What am I thinking??

I am so excited. A couple days ago, we were told about a really cool activity we could partake in. A guy came into the department (I think he might be a fellow firefighter--but I'm not sure??). He made a proposition to the firefighters & their wives. We get to partake in a six-week course that will get us in tip top shape. For free. It normally costs major $$$. I guess you tell them really what you want to get out of it & they help you achieve your goals. I started trying to lose some weight about a year ago. And I totally have, but just not nearly as much as I have wanted too!! Darn it. I want to work abs, butt, thighs, & arms. I think that it's kind of a P90X type thing, but different. You go to their gym like 5 days a week & do their workout. You can even take your kids. There is a room with glass type walls & you can see them from where you are working out. I am so so so pumped. There is only one draw back. And it's a mother. Big time. You have to do before & after pics. In a bikini. I am so freaked!! When I found this out. I almost wanted to back out. But then I decided that it's time to free the beast. Let it all hang out. Oh no. I guess they might be doing an infomercial. And we also have to blog about our experience on their blog & do testimonial. I am very very nervous about that. I just have to keep telling myself that the end result will be worth it. Totally. Sooooo, wish me luck. I am so going to need it!!

You can do it! It's only six weeks - if you don't love it, you can stop...but chances are you'll get addicted to working out and love your "new" body! Good luck!

That sounds awesome! Bikini pics aren't that bad! I try to do them a couple of times a month just to keep me motivated. I must admit, I've never shown them to anyone, but I would if I ever got the body I wanted!
