For the past six months I've spent the cool early mornings getting stronger via Dustin Maher's Fit Fun Bootcamp program. I'm lighter, stronger and more fit -- but I expected those things to happen!
Some surprises:
- How light I feel emotionally! A new friend called me ditsy this winter during class, totally cracking me up. Most people would NOT associate me with ditsy, but I can't help being happy when I'm working out with friends. And sometimes when I'm a little tired, and have sleepy mommy brain, funny mixed-up words tumble out!
- Awesome new socks! One of my new bootcamp friends named Trish brought me knee-high socks with cool dots on them! I ♥ getting presents - what a fun & supportive community! Trish has lost 68 pounds and eight inches off her waist! And she does amazing one-armed pushups even in formal wear! Learn more about Trish & Dustin in this news clip.
- I'm doing better with sugar! I stopped buying soda. I drink it occasionally at others' homes, but avoid it most of the week. I'm weaning myself slowly off intense sugar, though I think I'll always ♥ buttercream frosting on birthday cakes!
- I'm enjoying new food. I love trying new things! I've recently made my own Lara-like fruit bars, discovered what Quinoa is thanks to Jessi Stensland & today I made this great crunchy yummy salad
