Hey, This is Jamie Bowers. I also don't take very many pictures of myself and apparently I have lost my camera charger with pictures from the last 6 months so this is as current as I can get at the moment. A little about me: I have been married to my hubby Travis for almost seven years and we have three kids, Kamryn (3) and twins Dax and Alexis (11 months). I think the day after I got married was the day I stopped exercising...seriously. I love to travel, be out in the sun, sit on my porch w/Travis and shoot the breeze, cook, hang out with the kiddos, girls night with my friends, read, watch lame reality TV shows, and shop. So after 7 years of being lazy and three kiddos later I am ready to get back on the bandwagon and get my trash back in shape!! The reason I wanted to do this was mainly to prove that I can. To have self control and learn to say no again. I want to feel good about myself, I want to have energy, I want to be healthy and feel like I am in control of my life again! It's so easy to get caught up in the daily grind of being a mom and put yourself last.
So this is me and Trav right before we got married. I was going through old pics and found this one and as much as I want to look like this again I know its not totally realistic. let's face it moms, your body changes after the kids. Things "shift" and "expand" and its never the same again. Mainly I put this picture up because of the way I felt at this time. I was eating healthy, I was working out, I was eating treats in moderation and most of all I was HAPPY about the way I looked. I have never been super small and I don't care to be. The goal for me is not to lose a certain amount of pounds or even be a certain size. I just want to be happy with the way I look (and be able to fit in my clothes again...and be able to put a swimming suit on without having a melt down in the mirror). The biggest challenge for me will be the treats and working out. I eat treats every day. I feel like I don't have 10 minutes in the day so finding 45 minutes to work out will be tricky! As far as working out goes I love kickboxing, weight lifting and pilates. I am excited to do this. I am excited to push my self. I am excited to have discipline again. I want to feel in
CONTROL again and to feel
EMPOWERED. I can do this!! You can check out my blog at www.jamieandtravisbowers.blogspot.com
