Then during day 10's guilt I was texting with my workout buddy from Colorado. We both knew we needed to be working out. We both decided that we were going to make the commitment to the BBM community again. And then we both failed miserably. So on day 10 she tells me she's joining a Diet Bet to help her stay committed to making the changes she needed. We talked a lot about it and I decided to bring it up to Hubby. I needed his support in making this decision to spend money on a bet that would hopefully keep me committed to making changes. Thirty dollars isn't a lot of money but it is enough money to be missed when we are trying to build a house, care for property, build a chicken coop and fix vehicles from random goose attacks and highway breakdowns. He wasn't thrilled about the idea but he has always supported me in getting healthy. And he remembers the changes I saw when I did Bikini Body Mommy the first time.So he said "Just remember, I'm not going to be happy if you lose that money." Which at first I wasn't happy with him for saying but then I realized it gave me more motivation to stick to it. If he would have not cared about the $30 then I wouldn't have cared either.
So today I just finished up day 15. It was a fit test day so we compare our scores to how we did day 1. Now of course if I had actually completed more than 5 days of the program I probably would have seen bigger differences but the important thing is that I still saw a difference. I even saw a difference today after digging holes for the fence we're putting up. I dug 9 holes all by myself that are about 12 inch squares and 2 feet deep just using a shovel and a post hole digger. It was really hard work and I was feeling my sore muscles last night but surprisingly I was fine when I got up this morning and through my workout! Between Bikini Body Mommy and the work we are doing currently and will be doing on our tiny house and property I should be building some awesome muscles!
Of course today my workout got pushed back in the day. We had a homeschool group playdate so we were sweating in the Oklahoma heat and humidity this morning and then I got to do it again for my workout. I'm not sure that afternoon workouts will be something I could do on a regular basis. By the end of it I was sweating so bad that I could hardly see. And being sweaty makes my glasses slippery and that means I have to take them off during certain moves which means I really can't see. But I'm not going to skip workouts just because I couldn't get them in before the heat hits.
Can't wait to see the changes I make! Of course I still need refine our diet and get this gluten free trim healthy mama thing down. But we're working on it and each day I do a little better!
