Awesome Arms April Complete, Moving onto Mighty Muscle May.

30 days of Awesome Arms completed.  Here is a little before and after. It is the same arm, Jeff just took today's photo instead of me taking a selfie in the mirror. Not quite as impressive as one of my friends (who did even better than awesome!) but you can still see a difference.


We are now moving onto May's challenge "Mighty Muscle May." If you care to join me, here is the calendar care of Pinterest.

January Challenge - Half way update!

Image
I've made it to the  half way point in the January Fitness Challenge! So far so good, I've actually stuck to my goals and followed through on everything I said I would. Here is a little recap on my goals for this month:  - Reduce Added Sugar (No alcohol, no sweets/dessert, no sugar in my coffee/tea or anything else, no artificial sweetener)  - Gym minimum 2x a week  - January Fitness Challenge Calendar  - Calorie counting for 31 days So how have I been doing? On Jan 1 I weighed myself. Bad news, those 5lbs I had lost packed themselves back on during the holidays. I was one part discouraged and one part motivated.  I was starting back from the beginning but, I was going to really focus and kick my own butt this time around. I've really stuck to it and haven't cheated on my goals.  As of Sunday, I've lost 7lbs.......7lbs in 15 days! I really can't believe it, and hardly believe it's possible. I've never lost that fast. Maybe it...

10lbs lost! January challenge complete.

Image
The January challenge came to an end yesterday.  It was a tough 31 days.  Though I would say the first half of the month was far more challenging than the back half.  So, how did it go?  Surprisingly well.  Did the cravings stop? Yes and no. My general sugar cravings did stop and I didn't randomly just grab a piece of chocolate when I was looking for a sweet snack. That said, I never stopped wanting a bowl of ice cream or frozen yogurt. It's my food love. I don't think I can ever live without it. I will just live with less of it than before moving forward. One change that will stick is that I'm fine drinking coffee now without the sugar.  A splash of milk does the trick.  No alcohol -  I haven't h ad any since December 31. No dessert -  Didn't cheat. I thought this would be the thing to break me but, I lasted. Tonight, a scoop of frozen yogurt is on the menu! Cut added sugar/no artificial sweetener -  It turns out a lot of what ...

March Fitness Challenge!

Image
First things first, how did the February challenge go?  Pretty well! I stuck to the daily fitness calendar which was great. I forgot how hard planks were. My whole body is trembling by the last 30 seconds of each plank we do.  With the food challenge, I would say that I am eating more vegetables overall but, I still struggle with getting vegetables into my breakfast each day.  I still take it as a win though, if I'm eating more veggies, that's a good thing, regardless of the time of day. I'm down a total of 13lbs since January 1! With all that said.... it's March which means March Fitness Challenge! It's my month in our fitness group to run a challenge and this month we are focusing on core exercise. Side Planks, Bicycle Crunches, Plank Jacks and Spidermans! You can check out the exercise calendar below. For our food challenge, we will be aiming to drink more water, half your body weight in oz to be exact!  I'm really excited about the challeng...
