21 day fix

If you follow me on facebook or Instagram you know that I been focused on the 21 day fix for the last few weeks.  I LOVED this program so much that I plan on following it for another 21 day and most likely continue it all summer long.  I normally eat a clean diet but I been a little generous with my serving sizes on a few things...Peanut butter, cheese.. etc.  This plan is all about measuring, food prepping and drinking a lot of H2O.. it also comes with workout videos.

Beginning weight: 154
Ending weight: 146

I still have 2 more pounds to drop to get to my goal summer weight.  I have no doubt that I will get there with the fix and probably will go beyond the 144 goal! I would LOVE it if I hit 140 but I don't want to focus on the number.  I want to really focus on how I feel, look and how I am sleeping. 

The 21 day fix has taught me that I need to get more veggies in.  I seriously hate veggies but my body; mostly my thyroid needs clean healthy veggies to work properly. The only thing I haven't loved in this program is how much money I am spending at the grocery.  I will never understand why healthy foods are so freaking expensive.  I keep telling myself that I am investing in my future and my overall health. I plan on hitting up the farmers market this summer for cheaper veggies!

Who would benefit from the fix?

Easy.. EVERYONE! This is a good program to get you back on track or to start you on the right track! I think this is good for someone that is starting out or for someone that is a lifelong health nut like me.   Sometimes we fail to remember the basics which is why I needed the program.  The workouts are GREAT for a beginner or someone who doesn't workout out daily. 

The picture on the right is an example of what my fridge looks like after grocery shopping.  Filled with good healthy, bright, colorful foods... my body can't get enough of it!

How often do you measure your foods? Do you sprinkle a little extra cheese on your salad like me? :)

Mission I'mPOSSIBLE: May Goals

Mission I'mPOSSIBLE: May Goals: I have 15 days of school left in the 2013-2014 school year.  I seriously can't wait for summer because of all the amazing things I ha...

May Goals

I have 15 days of school left in the 2013-2014 school year.  I seriously can't wait for summer because of all the amazing things I have planned out.  I am heading to Mexico, Canada and Vegas...maybe Denver too!  I wish I could fast forward to May 31 but my life doesn't come with a fast forward button.  In the mean time I need to focus on my May goals.  I have to be super strict this month with food, workout and mostly REST.  Here are my May goals...

 

May Goals

1. Hold a handstand.

2. Run 2-3 times a week.

3. Weight lift 3-4 times a week.

4. Try 2 new things.

5. Walk a mile a day. 

6. Continue the Fix. 

1. Hold a handstand. 

I am following a lady on Instagram who is teaching her followers the proper way to complete a handstand.  I want to hold a handstand on the beach in Mexico...I don't know why?!?! It just seems like such a great goal to have with a super sweet picture on the beach. 

2. Run 2-3 times a week. 

I been taking a step back from running because my body was craving it big time.  I haven't laced my running shoes up in over a 2 weeks while I miss running the time off has been amazing.  I plan on slowly getting back into the running routine.  Two short runs and one medium run for now... Long runs will have to wait till late June or early July. 

3. Weight Lift 3-4 times a week. 

I am getting myself ready for swimsuit season! I don't think I have to say why weight lifting is important but I will.  Muscles are smaller than fat! So I am building the muscles to look leaner when I am in a swimsuit.. that's all! Plus, muscles are HOT!

4. Try 2 new things. 

I would like to try Boxing this month.... thinking about my other new thing.

5.  Walk a mile a day. 

I love that the weather has turned which makes me want to be out in it more.  Louie will be thanking me for adding this as a May goal! 

6.  Continue the fix. 

Clean Foods + Weight lifting = Awesome looking muscles. 

I have a feeling this month is going to be awesome! Follow along to see if I reach my May goals.

Things I am up too..

Three things I learned in April about myself..
1. I love photography.. or should I say finding a beautiful spot to take pictures with my iphone.
2. I LOVE yoga so much! I am seriously considering becoming a yoga instructor!
3. I needed to change my diet and my workout routine... change is always good to keep the body guessing!!!!

Top three Yoga pictures in nature over the last 2 weeks

This picture wouldn't be complete without Louie. Dancing in the rain with the Dancer Pose.

Hollow Back pose using the tree for support. 

 

This pose was PERFECTLY fit with the barn in the background! I love the colors :)

Food. Workout. Rest. WATER.

Those four things have been completely spot on the last 3 weeks.  I been killing the workouts, eating clean foods, drinking water (still need to workout on this more) and getting enough sleep for recovery.  The Result? Dropping 6 pounds... BOOM!

The below picture is day 3 of the 21 day fix.  Basically, I have to measure everything and keeping all food clean.  I normally eat clean but I been a little friendly with the peanut butter lately :( I haven't had peanut butter in 12 days.  #mightneedrehab
