Inspiration from Current Sellwood Baby Boot Campers

Share your stories....

Erika Plummer has joined our Saturday BBC classes for the last two months. Erika has very specific goals. One of her goals was to lose weight before her 40th Birthday. Last Monday she celebrated the BIG DAY and she also has lost over 7 pounds last month by working hard and eating well. One of her strategies is to keep a food journal to account for her daily calorie intake. She has reduced the amount of sugar in her day, has been making healthier choices when eating out and overall has upped her cardio and workouts to higher intensity. Well done Erika!!!

Katie Miller. Without announcing it to all Katie has decided to go cold turkey on sugar. She says she occasionally allows herself a small treat made of date sugar but has been off now for at least one month. I am still working on finding out how she did it but she references a book titled "Sugar Blues" (a book written in the 70's) which she has read and quite possibly could be a benefit to some of you as well. I know she wrote on facebook last week that she was into her skinny jeans. For all of us who have that pair of jeans we dream to get into...maybe Katie has something here. Keep up the Good Work.

Senna Pinney. If you have had a class with Senna you know that she is one of the hardest workers in Baby Boot Camp classes. And...oh yeah..she is now 32 weeks pregnant. She made a quick little announcement in class last Saturday that for this pregnancy she might possibly be 15 to 20 pounds lighter than her first. That is huge. When I took over BBC Sellwood I asked what everyone's goals were for themselves and how BBC could help. Senna wanted to have a healthier pregnancy, gain less, stay in shape and I believe she has surpassed her own expectations. Congrats.

All three of you are an inspiration and I want to have more Bootcampers share their own personal success stories. It is good to acknowledge out loud what we should be very proud of. What you do not share, we do not necessarily know.
