As many of you know my daughter Abby has started her modeling career. With that comes a healthy diet to stay thin for the camera. According to her Manager they wanted her to lose 10 pounds. Honestly I wasn’t sure where those 10 pounds were going to come from because she was as thin as a rail to me. They told her to have no carbs for 30 days. She wasn’t sure she could do this and was a little nervous about it. So I promised to do it with her. Her Manager at Found Model was presenting her to The Ford Modeling Agency. We were faithful and she her 10 pounds. I lost 11 pounds in that month. I was very happy and continued for several months to where it became very easy to me. I wasn’t quite as faithful as she was after that first month. So I’m still sitting where I was and I’m glad I have not gained, but I recognize the foods that are good for me and the foods that are bad for me.
Abby’s doing well, she signed with The Ford Modeling Agency and she has modeled for The limited, La Senza, Crate and Barrel, Tyson Chicken, Diamond Nexus, Static Nails, Cocovan and many many more. I share some of her pictures on our Facebook page so be sure you watch for them. Theough her journey of trying to acquire more work and maintain her figure she has switched her diet from worrying about carbs to worrying about being healthy. This has been a lifestyle change for her. When she’s home she really tries to share recipes with me to help me live a more healthy lifestyle. We work on perfecting these recipes so they taste as good as possible and still are healthy for us. My Refrigerator has never looked so pretty inside, and I hardly recognize my pantry.
So now with me trying to eat more healthy she still not getting off my back. She’s pushing me to exercise. Ugh. She sounds like my other daughter Summer who is an exercise machine. Of course I made resolutions like everyone else but I was not too harsh on myself. I just decided to resolve to keep trying my best.
The girls bought me an Apple Watch for Christmas which is awesome. I can get phone calls whether the phones in my hand or not. But that wasn’t the point of the gift. There is an activity app that they sent to their phones so they can watch what I’m doing. They’re both telling me I’m not getting my heart rate up. Ugh, technology!! So with all that being explained I guess the exercise must begin.
My oldest daughter Summer is getting married in October. Of course I want to look my best. So friends I’m going to start today not tomorrow. I’m not going to wait until Monday or until the new gym opens. I am going to start today. Today for my girls. Today for me!!!
Do you my friends want to start today with me too? Let’s do this!!!
Tami Loves the idea of getting healthy!!! Who’s fridge and pantry is this? MINE!
