A new dawn....

This is a blog that will follow us, husband and wife, on our journey to getting fit again. Fit like we were when we fell in love!
We were young (well, it was only 4 years ago...but i'd like to keep that excuse anyway, please) skinny, happy and in love!

Here we are a couple months after we met, in San Diego where we were planning our wedding, we made sure to make a quick stop at La Jolla Cove!
This is what we aim to look like again....



We hope to achieve this look using these aids (For anyone that knows us, i'm sure you can guess that due to Clydes already bootylicious rump, the Brazil Butt is for me and my apparently not so bootylicious behind!):




Now....well, 3 babies later (one set of twins) Jess's body has taken a beating, literally, and Clyde definately put on some sympathy weight. Our diet, exercise regime, the will to get up of the couch once we sit down etc had gone out the door with all that came along with becoming parents. We found ourselves battling with even getting the opportunity to make something to eat rather than snacking here there and everywhere. Any moment we get that's not consumed by babies we take to get things done, like my little online boutique, Clyde's online schooling or just wanting to CHILLAX.
However...the buck stops here!
We shall have our work outs ready and waiting for us. Each night, we promise to PRESS PLAY and get up off our behinds, no matter how tired we are and troop through our workouts.
We are changing our diet, yes, we are not cutting out every pleasure however. That is because, life is short and i'm not interested in obsessing over things. This is for our health and image, sure, but it's mostly just something that is good for us and something to bring us together and have fun doing. We both know, when we are at our target weights, we are SO much happier, more confident, and those 2 things are priceless to us!
So, with this said...let us begin.
My next post will be our before (uurrrrrggggghhhhh!) pictures and a little insight to US and what our goals are!
Any other couples out there in a similar rut....be it baby fat, honeymoon stage pudge, over-comfortable couple fatness syndrome, hahaha!! You get my drift....
Choose a routine, diet plan or whatever and jump on board. Bring a partner though! Trust me, it's more fun this way! Keep a blog/webcam diary and a few (skinny) years later you'll be able to have a cute/funny keepsake with all your funny memories locked in. I plan on catching Clyde working out with our camera... not that he looks funny when he's working out at all....!? hahahaha!

Well, I love you Bubba, i'm excited to start this blog/slim down sesh with you. I hope you get a grip on this blog thing and can leave some of your own....yes? I'm hoping you get to where you're super confident again and able to strut your handsome self around like you did when I first saw you... ;)

....Well, i'll be back with pics etc soon. Just waiting for Clyde to get back from the store, he had to go buy a DVD player since ours broke and it's an integral part of our workout plan! Lol.
