Here
I am, as I stand today in my raw form- not hiding a single bump or lump. Am I
ashamed of this body? Yes indeed I am, and over the last year I have actually
learnt to HATE my body and what I have allowed it to come through poor diet and
laziness.
I
am in no way proud of this body, and a part of me wishes I was as after all it
has house 2 babies and been through quite a bit- but that just doesn’t sit well
with me.
Ok,
I know posting this photo may disgust people and for different reasons. People
might start telling me I am not fat, or they are way bigger then me. But here
is why I consider myself fat and big.
Back
before children I was a size 6-8 and 45-50kg’s which, to be honest now looking
at it may have been a little too small. But all my life I have had a tiny
figure and a body that just came natural to me without any hard work needed.
Now after children my body has jumped to a size 12 and weighing in at 69kg’s****. I
know no matter what I will never get my pre-mummy body back, and the pregnancy
stretch marks I am proud of- after all I earnt these stripes! But I want to
loose some weight, tone up and more then anything begin to live a healthy,
nutritious lifestyle my body craves.
In
my weightloss journey, I am realistic and have set myself achievable goals.
Each day for the first month I have set aside 10minutes to focus on a certain
part of my body. Today it was legs and did about 50 odd squats, some with
weights (boy do I feel it today.)
Every
second day I want to be out walking and eventually work myself up to runs.
Once
a week I want to go down to the pools as a family and then I will go off and do
some laps and water yoga.
Within
a year I hope to drop 15kg’s and more then anything feel healthy.
This
is where healthy comes into it. My pantry has now been banned of junk snack
foods and instead replaced with healthy alternatives. The fridge has been
packed full of fresh produce and lean meat.
I
will do this, I will achieve my dream and goals of a healthy Mummy Body J
So
please join me as I explore the worlds of fitness and wellbeing and transform
my body from recent to decent!
