Transformation of the week!
So this time last year I was over weight and feeling like my body was never going to look good again! I was going to the gym, but really wasn’t investing much time and dedication in my weightloss, thinking in my head that "I cant do this, its too hard, even if I did put all the time in it, it just wont happen for me." After I finally got over all the negitive thoughts in my head and replaced the negative with positive I started seeing improvements. The first positive thought was, well if I do put all this hard work in, and dont look great, at least I will be heathier and have more energy. So I started going more and putting more hard work in. Well after seeing all the progress I was making I knew that I was overcoming my fears. And look now, I have lost all the weight that I gained from my twins (was 210lbs the day i gave birth, now 125lbs) , I wearing a smaller size then before I had my twin boys, and Im modeling again. Which I thought would never happen again!!! I have gotten so many sweet emails from people because of this tasformation and feel blessed to have the encouragement and people looking up to me as a role model and for inspiration. Everyone of those emails that I get are truly an inspire me! I swear right when I got the first one I was thinking, I better hit the gym more. lol. I dont want to let anyone down. But most of all I dont want to let myself down. I hope that in anyway my story can help you get up and do something about your goals, whether your goals are to lose weight, gain weight, gain muscle, anything. I know that its hard and I know that your mind is always telling you that you cant do this… You just have to take out all that negativity in your brain and replace it with the positive. And for those of you that have emailed me, thank you so much! I hope that I emailed everyone back, which I think I did. I want you all to know that you are a huge encouragement to me!

That’s a nice story! Way to go, you are looking great! You are proof that your body can recover from pregnancy and that you create your own circumstances!

"…After I finally got over all the negitive thoughts in my head and replaced the negative with positive I started seeing improvements." That really hits home for me. I’m starting to let go of negativity and feeling hopeless. I don’t know if this is true for you as well, but I feel like since I have started getting really serious and motivated that all the external negative influences and people in my life have become much more apparent to me. I am able to recognize the negative stuff and not let it affect me. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and feelings and being so open.
