New Years Fresh Start



Let's talk about New Year’s resolutions for a minute. You guys know I’ve become a big believer in working out & eating healthy, but not all of us have the time to fit in good workouts every day or focus on great nutrition, especially around the holidays! 

What’s even better is that the Company I work with, just announced that my clients will have unlimited access to all of our fitness programs for an entire year with the All Access BOD Challenge Pack!  What?  This is incredible.  This means access to every single program we have including, any new and upcoming ones.

Well, I need to get back on track big time & I am looking for friends to join me so we can keep each other accountable. Let's make 2017 our year!

Who's with me? If you are interested in being part of a supportive and motivational fitness & nutrition group, please send me a message!

Start your NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS and NEW YEAR with new realistic goals and ways to achieve them! Are you in?

Week 2 Results

So after procrastinating all day Saturday about my work-out, I finally got off my butt and got in done.  I was sweating like there was no tomorrow, but I am so glad I got it in because I felt so much better after it was done.  

Sunday I did my Active Recovery and decorated the Christmas tree and my apartment.  My kids came over for dinner and we had a nice evening.

Monday Morning Weigh In -

I was not ready for this.  After a little cheating over the weekend I figured it wouldn't be good.  So my weight didn't change..I am still 200 lbs.  However, I am down another 3.75".  That is almost 8" lost in 2 weeks.

This is why I always say, "don't worry about what the scale says".  How do your clothes fit? Mine are definitely looser, even my yoga pants.  This is what we call a Non Scale Victory (NSV).  Your weight might not being changing, but you could definitely be losing inches.  This is why I not only take my weight prior to starting a program, but I take my measurements as well.  Because seriously, if I went off the scale alone, I would probably give up.

We have to remember that muscle weighs more than fat so, you could be building muscle as well as losing fat, but you won't see a weight difference.  It is so important to take your measurements because that is a true statement of loss!!!

I can't wait to see my 3 week results.

Fighting for it this round

So after months of just going through the motions, but not fighting to lose the weight I decided to go full stream ahead.  Through the Company I represent and am a Fitness Coach for, I bought their newest fitness program that is intense.  I am following the meal plan as well as the work out plan, and let me tell you it is kicking my butt!  After the first week, I lost 2½ pounds and 4 inches in total AND that was with having a cheat meal, a margarita and few cookies.  Think of how well I could have done without the cheat meal and alcohol. However, I have learned that if I don't, do at least a little cheat...I will go off the deep end and cheat BIG! I've been doing the monthly accountability groups and eating right, but this is the first time I have completely 100% committed to the program and I am definitely feeling and seeing the difference.

You have seen my before and after pictures (that is if you have been following my posts ;), but here is my most recent picture after losing 108 lbs!

Look I have a waist and yes that is a smile. 

If you would like more information about the program I am following or would be interested in trying it as well as be a part of our accountability group, send me an email at myweightlossjourneybegins@gmail.com
