far as dieting/working out goes...she meets it.

she has proposed something...and i've joined her. as have 10 other people.

please click here if you're interested.

if you are wanting accountability...and wanting to change the way you eat. and wanting to lose weight...then you should check it out.

and...honestly...pratt is eating real people food now. and more than ever before, i want him to see his mom make healthy choices. and i don't always do that.

i truly believe this will help me to be a better example to my little man.

i hope you join us!

About Me

My photo
i'm a girl who likes to write. not a girl that's necessarily good at writing. it's cathartic, i think. and boy do i need that from time to time. i married a wonderful man named clint in may of 2007. he is everything i am not. he is calm. he makes plans. he is organized. his truck is always clean. his clothes are hung by types of shirt/color/size/etc. i'm full of nervous energy. i'm spur of the moment. i can't ever find what i'm looking for. we live in my car...pretty much. i'm lucky if my clothes are within ten feet of my closet. God gave us a precious angel of a baby in september of 2008. his name is pratt allen. he is 2.5 years old.we have another little one on the way. his name is max wesley. and he is due may 19th. somehow i'll be the mother of two boys. craaaaa.zy. i spend my days cleaning house. picking worms and caterpillars out of the flower beds. cooking meals. shopping at target. washing clothes. playing on the floor. reading books. doing puzzles. traveling to sonic. and the library. and blogging. i hope you enjoy our blog. feel free to leave a comment. hopefully it's a nice one. i tend to wear my heart on my sleeve.
