I recently confessed my food addiction and resulting weight gain. Well, I am excited to tell you that I have been given the opportunity to try out REVABS, a 90-day workout system from BeachBody. REVABS touts that it is the only ab training system designed to burn off the fat and give you a six-pack in just 90 days.

You know that new hottie trainer on this season's Biggest Loser? Yeah, that one! His name is Brett Hoebel. And Brett brings Abcentrics-- his own proven training technique -- to REVABS. Absentrics works your abs from 6 different angles. Your taught how to make every move count by Firing Up Your Abs and engaging your abdominal muscles during every rep of every exercise.

I will be starting REVABS Monday morning, May 23. And I talked my husband into doing it with me. I will not be posting a before picture, well, at least not at first. I'm truly embarrassed by the way I've let myself go, and just cannot put a picture up for the whole world to see… yet.  The first part of REVABS is a 2-week jumpstart. I'll tell you more about it and the 90-day challenge on Monday.

I will be sharing periodically with you how the program is going and my results. So I hope to put up a before pic around day 45, with a pic of how I look at that time. And let me tell you, this is difficult for me. I really could use your support.

Why am I doing this? I want to be healthy. The last time I had my cholesterol checked I was borderline, and I've put on a considerable amount of weight since then. I do not want to have to take medication to control my cholesterol. I feel that I can do it by living a healthy lifestyle. And vanity. Quite simply, I'd like to look good in a swimsuit… not a bikini, mind you, just to look good in a tankini, would be nice.

I also think by doing this so publicly, I will have an added motivator and YOU will be holding me accountable. I don't want to FAIL. My husband questions my putting this added pressure on myself, but I feel it is the best way for me to do this.

So please cheer me on. Give me tips and advice and words of encouragement. I can use all the help I can get.
