Mande and I have been very bad. Between being sick and being stressed and being overheated and being, well, 'not in the mood', we have neglected Jillian for a week now. And neglected Pilates/Yoga. And neglected healthy eating!
We suck. There is nothing more to say on the subject. I think I just need some encouragement so attach an inspiring comment on this post for me. Will you please?!

In the meantime, I'm going to show you my current goal.
This picture above is where I was at a few weeks into my return to the United States after bumming around India for two weeks and living in Cambodia/Thailand for about 10 months. I am still (obviously) sporting quite a bit extra chunk, but I felt pretty good!

| Nov. 2010: Bed hair and lazy clothes. But my breasts are AWESOME! |
But months of cold Oregon winter and delicious American comfort food left me looking like this...

| June 2011: My mother and I at Antelope Canyon (Page, AZ). |
This summer I've been hanging out in New Mexico doing archaeology in the desert which makes me look more like this...

| July 2011: A temporary New Mexican Archaeologist. |
So, my current goal is to get back to that first picture and never look like the middle picture again. I really just added the picture above because I look all bad-ass. In the same respect, here is a picture of me in a dress just to even out the filth...

| July 2011: New Mexico apartment. Girly day! |

woohoo first comment! i think its great that you're setting goals and arent afraid to ask for inspiring notes! we all need them at one time or another. i also have been slacking on my summer fitness goals (it's too hot, sunny, i'm too tired, etc), and have gained back more weight than i would have liked since africa. i recommend some superchick, such as http://youtu.be/JAhtLeP4rUk it's kinda poppy but definitely feel good music :)

That is an awesome song! I like it!!
Jo, you are an amazing woman! No matter what happens, just know you are beautiful and I love you just the way you are!! You and Mande will get back on track with fitness; I just know it. I also know how much you've had going on, so don't be too hard on yourselves. You go, girlfriend! :) <3
Remember, even though it seems hard, that exercising makes you feel awesome, and it gets easier the more you do it. Hmmm.. maybe someone should tell that to me too...
Would you like me to tell you?... Ms. Amber, remember that etc. etc. etc. Chin up! The three of you are all so beautiful!
