Bootcamp-Week 6

6 weeks ago I signed up to do an intense workout program called "bootcamp." It is normally 3 months long, but in my moment of insanity I signed up for a second session meaning I will be in it a total of 6 months!! Many people told me not to expect results right away. They warned me that you may even gain weight in the beginning as you build muscle mass. They were so right! Tha past 6 weeks have been so discouraging as I didn't lose ANYTHING.

Out of nowhere this week I LOST 5 POUNDS!!! I am so excited! I have 15 to go to get back to pre-pregnancy weight. I am trying to think of rewards to set for myself as I hit 120, 115, and 110 lbs. We have a fabulous place here where you can get amazing nail art done like this:




I also considered getting myself a new bottle of perfume or one of the 1 hour massages they offer on base for $30! What a deal! I already know I am for sure getting a photo session done just of me once I reach my ultimate goal. I had a photo session done of myself right before Steven got home from his last deployment because I had been working out HARD (2 hours plus a day) while he was gone. I sent him the pictures while he was still in Iraq. Then, less than a month later we were pregnant with Gwen. I want to have another set of photos taken when I reach my goal. I still look at those photos from back then as motivation.
