This was me and Bob Harper in August 2011. This is when I ate ice cream while I watched Bob help people lose miraculous amounts of weight. I LOVE Bob. I've actually gone so far as to start filling out the application to be on the Biggest Loser. But then I panic, imagine being away from my kids that long and scrap the idea.
But when I heard that the latest Mamavation challenge was going to include Bob's workout, I was psyched. Then I looked at the first workout. I think I might have skipped the whole thing if it weren't for the fact that I had friends who were also signed up and following along on Facebook to see how everyone was doing. I don't think there was a workout that first week of the two week challenge that I didn't have to modify in some way. As I got to week two, life started to get to me. I wanted to make excuses and let my emotions take control. But thanks to some great friends, I pushed through and stuck to it. I didn't do the best with my diet the last two days or I probably would have had even better results. But in two weeks, working out 5 days a week for about 20-30 minutes each of those days and sticking (mostly) to my Weight Watchers plan, I lost 9 pounds and 6 1/2 inches.
Disclosure: I did get a complimentary trial of BobHarper.com as part of the challenge. But all opinions are my own and results were not impacted by this savings!
