P90 Day 18

Today was Sweat A, I don't find it as challenging as I did in the beginning...and I think this is good meaning I am getting stronger and it is getting easier. I think this is a FABULOUS BEGINNER workout. This is where someone new to workout out, returning to working out, or very overweight/obese should start. YOU are the target people for P90!! So what are you waiting for??

Here is my hrm stats for todays...you can see not that hard, YOU can do it!!

As I wait for you to join me in P90, I am going to start a T25 group on Monday. So I will have a few group options for you to join me in....which program peaks your interest....


Focus T25

P90

21 Day Fix

Piyo

There are many more Beachbody programs to choose from...which one do you want to join  me in to help reach your goals?

Not sure which program is best for you, join my team with a free account and we can discuss your options.

P90 Day 17

I haven't felt well the last 2 days so I have only gotten walks in, but today was back to routine, 4:45am and hittin it on Sculpt A!!




I am still trying to figure out my new Armour 39 heart rate monitor. I see some people burn calories into the thousands...they must be doing some high intensity workouts. Will be interesting to see how my Sweat workout tomorrow will compare with todays Sculpt numbers.

Looks like I have been neglecting my blog…time to rectify this! A lot has changed since I began beachbody. First I let my weight get higher than I ever thought I would get…and knowing there was a trip to Hawaii at the end of this year…yikes time to get my booty in gear and DO something rather than continue to complain about it.

In May 2014 I started with 21 day fix. I did 2 weeks perfectly…then family came for a 10 day visit…and lets just say I wasn’t as good as I should have been. I didn’t gain my weight back so that was a plus, but I didn’t lose anymore either.

Come August 2014 I found Piyo. I am a huge fan of Pilates and this is a pilates yoga mix. It is a 60 day program which is a bigger commitment than the 21 day fix. I only lost a few pounds, but the stamina and flexibility I gained were HUGE. I was very happy about this. The meal plan is quite similar to the 21 day fix so it was it was nice to not have to make big changes in my routine.

Now here we are October 2014…and I am doing P90…which I am in love with!! I am only 2 weeks in to the 90 day program and I am down 4.5 pounds. The meal plan is very different, so I am adjusting to the change.

Also I am walking every day I can along with drinking Shakeology every day. So now that brings you up to date…since I began my weight loss journey in February 2014 I am down 17 pounds and hoping to lose 13 more.

I would love to have you join my team where I can help you meet your goals as well.

21 Day Fix Week 1 Results

No one reads my blog, but since I like to have a record of my progress I will still post lol

First my favorite meal so far is:
1 Gluten Free Whole Grain Waffle
1 Spoon of Nut Butter
Honey Drizzled Over
1 Egg Fried in Coconut Oil Spray
2 Slices of Turkey Bacon

1 Red/Protein - 1 Yellow/Carb - 1 Spoon

I did quite well and my only cheat this week was a smidge of  half n half in my one cup of coffee a day.

For "treats" the Shakeologys work well for that:

  • Strawberry Shakeology with a banana blended with ice
  • Vanilla Shakeology with 1/2tsp vanilla extract blended with ice
We ate out twice, breakfast is easy I had a cheese omelet and bacon. Dinner was at Chili's and I had from the lighter choice menu a steak and steamed broccoli. 

So I feel I did really well, I lost 3.5 pounds and 1 inch off my waist.

Looking forward to next week.

21 Day Fix - Day 2

Day 2:

5:00am - got up and walked 1.33miles

6:30am - Breakfast - Eggs scrambled and served over sauteed onions and bell peppers, coffee



10:30am - Snack - Strawberries and Shakeology Shake


Target has these great colored baggies that work perfect in pre-planning your 21 Day Fix meals (although there is no purple so I am using blue in place of purple since the blue/fat is usually just shredded cheese for me and more useful to use in preparing my fruit for the week)

12:00pm - Lunch - Baked Potato, Broccoli, Shredded Cheese, and a dab of plain yogurt

2:00pm - Snack - Cottage cheese and Pineapple

6:00pm - Dinner - Chicken, Quinoa, and Summer Squash

7:00pm - Snack - Sunflower seeds

21 Day Fix - Day 1

And so we begin. Here is a look into my day...

5:00am - got up and walked 1.75miles

6:30am - Breakfast - Eggs scrambled with cheese and turkey bacon and coffee

10:30am - Snack - Banana

12:00pm - Lunch - Spaghetti squash with homemade marinara sauce and a slice of gluten free toast

2:00pm - Snack - Cottage cheese

3:00pm - Snack - Sunflower seeds

6:00pm - Dinner - Steak and summer squash

7:00pm - Dessert - Peach

I wasn't hungry in the morning and didn't eat the cottage cheese as planned, but come time for my afternoon snack and I realized I left my peach at home (I thought I was soooo prepared!!) so I was glad I had the cottage cheese left over.

I drank 5 16.9 ounce bottles of water.

I skipped one of my carbs, I was just full, but I will try better to get everything in because if you dont eat enough calories you will start to store fat...and well I have enough of that going on.

After I was in bed I realized since I had a carb left over I really could have enjoyed a glass of wine at dinner as one of my 3x a week treat switch outs.

  • Red = Protein and I get 4 of these a day 
  • Yellow = Starches/Carbs and I get 2 of these a day
  • Blue = Cheese/Nuts/Avocado/Coconut and I get 1 of these a day
  • Orange = Dressings/Seeds and I get 1 of these a day
  • Along with 2 Spoons of Nut Butters and Olive Oil
  • 3x a week you can switch out a starch/carb for a treat or special beverage

Today is my prep day to get a jump start for the week to be prepared for this weeks meals, which I have all planned out...preparation is KEY. Today I am pre cooking....
