Welcome back and thanks for reading!! It's been quite a while since my last post and I apologize for that! This month has gone by so quick!!!
Anyway, I have done several workouts since I last wrote and can honestly say I have done really well!! My last blog post which you can find here talks about how much I struggled getting back into it after my vacation to Jamaica. Since then I have made an effort to get to the gym most days of the week and to control my portion sizes when eating. I have also learned to accept and embrace the weight that I've gained since my trip and am slowly seeing the numbers on the scale decrease. Yeaaaa!!!!
Today I decided to switch things up and do a workout in my home gym with my adorable dog Molly- doesn't she look happy?!!!
Here is my intense BOSU ball workout!! Enjoy!!
Warm up: I chose to do 10 minutes on my stationary bike
