Moto for the day


I can't go to the gym this afternoon which is really disappointing for me but that said, as long as I commit myself to not getting home and crashing on the couch and actually getting on the exercise bike for 1 hr or so... I think missing the gym will be okay.....

This is the start of something big.....

Welcome. My name is Tara. I have decided to start this blog to take ownership for myself and the journey I will be taking over the next 12 weeks while I on doing the Michelle Bridges 12 Week Body Transformation (12WBT) and other things happening in my life. This is the first time I have ever considered writing a blog. There is something about taking ownership and putting it out there for the world to see. 
I have to say, I’m pretty excited to start. Pre-season started on Monday 15th Aug which goes for 4 weeks to get us all prepared for the journey we have all decided to take together.  I’m still not 100% sure what to expect but have heard great things from previous 12WBTers and not to mention the before and after shots which speak for themself- SO LET THE FUN BEGIN!  
12th of September is official 12WBT starting date!

Okay, so here is a bit of back ground…. I’m 26 years old, I married my best friend last year on the 10th Oct 2010, and we have been together since September 2004.  We currently don’t have any children but are excited to try to start after we hit our 1 year anniversary … I think this will keep people off our back for a little while –its unbelievable how many times we have been asked ‘So when are you guys going to have a baby?’ its like you get married and your meant to have kids straight away.
We do however have a family (a fur family) consisting of 2 cats, Buddha and Jaffa. I’m sure I will talk about them through out this blog. Buddha is our old girl, she doesn’t like anyone new and rarely plays nice with strangers (which is always fun when we get pet sitter in when we go away on holidays – Oh and if your in the Canberra region and looking for a pet sitter check out Canberra Critter Care- Lawanda is amazing!).

And then there’s Jaffa, he is my/our baby boy… I was there the day he was born and seen him everyday until we could take him home with us. I think he thinks he is a person as he loves to have showers with us… does anyone else’s pets LOVE water so much they sit under the shower while you’re trying to shower yourself??



Here are my stats-
Weight- 70kgs
Height- 158cms
Goal Weight- 63kgs
Goal Height – haha OKAY we can all wish can’t we? A couple of my nick names are mini coop, or lil t so you get why adding an extra foot wouldn’t go astray…  that said my husband is 6”3 so he makes up for what i don’t have… just dont want to think about having kids if their going to take after their father.. eeeek!
