Hi, do you remember when I told you back in June that I was taking some time off of my weekly weigh-ins? Well, that happened and now I am back to share the final leg of my weight-loss journey. Since January 3rd I have lost a total of twenty-four pounds and enough inches that I’m embarrassed to even document them again. I maintained my current weight over the Summer but with the help of The Dailey Method I plan on reaching my year-end goal by Brayden’s first birthday next month. This means I have roughly nine pounds to lose to get to my pre-pregnancy weight with Payton. So doable and honestly it’s so close! Of course, there are additional goals but this last goal is for 2012.
Back in June my six-week membership with The Dailey Method had expired and I had been yearning to get back into the studio. That was until last week when I began taking classes again and it felt amazing, who would’ve thought that a 45-minute express class would leave me feeling that sore! Over the next month I have been challenged to a 30-day challenge along with three other San Diego based mommy bloggers. Our challenge is to take a minimum of four classes per week – again, doable! It has left me re-energized about my health, my goals and my body.
If you’re unfamiliar with The Dailey Method it is a one-hour full-body workout that combines ballet barre work, core conditioning, stretching, and orthopedic exercises. The workout effectively strengthens, tones, and lengthens muscles in the entire body while simultaneously increasing one’s mind-body awareness. You leave the studio feeling refreshed, challenged and stronger. It’s amazing how addictive it is even if my legs chatter like crazy and I can’t hold the positions longer than three seconds the results are still amazing and noticeable. The Dailey Method studios can be found all over: California, Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Nevada and Utah. There are even studios in British Columbia and Paris!

For my 30-day challenge I will be sharing my weekly weigh-in’s once again. This time with…dun, dun, dun…PICTURES! eek! I want to crawl in a hole already but it’s to hold myself accountable. I can find a million things wrong with this week’s picture but be kind lovely readers. I am a mom of two, I’ve got saggy skin (well, saggy everything), I live in my yoga pants, I still look three months preggo and there are days where I don’t do my hair. I’ve got goals and a deadline fast approaching. Come along with me on my final month of my weight loss journey.
current weight: 146 | goal: 137
Disclaimer: I received a one-month membership with childcare for review purposes. Regardless, I only recommend products/services that I would use and believe my readers would enjoy.
