week 12 week 1On January 7th I made a commitment to myself to finish a Body for Life challenge. For some of you who don't know what this entails, it is an eating and exercising plan that lasts 12 intense weeks. Eating 6 meals a day and exercising 6 days a week didn't come easy at times. I found that I would want to make excuses to eat something not on the plan or just not want to work out that day. I did have a few setbacks. 9 weeks into this, I had minor surgery and had two moles removed. One then needed extra "attention" and that laid me off working out for two days. I was DYING inside. I FINALLY got the bug and then I was being forced to hold off. I am so proud of myself for finishing my challenge on March 31st. 84 days of discipline. I have NEVER started something and finished!! I have this trait that has followed me through everything I ever start! But........I broke the chain. I am so excited about my new and improved attitude. I love my self more then ever before. I have so much more self confidence and love. I know that I can do anything. You are probably laughing at me right about now!! Well, I am telling you.......this really changed me. I do love my body and I am excited for this summer!! Watch out ladies!!!! just kidding! But, seriously, this really did change my self image. I AM beautiful. I AM a good person and I know that I am a good wife and mom! I am excited to keep this going!!

Are you kidding me, when have you ever not been absolutely stunningly beautiful! I am serious!! YOU are awesome...Yeah to doing hard things. I am tempted to check out this 12 week challenge but oh my gosh where did you find the time/will power. Good for you!
You're a nerd. You've always been beautiful! I love you so much!!! Can't wait to envy your body at the pool when I am fat and pregnant.
You were born beautiful! We have always thought you were a "Chic" for some reason you needed to prove it to yourself, that's OK.
We are proud of your accomplishment.
wowee... thats awesome! you look and sound great. I am so inspired, I just think about how great you look when I have hard days or don't want to get up at 5 am to work out, thanks. By the way why were you envying those girls bodies at the pool when you are WAY hotter than anyone else there.
Are you kidding me!?! You look freakin awesome!!! You already looked awesome, I had no idea you could look more awesome! Way to go, you should for sure be proud of yourself!
Let me know if Brandon is ever unavailable and you need a back up "Oil Man" for your next picture session. I know a guy with some skills.
