Hey everyone! My name is Karen, I’m 36 and for the last 4 years I’ve been searching for my long lost beach body! Since having my first son, this has been an endless struggle. Previous to this i was pretty fit and had a, yes i am going to say it, i had a great flat tummy! Right up to the birth of my first child i was at the gym. I’d always enjoyed spinning, circuits, all sorts really. This kept me fit, and trim. I do remember though kissing my flat tummy goodbye as the pregnancy went on! It wasn’t about to return any time soon as i was soon pregnant with son number 2. My poor body just didn’t stand a chance!
Since them I’ve been searching. Endless spinning, pump, and gym sessions. You name it, i tried it. Then after our family holiday last year, i felt all the hard work was a waste of time. All my efforts had been in vein. I really didn’t like myself in a bikini at all. From then i went to classes less and less and became bigger and less motivated. I was in a rut. This had massive implications for my whole life. My job as a full time mum became unbearable. I couldn’t cope with them. This isn’t about just feeling out of shape, it becomes a confidence problem and it effects every part of your life.
So i had a choice. Sit back, accept your body for what you’ve let it become and let the depression set in, or fight for your body. My exceptionally supported husband bought me a Jango health and fitness voucher to try his boot camps. I already knew Jango and i knew his P.T sessions had worked for my good friend, Keely. So i knew it was up to me. At first, i was excited about the thought of losing some weight and shaping up, who wouldn’t be?! The reality is that it takes a lot of will power! The diet/nutrition information he gave me was worrying me. I love to eat with my children and i really don’t have the time to prepare lots of different meals. How was i going to “diet” around the children? Well that’s the first thing, it’s not a diet, it’s a healthier way of eating. A lifestyle change. The most important thing is planning ahead, something i do anyway (I am a control freak. I am an Aries!) I snacked, just as my kids do, but always something healthy, not mini cheddars! My plate got smaller, and so did the carbs. It’s really not rocket science! I love to cook, so now i love to find healthier versions of the foods we love. I’ve found some great recipes too. I still bake with the kids, and yes i still lick the bowl out, just don’t tell Jango! The following are some examples of a typical days diet with some recipe ideas……………(to add in)
Nutrition is half the battle. You can’t do one without the other. So off to boot camp i went. I’ve been doing boot camp for about 3 months now and i love it! It’s a great workout. It’s hard, it’s fast and it works! Imagine also putting every walk of life in one room. All shapes and sizes, all ages, but all with one goal. We all encourage, support and congratulate each other on achievements. I’m so proud to be part of such a lovely fun bunch of people! Boot camp is a tough workout, but would it work if it was easy?!
3 months, and over a stone gone, i am a changed woman. It feels amazing to be here. The search for my long lost beach bod is over, i know where it is now. Jango’s fitness boot camp had it all along! Just as being unhappy before with my figure impacted on my life, being happy has too, in a very positive way. Of course the kids still drive me mad and i still shout at them from time to time, but i shout at them in my size 10 skinnys looking good! All joking aside, i am so much more positive about life and i do cope much better with stress. Now when i get ready to go out, i look for clothes that flatter, not hide me. It’s a good place to be!
