Michelle Bridges 12WBT. I’ve signed up. How about you?
I have a confession to make. Lately I have been feeling tired, and really just heavy. I know I am a mum to three small kids and I work and I’m busy. But I also know I am a better person in general when I’m fit and healthy. So the chance to sign up for this programme couldn’t have come along at a better time for me. I’d love to be feeling (and looking) great at Christmas time this year.
I honestly didn’t know much about the Michelle Bridges 12WBT programme before now. A few people have said to me they couldn’t imagine doing lots of exercise or sticking to an eating plan. But right now I think that’s probably exactly what I need to do. I think I need someone to boss me round a bit and tell me to lift my game a bit.
So I’ve already signed up and gone into the forums. I haven’t actually done any exercise yet. That part doesn’t start for a bit longer. There are some pre-season tasks to do and the first one was introducing myself in the forum. The second one was watching a video from Michelle and getting me to work through the many, many excuses I am making to not look after myself properly.
I liked what Michelle said on her intro video that “routine equals control.” I have a pretty strict routine for my kids, so I think I’m being a bit of a hypocrite not having one for myself at the moment. I’ve noticed that when I exercise my kids always want to join in with me, or they need something done urgently so I’ll have to figure out ways to let them join me or find a time when they’re asleep! I’m sure there is a solution to that.
In the meantime, the idea of planning my meals and taking some control is exciting. I want the old me back. The one who was excited and enthusiastic and wasn’t really self conscious about my weight. So here goes several kilos and hopefully finding my waistline again. I’ll keep you posted.
Are you signing up?

Getting fit and healthy sounds like a great idea, but a big challenge. Sarah decides to go for it.

I signed up this morning, and I'm so excited! I'm already addicted to the forum, and have done the preseason tasks for the week. I agree - I really need someone to just tell me what to do until it becomes habit, and I love Michelle so won't want to disappoint her! Good luck!

I signed up too. Just a bit worried now about the eating plan hope it fits into my budget each week. Hopefully I was 1 of the first 500 to receive the book.

Yup! All signed up and working through my pre-season tasks. Got a feeling this time I've found a plan that is going to work - helps that our super dooper trainer extraordinaire Michelle really knows what she is talking about! Especially the emotional side of it all. Already had a few gut wrenching moments and our round hasn't even started lol smile

All signed up too!! I finally pried my bum off the fence it had been firmly planted on for the past few weeks and just did it and signed up! Im also loving the forums, they are a great way to really get involved and feel like you're a part of the team.
I'm with you "So here goes several kilos and hopefully finding my waistline again" smile

Yep! I'm signed up too! I can't wait for week one. The pre season tasks have been really motivating! I'm so disappointed though, that there doesn't seem to be anyone in my area who has...I would loved to have met up with some ladies.
It's exciting though..Good Luck all!
