Hello KeeKee!

Welcome to Tae Bo and our group!

I am so happy to hear that you are doing well with Tae Bo. Boot camp is da bomb and really can change your body dramatically, I know because it has helped me tremendously! One thing that I would like to encourage you to do is to do tae bo for the enjoyment of it rather than to lose weight. Doing so can totally change the way you workout and as a result, the way you feel about you. I have learned over this last 1+ yr of doing tae bo that the more I love myself, the more I want to do right by myself. When I criticize my eating or my body, I feel worse and hence am a little more obsessive about my weight and appearance. But when I love myself, I am less concerned about my weight and more concerned about being healthy and doing tae bo well.

So the bottom line is that you are beautiful on the inside and the out. So if you are obsessively looking in the mirror make the reason out to be that you are doing so because you look so good. Whatever you focus on is what you will create. If you focus on beauty, health and a slender body, then you will create that. If you focus on your imperfections, how over weight you are and how ugly you think you are, then that is what you are going to create.

I appreciate your honesty and sharing. I wish you much success with tae bo. I never follow any guidelines, I just do what is right for me. And even if I don't tae bo 6 days a week, I will still finding something else to do. I need to work out as it is a stress release for me.

I will send up prayers for your hubby. My sister is in Iraq. I pray for you and your baby, also. Keep us posted on your success.

This is my first posting. I've been sort of sitting back seeing how this all works, not really wanting to bother anybody. But I like that I'm sort of reporting to someone, and being held accountable, because besides you all, nobody knows whether I work out or not.
