My mom sent me this article today.  Read it, it’s cool!

Yet another reason to lift weights and build muscle.  Nooooo…not so you can paraglide, silly, so you body is better able to withstand trauma in the event of an accident.

Her life-saving-abs are not the only thing that strikes me.  She is 47 and paragliding.  Go girl!! That takes some serious courage or lack of sense.  However you look at it, she is apparently in shape.  I want to be that fit and half that brave when I’m 47.

Have a great weekend.

Hugs and High Fives,
jenn

The post Fluffy Friday: Six pack abs may save your life. appeared first on Girl Heroes.

A curious thing is happening. Although I’m not losing very quickly, if at all the last few weeks, and my measurements haven’t changed, some sweet little sextuplets are about to be born. I think I’ll call them The Abbeys. In other words, in my opinion (and that is the ONLY opinion that counts!) my abs are looking more defined.   I’m really excited about it.  

Here they are and I like them.  

Progress.  This IS serious progress.  Considering I used to be a body-hater and often still have body dysmorphic struggles. In the past I spent hours decided on how I could save enough money to get a tummy tuck or liposuction.  Who know it would only cost some sweat, discipline, and a good amount of chicken and broccoli.

It’s been a long time since I’ve said something nice about my body.  Like 10 years.  And it feels nice not arrogant.  It makes me feel like a slightly more mentally healthy person so I’m going to say it again.  I’m happy with The Abbeys! The Abbeys are my friends! I hope you make friends with your body today too!

xoxo
