Happy Hump Day ya'll! And this week I have been busting my hump after a relaxing, food induced weekend.
I used to be a person who would not allow myself to indulge, not even on holidays. I would still eat fruit and only the meat of a hotdog or hamburger. I just would not let go and let myself enjoy. I had this irrational fear that one day was going to put me on a downhill slide to fatness. Let me tell you how boring and stressful that was! One I was miserable and two I made others feel awkward around me. So, these days I allow myself the occasional cheats and holiday delights! I don't over do it, but I do allow myself to munch on snacks, have a glass or two of wine and eat one or 5 desserts.
But then it was Monday and back at it! This week I am focusing on those oh so lovely love handles! I mean no one actually wants a man to grab on those and we all hate a muffin-top. So its been cardio delight and legs! Lots of squats and in all variations have been popping into my workouts. Plie squats, reverse curtsy lunges, second position plie squats, box jumps.... you get the picture!
I also will reveal a before and after of my work. Yup, I took the plunge and took a shot of me in my bikini at the beginning of summer and will post a follow up next week! Brave doesn't even begin to describe this one.
Go you girl!!! You are super brave and strong and beautiful! I'm glad you've been able to find a balance as that is the most important thing so you can be healthy AND enjoy life :) love ya!!
