Pump

Life is hard for a girl who loves to eat and doesn't love to work out. 

I don't mind working out, I usually get into a groove, but actually trying to get skinnier isn't fun. 

Usually this time of year I'm training for a half marathon, and that isn't to get skinny, it's to get my ass across the finish line at the end of 13.1 miles.

With both my sister and my mom's weddings this year I'm trying to get said ass into shape.  I've started Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide, which is kick ass and muscles in my stomach hurt I didn't even know I had.

Part of the workout is a few days of cardio of some form.  This is where she loses me. I've been trying just some simple fast walking on the treadmill in my basement while catching up on Southern Charm, but since the weather is improving I feel the need to get outside and try new things.

I have an fear of exercise classes, mostly in part to those scary ass instructors who always ask who is new at the beginning then watch you like a kindergartner carrying a sharp knife for the rest of class.  Back up off me bro.

Reading about Hallie and Dana becoming a part of the SoulCycle cult makes me wish the closest one wasn't over an hour away from me. Hallie's blog helps with motivation and inspiration to get into gear and Dana's snapchats remind me to get my workout in.

Do I splurge on the waterproof Ipod and get back into swimming laps?

Do I do the hot yoga my sister pesters me to go to? Because I don't sweat enough in yoga normally.

How do I keep motivated on my BBG "days off"?  Thoughts? Ideas? Fat shaming?(Joke)
