I originally posted this on Facebook and I thought I would elaborate more and share it here too.

Day 1 and month 2 of Insanity Max 30! The struggle is real people! I almost didn’t make it through the workout but, I did it! (Monday is tough!) I can hear the fat screaming for mercy as it melts away from my body!

On a side note: I wanted to share something with you. As I was taking this picture today I was reminded of how much I dislike taking my own picture or a “selfie” and/or filming myself. It is a huge insecurity of mine and I hate taking my own picture and/or filming myself!

But, this is why I do it, not for me but, for you!

I want you to see my face and know working out is a struggle for me too some days. I want you to put a face with a name, not just the smiley “profile” face but, the face with no makeup that workouts from home with her children all around her. The face that struggles and sweats, the face that is sweating with you through this everyday fitness challenge. I want you to see the real ME!

Anyone who knows me knows that I do not go around snapping selfies of myself, I am snapping pictures of my kids usually. (Not that snapping selfies is wrong, it’s just not me.) But, I want you to see and realize I am a REAL person with a REAL life, with REAL sweat and REAL extra pounds. I am REAL! What you see is what you get!

So with all of that being said, if I can do this, so can you! I am a mom of three small kids, a wife, a crazy person some days that can’t find her phone then realizes she’s talking on it and a person that struggles with weight gain if I am not diligent to my daily fitness and nutrition plan!

Are you ready to take the challenge?

Hey, if I can take a “selfie”/video of myself, get out of my “box” and do something that is completely “not me”, so can you! Get out of your “box”!

If you are ready to lose those extra few pounds and start eating right, I would love for you to join me! I’m just a click away on the computer for support, what do you have to lose? Nothing but, a few extra pounds!

No Selfies Please

Most importantly I would like to thank you, my readers for helping me feel more confident in my own skin! God has really brought me “out of my box”, in more ways than one! From working out to even taking “selfies” He is working on me. I am always a work in progress, but I am so excited to watch what God is doing in my life and in yours. Thank you!

Show me your workout pic, no makeup and sweat pouring! Can you do it?
