'' I have what it takes.''

I am still an amateur at this fitness and healthy food stuff. But if I can be sure of one thing it is this: I decided to do it and I am doing it. I am closer to my goal every day.

I started last summer, when I realised that taking walks with my dogs and training agility is not enough. I was still uncomfortable in my own body and it was about time to do something about it. So I found the Insanity program and I was hooked. I decided that I was going to do it no matter the struggle. Every time I pushed play and did it I felt sooo proud. Even though I thought I was going to throw up because I was so tired, I did't quit. And no matter how many times I fell on the floor thinking that I can't do it, that I'm too tired, I got back up and I finished the set at my max. I was devoted to do it and I did it. Results did not come as fast as I hoped, because I decided I was not going to have a diet. I was not ready to change my eating habits. And that was the right thing to do. Why? If I would force myself into doing something I was not ready to do, I would fail before I even started.




Thank god for the internet, because without it I could never find as many useful information basically for free. At the beginning there are so many information and you cannot follow them. But then you find a way of eating that makes you feel satisfied, happy and you are not hungry all day long. This is the most important thing! You must never be hungry, you should eat 5 times a day, control your portion sizes and eat HEALTHY. Dieting and eating healthy are two totally different things. If you want a great body, if you want to feel good, that should be your lifestyle, that should be what YOU want. Only then you can succeed. It is hard enough as it is and if you are not 1000% in, it will only be harder.


'' Working out is hard, eating healthy is hard, being overweight is hard. Which hard will you choose?''



After my vacation in Greece I was ready. I started with two months of Turbo Jam and the same day I started to watch what I'm eating. 5 meals a day, more vegetables & fruit, smaller portions, WATER. In my opinion, you have to start slowly. After a while you don't even need to eat that candy or biscuit. You are not hungry and you don't want it. I measured and weighed myself the first day of Turbo Jam and was determined to do it again ONLY at the end. I was sooooo happy, because the results were fantastic!


'' I will win, not immediately, but defenitely.'

That is what keeps you going you know. To see progress, even if it's slow. So now I'm doing 5 months of Turbo Fire. My arms and legs are stronger than ever, I can do more push ups than ever, I can run faster and I can't wait to see what else I can do!

B.A.C.K. 2013

So from 4th- 6th of January there was a big agility competition in Germany that we went to. We only competed on Saturday and Sunday.

I must say that I was really anxious before I had to go to the course with Amy. Agility run on Saturday was not easy at all ( in my eyes anyway), but I was really happy with how Amy did, she was great, the only mistakes were made by me and my nerves :)

Jumping that day was soooo good, right up to the second last jump, when I forgot that it was there and did not send her, therefor we were disc. But like I said, my mistakes, we will work on that :)

Sunday was much better for us. Even though I was probably more nervous than the day before, we managed to get trough agility run with only 10 faults - one bar and the A-frame- the A-frame is just to much fun for Amy, she loves jumping off of it :)

Jumping wasn't really made for me and Amy would handle it just fine if I would be of any use :)


Last but not least is the beautiful Cap, who I chose for Amys first litter. I loved his videos and pictures but now that I finally met him I love him even more! He is just perfect for her and I really think that they are a great match :*
I couldn't belive my eyes when I saw how much Amy liked Cap. She ran around playfully, trying to get his attention.









I am so exited for the litter that will be in spring 2014, I just hope everything goes as planned. :)




Till next time! :)
