"Buff Bride Blog"


Follow this bride to be in her journey from "FIT to FIERCE"! 9 months to the big day. Each month she will chronicle her experience as we add definition and sculpt a body to compliment her gorgeous white dress.


Month One:
Month one of "project look amazing at my wedding" is complete and all I can say is I AM SO SORE! This month was probably one of the toughest months of training I have had since I swam in college. I have lunged, jumped and lifted myself crazy; but in then end I am already starting to see results. Kim really focused on my chest and back this month and it is actually beginning to look better. Each of our workouts has been extreemly challenging but different in order to keep my body guessing. Along with the weight lifiting I have begun training for a marathon in December, my last race as a single gal! The running is very challenging but is providing yet another weight loss tool for me, as well as a liberating experience. This month, I have begun to pay more attention to my nutrition; although, I will admit, it still needs a little work. I am a fitness trainer and yoga instructor myself , so I value nutrition and exercise but sometimes need someone to push me past my limits (in this case all my limits!). In the course of this past month,I have lost 3 pounds and am feeling stronger each session. Of course, that does not mean I don't end up rolling around in a puddle on my own sweat, while Kim stands beside me yelling for me to finish 50 pushups. Oh what are bridesmaids, best friends, and trainers for! I know I have a long way to go but I am well on my way, one month down 9 to go!
