Day 22 of Challenge!

You know, as I have been focusing on getting fit these past 22 days, I couldn't help but ask myself what my real motivation was. I am not the girl I was a few years ago.

 I am a married woman now.

 I am a mother now.

Why does a married woman get/stay fit? For her husband? For health? For herself only? Why does a mother do it? For health? To keep up with those little legs?

Why am I doing it? I guess it would be for a few reasons... Yes, for health. My body is God's temple. It is also because I want to look nice for my husband and set a good example for my little one. But I think the biggest reason is I want to be ready if/when I get pregnant again. I can sit comfortably with an extra 7 pounds on my body but if I were to be expecting again, it will be that much harder to get the weight off afterwards.

So I will work really hard now! And here is what I did...

All kinds of crunches...
I was ready for more ab work today so I did XHit Victoria's Secret Abs. I have no idea why it is called that. Does the instructor have an inside scoop? Will I really look like a model after this? Well, the answer is NO! Because I did it and I still look like me. :) But I liked the intensity of the workout! Even as I type this I feel how tight my abs are!

Then I worked my chest.

She has little dumbbells, too!
So I did another XHit video for the chest and back. It was pretty straightforward and fast paced. I do like how energetic the instructor is.

Well, that is all, Folks. I just want to thank you all for keeping up with me for the past 22 days! It has been interesting for sure, but I am so glad I have had you along for the ride! :)

Bring on day 23!
