The next step in my journey.

I need something else to focus on - get me away from thinking about wanting another bub at the moment, otherwise it will do my head in - literally.
Something I have wanted to do for over 6mths is the 12WBT program by Michelle Bridges. If you haven't heard of it, then check it out - www.12wbt.com. For various reasons or excuses I haven't done it.......I used the 'trying to have a bub' excuse, the 'not having money' (really haven't had the money) - but this will drive my determination to make it work for me and to make sure I stick to it and to begin with I thought "why? when I have lost over 13kgs by myself".............well why have I???

Here are the reasons and motivators.
  •  I have seen a few big inspirations who have succeeded with this program first hand
  • I will be fully supported with the program supplying my shopping lists and workout routine.
  • I am stagnate with the weight loss by myself
  • I have two awesome kids that deserve an active mum
  • I want to give those two kids a brother or sister so why not be healthy in the lead up
  • Due to bouts of gestational diabetes I have had while pregnant, my chances of having late onset diabetes are a lot higher - why not reduce some of the chances with the weight issue.
  • I want to be confident, I want to love what I see in the mirror.
  • I want to be the best possible role model I can be for my kids
  • I want to be fit!!
  • My husband - my biggest fan and supporter of this - he doesn't care for a skinny wife, but he does want a healthy, more active wife and more than anything a confident wife.
I will share my journey with you to keep me going - I DO NOT for one minute believe that this journey will be easy, but it will be rewarding. It will kick my arse and it will be brutal, but at the end of it, I WILL SUCCEED - I promise you that.... I am excited, daunted and yet highly determined I am going to finish this journey that really started 12mths ago when I started to lose kilos.

So fasten your seat belt for the roller-coaster ride that will be the 12WBT experience.

  1. Yay! We can do it together! I too need that kick up the butt to get healthy again, so I have signed up as well. This time last year I signed up and after a couple of weeks I gave up. Now we can give each other the push if we need it xxxxx

  2. We will hun - I have bought a workout dvd (just as well as it is raining up here) and "crunch time" cookbook to help get things started and I am going to be really on the ball with preseason tasks to make sure I stick to it.
