12WBT - wrap up.

9 December 2011

Those that pop by my blog  will know that I've been taking part in the 
To say its been life changing is an understatement......
This photo alone blows me away......this is MY transformation......this is 12 weeks of good nutrition and working my ass off in the gym.......and this is proof that it all been SO worthwhile.
Michelle Bridges.....you and your program ..ROCK!

So....where am I at?
The 12 weeks have ended.....but my journey hasn't....I feel so inspired to continue.....I know I can shed more weight..... I have fitness goals to achieve....and the best bit.....
Mish has given me all the skills and resources I need to do it.

So in this 12 weeks.....
I lost just under 10 kilos ...
and a massive 55cm from my measurements.
I can fit into the smallest pair of jeans in my wardrobe...
I'm lighter than I've been in the last 10 years
I can finally get the rings off my fingers...
I'm learning to run....and I've stopped saying I cant run.....and began believing I can.
I've got my love of the gym back..... I'm there 5-6 days a week...
I love healthy food....and I've found its actually possible to crave a chickpea salad!
I've found foods that I never knew existed....quinoa is my favourite breakfast....
and lentils feature quite often on my menu.
I've taken up Yoga.....it makes me feel strong and balanced.
I am driven by my HRM...
I love my exercise clothes...and the fact I've had to replace them twice in smaller sizes over the 12 weeks.

So.....from here...
I will join again next round....
I want to continue working on my running...
I want to up my weights....and build more strength....
and Id love to lose another 5 - 7 kilos.
