So I know I have spoken often of the bikini body I am trying to get. I thought I would write an entry and post a couple of photos. I know, I’m addicted to visual progress!! It’s what works for me. When I look back at old photos, my God. To be honest, I never thought of myself as that big. But when I see the visual evidence it freaks me the hell out.
So here goes, this is the body now; it needs to be tightened and toned within an inch of it’s life so it looks good in four months when I head to southeast Asia and wear a bikini everyday.

The body in Aug 09, needs toning & tightening!
But I have to say I am effing proud of myself, when we view picture number two, taken in August 2008, it makes me CRINGE!:

In Aug 08; most unflattering photo ever! But it gives you the real picture...
So here we go… four months! Watch this space for an updated photo!
p.s. I really have to do it now, or you’re all going to know me as the girl with the belly. Not cool.





Good for you! I wish you lots of luck (although we know it’s not really luck but hard work)!
I would be too self conscious to do a post like this so seriously, kudos!
Maybe I should one day. I guess it keeps a person accountable and must feel damn good when you see the difference later down the track!

Good on you honey – I came to the same conclusion yesterday. It’s time to get serious about this shit. SB’s mum has an elliptical trainer so I can’t really say “oh, the weather is so crap, I can’t exercise”. We went grocery shopping last night and I bought snacks that set me up for success rather than failure. I probably won’t be bikini ready by this summer (I still have a long way to go) but at least I’ll be a significant chunk of the way there, and fitter as well!
You can do it babe! I think it’s just the sheer determintation that needs to kick in. Anyone can
Best of luck! x
Hahah yeah that’s why I post pics. It makes me work harder at it knowing I need to update you all with a BETTER photo! haha
Works for me

My God, I totally know what you mean there. I see old pics of myself and cringe. There are a few where I look as if I could have been pregnant, just makes me go :O
Anyways, wohooo! Good on you! This is awesome
You look so different! You can really see the change in your face, especially. You’re getting there – don’t give up!!
