No More Excuses

Yes... exactly that... No More Excuses!

I have set forth a goal for myself for the next two months... more gym time for myself and my family.
No more excuses on why we - or better yet I - can't get to the gym.

I was asked, along with some other women in a Madison, Wisconsin group, to be included in a swimsuit calendar cover shoot... for a chance to grace the cover of the No Excuse Mom 2016 calendar.

I feel so honored to be among the women that will be suiting up on April 26th for a photo shoot in our swimsuits... but I am also so nervous about it.
I have a whole month to get into the best shape that I can for this shoot... and this is the best kick-in-the-a$$ for myself to get into the best shape of my life.

Even before I got the invite, I was working on a goal board for myself - to hang in my bedroom - for the next two and a half months.
I want to be in the best shape of my life... with my upcoming 7th wedding anniversary in May... with our 9th year of being together coming up in June... my 38th birthday in November. And so many other events upcoming in my life that I want to look fantastic for.

My goal chart

So this is the chart that I will be waking up to for the next two and half months... the goal chart that I will see at any time that I open my eyes at any point during my day, this is what I will see in my room. To remind me that I have set goals for myself... and my life.

I want to be comfortable in my own skin... to be able to rock any outfit that I want and have my husband see me in a different light.

The little circles are all the pounds that I have to lose... yes... there are a lot... yes, I plan on losing each and everyone.
Seeing the visual of the weight that I want to lose will be a bigger push for me.

I know that I can do this... I have the support system already in place.
And I am ready to do this. I am ready to knock those pounds off my body for good... they have been given a pink slip and they have 90 days to vacate! 

I have 19 days until my daughters 5th birthday... I am really hoping to be able to lose at least 10 pounds, if possible.
I know that it's a lot to ask... but I know that if I really put my mind to it, I can do it!

Wish me luck... I plan on updating my blog more often now because of my goals.
I want to be able to show how excited that I am in doing this.
