Bye Bye Coffee
I am going to do an experiment.  I am wondering if my recent coffee addiction has led to my 4 pound weight gain and stopped my weight loss efforts.  After doing a quick search online, it seems that is is quite possible.  So I am going to do an experiment and try to stop drinking my coffee and see what happens.  I am also going to work on cutting out diet soda as well, but I believe it will be best...

Not Giving Up!
Today I did not feel at all like exercising. I am starting to feel discouraged at my lack of progress lately and having to work really hard at staying focused. But afterwards I was very glad I did. I even did an extra cardio workout go try and burn off some extra fat. I keep telling myself to not give up because in the long run it will be worth all my hard work and sacrifices. Eventually I...

Day 2 of my 2 Day Fast
Apparently I am meant to eat.  I struggled all day yesterday.  Wound up taking my kids to the park for a couple hours so I couldn’t wonder into the kitchen and gawk at the food I was not allowed to have. Weight this morning: 136.4lbs

2 Day Fast
Today I am starting my 2 Day Fast to kick start my weight loss and reach my goal of 20 pounds in 3 months.  This is my breakfast, lunch, and dinner for the next 2 days.   I have tried this fast 2 times before and failed, unable to finish due to headaches and unbareable hunger.  This time I have my brother on  my side and hopefully together we can do this! Oh yes, begining weight: 138.4lbs

Weightloss Goal
My goal is to get to 120lbs, which means I need to lose almost 20 pounds at this point.  My weight keeps fluctuating within a 5 pound range that I have not been able to break through.  This weekend I am planning on doing Beachbody’s 2 Day fast and hopefully that will do the trick.  Wish me luck!!

Beachbody Coaching Fact vs. Fiction
getfitwithjenn: WHOEVER WROTE THIS - THANK YOU!!!!  I received a brilliant email yesterday from my top coach in Colorado, Mike Bent, and I absolutely have to share it with every one who thinks that BB is a pyramid scheme: “My fiance and I were having a discussion the other day over a remark that one of her friends made. That remark went something like this “oh, that is just one of those pyramid...

Shakeology Day 4
Today I decided to road test my Shakeology and took it to work for lunch.  I don’t have a shaker cup yet so I used a water bottle I had to shake it up in.  It didn’t shake up too good for me though.  I think that I didn’t have enough room left over in the water bottle for it to move around in so it didn’t mix up completely.  But it still tasted good. Also, I was not as...

Shakeology Day 2
It was suggested to me to make my shake with 2 cups liquid and 1 cup ice so I tried it this morning. I was very unhappy with this version. It was too thin and watery to me and I ended up adding more ice to thicken it up. It made so much that it filled 2 large cups but I felt as if I needed to drink it all myself to get all the nutrients and benefits. Also, my husband seems to be against all...

Yesterday I threw caution to the wind and enjoyed the evening with my husband and some not so healthy food choices. First I gave in to my craving of peanut butter and have no idea how much I actually ate out of that jar. On the plus side it was the new natural kind I just got so none if those evil add-ins. Then because we were going to a bowling party for his job, I skipped my Turbo workout...

Busy Day Meal Solution
Wednesdays are busy days now that the kids are going to Awana at church and I am participating in the women’s bible study. I have just enough time to get home, pick up the kids, get my workout in, start some laundry, and then off to church. There is hardly anytime for dinner. My solution….a delicious shake. I have normally just been having it plain chocolate but today I got...
