We literally worked our butts off all summer to look like this and the day finally arrived... The first picture is just a sneak peek of our shoot with Melania Marta. The other pictures are from an iphone after the shoot. There will be lots more to come. We had so much fun training together all summer and cooking and eating clean food. We pushed each other to get our asses to the gym when we'd rather sleep in. We chose chicken breast when the processed sweets were tempting. We even enjoyed a fun "treat" meal together after the shoot. It was a journey we shared together, but it's not over. Fitness is a lifestyle. It doesn't turn off one day and on the next day. Some days SUCK and some are easy breezy. But nothing is more important than your health and feeling good about yourself. It's worth it to spend the money on a good trainer (Juliane) and healthy foods...better than paying hospital bills for poor health. This look doesn't come easily for either of us... We are both naturally heavy and carry weight in our midsections. But YOU too can change your genetics. Our bodies have learned to love eating nutritious foods and we crave the endorphin rush of an awesome weight lifting session. Believe it or not Juliane used to weigh 180 pounds at 5'5 and 1/2 inches in her early 20s. She also struggled with eating disorders as a teenager. She has finally found peace with herself and her body. Jessica isn't naturally lean either... plus she had a baby about 16 months ago! No one said it was easy, but you only live once and you might as well be healthy (and look good). When Juliane gets up the nerve, she may post some pictures of her heavier days... until then.... enjoy these.
