Hiit Mama Donna
“I am a 36 year old mom of two girls (15&6) and two boys (4&1)
and have a husband who coaches varsity basketball and teaches high
school students, so life at our house is crazy! We live in Eureka, MO
and I work from home and needed a quick fix to this body after 4
kids! My sister Denise introduced me to this website and I am so
thankful that she did! I have never gotten into shape this fast and
have felt so good before! I played college basketball and I feel
stronger now then I did back then! I have lost 8 pounds since the
challenge started…wish I would have checked my inches but I plan on
doing it this challenge! Thank you JENNI for all your encouragement and
all the workouts you post everyday! Looking forward to the next 90
days!!!!”

90 DAY CHALLENGE IV: DAY 4
Vi-shake
no caffeine
Donna is my sister! She just celebrated her 36th bday yesterday. We are 1 year and 4 days a part. She has had 4 kids (oldest is 15 and youngest is 15 months old). I am so proud of her that she has been able to stick to these workouts! She has always been athletic but couldn't find time to get in a traditional workout (1 hr of running or at the gym). These workouts are like magic I tell her.
If you are new to this blog, stay with us!!!!! Your body will CHANGE and you will be shocked by it. You have found your magic pill.
Thanks again Jenni! We appreciate your dedication to this blog so much.
Thanks Denise! And thanks for reminding me to add her bio!! ?
Thank you for your sweet comments Denise! I love you! And you inspire me? so keep pushing me!!!
