I feel really bad that I haven't posted on my blog in a while! So this week I have decided to start back blogging! I really enjoy it and I hope by sharing my honest journey to health and fitness that I will inspire someone! :)
So that being said I must tell you that my journey so far has been full of ups, downs, turns, setbacks (well you get the picture)! I fell off the wagon but I'm determined to saddle up and finish out 2015 in the best shape of my life! Today I started a workout program that just so happens to come with a complete nutrition plan. Just what I need to take the guess work out my nutrition and to get the best results. The saying goes results come from 80% of what goes into your mouth and 20% of the work you put in. I've learned that the saying is true. Starting The 21 Day Fix today and I must say I'm legit excited!!!
Everything I need to get started.
Eating Plan and food containers.
Here we GO!!!
The best part is that I get to complete this program with others ladies in a support group. We will give each other support and accountability and achieve results together!! I will give an update each week on how it's going, my thoughts on the workouts and what I'm putting in my mouth! ;) I will share daily on Facebook and Instagram as well. Follow along!
Yesterday I woke up and got to work!! I know that the key to making this week a successful one is planning. From the Eating Plan I wrote my meal plan for the week ahead and made a short grocery list. I already had almost everything I needed in the pantry. I spent a little time searching for yummy but clean recipes on the internet and deciding what I wanted to eat. I did a little meal prepping in the evening and packed my bag for work. I'm all ready for day 1!!
Then onto the worst part the before pictures!! I knew this would be tough. Pictures do not lie! I've been drinking my Shakeology daily but my workouts have been off and my nutrition well let's just say I've been eating whatever I want. Just being honest!! Remember the 80% nutrition rule from above, yep it's true. It was eye opening to see a difference in my body from the lack of healthy choices I've made lately. My "jiggle spots" aka tummy and thighs need some much needed improvement. I will use the pictures to motivate me and push through the next 21 days! I know what I'm working for now and that makes a difference!!
Taking pictures in a sports bra and shorts is not something I typically do. To me it just isn't something I'm comfortable doing. BUT I'm asking my challengers to do this too and I want to fully support them in their journey. I will be right their with them with the uncomfortable assignments.
I'm not a morning workout person so evening workouts are my jam! My friend and fellow coach Anna decided to commit to The 21 Day Fix with me so after work we worked out together. With The 21 Day you complete a different workout each day throughout the week and there is a modifier who modifies each move that you can follow. SCORE!! We did make it through the first workout with crazy sweat and weak legs! But WE got through it!!
