Molly’s BodyBlog

Ok, so this is the first time I’ve written in here but I like the idea of it and want to give it a try.

 First of all, I love this website. I just found it and I really believe it’s going to help give me some of the motivation that I need to get and stay on track.

I tired of having the same dream of achieving a strong healthy body and never really accomplishing it. What I mean by that is one word: MAINTAINANCE. I have lost weight before, I have ran a marathon, ok, that’s great and I’m proud of those accomplishments but now after having twins 5 months ago and getting back into the same unhealthy habits for the past couple years, I’m right back to where I started… wait, not quite… I’m 10lbs heavier!

So, where do I go from here? I finally doing some weight training again. I’m finally running again. But it’s all at the beginning stages. I mean, I can run 2-3 miles with not much trouble… on the treadmill. I’m doing the Biggest Loser Circuit Training routines 2-3 times a week. It’s a good start but I want to take my body to a whole new level that it’s never been before.

I look at women who have transformed their bodies into bodies that compete. Would I ever be able to do that? Is that totally unrealistic for me? I thought completing a marathon was an unattainable goal and somehow I did it. Maybe this dream is possible for me as well.

I’m not getting any younger. At 33, I’m not OLD. YET. But I want to be in my 30’s and looking fabulous not frumpy. I want people to say, "I can’t believe she has 3 kids", "It’s so great that she still takes care of herself.", "Molly is an inspiration".

I want to be healthy for my family. I want to be a strong role model for my children, especially my daughter. I don’t want her to feel like I did as a child, preteen, teenager. I felt bad about myself, no self confidence, afraid to try new things. I missed out on a lot of things. I want my daughter to be strong and confident. Never hesitating to give it a shot. Whatever she wants to do. Believing in herself. She needs to see me do this. Not just telling her to do this but for me to actually be setting goals and working hard to achieve them.

There’s so many reasons why it’s now the time for me to take a body transformation seriously.

I want to be able to say "I’m busting mine so I can kick yours"
