Personal Update
Three months ago today, our youngest son was born. It has been a roller coaster of love, laughter and fatigue... a bit less of the last one lately, thank goodness. During one of those sleepless nights, I thought it would be pretty cool if I could pull on every pair of jeans in my closet three months after having a baby. I figured what the heck, go for it. Today I was able to do just that. I did the happy dance in my closet!
A bit snug but YES they fit!
First off, you hear of those moms that slip right into their pre pregnancy jeans when they leave the hospital. That was not me! I gained 40lbs this time and those jeans were not even sliding up my thighs when I got home! So for me, it was a lot of hard work.
I wasn't going to post this update. Then I figured there may be some expecting mom out there who wonders how they will ever feel great in their clothes again. You will and those clothes will feel even better than before because you earned them back, big time! Plus you will have a little extra love in your life :).

Two Amazing Boot Campers
Last weekend, two of my very dedicated boot camp ladies, Kathy and Julie, participated in the San Francisco Marathon and Half Marathon. To say they did an amazing job is an understatement!
While they trained for their races, they continually made boot camp a priority. I can recall Kathy running 20 miles on the weekend and still showing up for Monday's 5:30am class ready to go... amazing!
Myself as well as the other boot camp attendees, truly enjoyed supporting these two women and celebrating in their success!
Here is what they had to say about Fit OC Women Boot Camp and how it contributed to their accomplishments:
"I just want to thank you for the tremendous boot camp training. Last week-end, I ran the San Francisco marathon with my sisters and I'm very pleased with the results. Your boot camp classes provided excellent cross-training for me. In the past, if I tried to go on a long run, I would have hip and sometimes knee pain related to my IT band. Since your workouts are all about movement and development of all muscle groups, I have been virtually pain-free on all of my runs. Also, I have gained strength and endurance from your classes....which were definitely needed, especially for the last 6 miles of the marathon. I have never been athletic; yet I was able to meet my goal of 3 hrs: 50 minutes.....and you helped make this happen! Lastly, your creativity, knowledge, and caring personality make our workouts fun! Thank you for everything!"

"Hillary thanks to your boot camp program I was able to do the San Francisco Half Marathon last weekend! Prior to the marathon I wasn’t really a runner, I ran 3 – 4 miles at a time (mostly walking). The day of the marathon I had endurance and strength which I attribute to the boot camp training that allowed me to finish the half marathon and I felt great!
Thank you Hillary!"
