HAPPY B-DAY TO ME!!!!! I did cardio/recovery today and I was happy that I didn't have to kill myself today, but kinda of sad it was so slow! I did go out to eat for my B-day and had endless shrimp at Red Lobster! Here is the damage that I did! OMG! This was only my dinner! Good thing I ate good the rest of the day!

Insanity day 3!

I feel so great today!! My body feels like its purging itself! I sweated more than the first two days!! I was super sore today, but I made it threw with some small extra breaks! See how sweaty I was!

Insanity day 2!

O.K. today getting up and down the stairs was definitely a chore! I was so sore from the fit test yesterday that I didn't think that I could even do the workout today! But I did and here's what I thought of it!

Insanity day 1!

O.K. so I went into this thinking that "Hey I did P90X! It can't be harder than that!" Well wrong! Insanity kicked my butt and this was just the fit test! See my video and I'll tell you more!

Feed your furnance!

Hello ladies and gents! well while out and about today I stop to realize that I had only eaten twice today! I was so busy that I had forgotten to eat!! One of the most important things that a human being has to do, I also realized that it had been like this all week!
You must, MUST! Feed your furnace, if not your body will start to use muscle for energy and while yes you may lose weight at first you will start to stall and start to put the weight back on. This is, because your body will go into starvation mode and will want to protect itself therefore using your muscles for energy! So do your self a favor and get yourself a high quality meal replacement to help you out on those days when you are busy and just can't fit in a full meal.

Have you completed a round of P90X?

Have you completed your first round of P90X and you are ready for more! Well Beachbody and Tony Horton have come together to bring you one-on-one! Thats right it's like your working out with Tony Horton mono e mono! So what are you waiting for get up and get moving!!!

Have you fallen off the wagon AGAIN!

Well I did and I am here to tell you that it happens if not for one reason then it's for another! The important part is being able to jump back on and get things back in order, there is no reason to cry over spilled milk! You can't go back in time and do that missed workout and you can't go back in time and not eat those cookies, so look forward and keep your head held high and know this is not a sprint, but a marathon.

Insanity challenge/contest!

So i'm back people! and its on like donkey kong!(Do people even say that anymore?lol!) I will be hosted the first ever Insanity contest/challenge! I am ready to get rid of this last 10-15 lbs and reach my full hotness potential lol!
I have not decided how I want to do the prize yet, but I think it may be either another workout series or the recovery drink or something like that! I ordered mine early this morning and will be doing update videos frequently! So if you are ready for the insanity lets get it poppin and shed the fat!!
If you don't have this program yet just click the pic with my beachbody logo and that will take you to my store where you can order it and get started!

Lets do it!!!

Guess whos back? Yup and it's on!!!!

feeling like crap

Hello all,
I am writing this as I sit here in a hispital bed,because of chest/abdominal pain. I have had this for the last week but it is worse today. I just wanted to let you all know why I haven't been posting lately.

Beachbody Coaching

Diabetes and Fitness

Thats it! It's on!

Thats right I'm back and I'm PISSED! Why you ask? Well I am pissed, because I let my life and my stress become my hindrance! Yes I am having issues in my life, but I should make time for exercise instead of pigging out and feeling sorry for myself! I will not gain my weight back and I will get down to 135-140 come hell or high water! I re stared the last phase of P90X and I am now in my 11th week starting today I will be also starting another program when done with this one, but I am not sure which one probably Chalean or another round of P90X! I am determined to keep this site up to date so please bare with me.

Burn out-vs-Laziness-vs-Stress

O.K. so I have been having a really crappy 2 weeks or so with everything that has been going on in my life, so needless to say I have really been slacking with my workouts(Yes even coaches slip and fall!) and my diet! Well lets just say it was a hot a** mess! I have eaten so poorly it is ridiculous! I kind of figured that once I hit my goal weight my motivation might take a dip, but this is ridiculous. I also feel like I have no energy, and I feel like this is because I have eaten to much crap over the last two weeks.
I started to think, am I burned out from working out 6 days a week for 2 months straight or am I just lazy or stressed out? Well I have come to the conclusion that it is a combination of all 3, my body is kind of rebelling against me, but I have to be strong enough to push back. Taking a break is O.K. but knowing when to get back in the game is very important because I don't want to undue my results!
I will be restarting my phase 3 of P90X, phase 3 seems to have a curse, because I know a lot of people who screw up in the last phase. It is funny because I used to say that would never happen to me because"That's just stupid to get that far and the fall off in the last month" Ah well! I am technically in my 12th week but will be starting over on Monday and hopefully I will be able to reach my 2nd goal of 140 lbs.
So if you fill like you are in a funk please know you are not alone and we will get threw this together!

I Apologize!

I Apologize for not posting the last few days, I have been under a lot o stress lately and have not and the energy to post any entries. I have been dealing with my moms issues and taking her back and forth to appointments and talking to Drs. etc. Hopefully over the next few days everything will start to mellow out and I can get back to posting everyday or so! Thank you all for bearing with me.

Variety is the spice of life!

This is so true. As you all know I am doing P90X and almost done! I have a few weeks left and while P90X is great I was starting to get a little bit bored with it, not that it's not a great workout, but I just felt like I needed a little change, so instead of yoga X today I did Turbo Jam cardio and Turbo Jam sculpt and I figured it would be easy, because "hey! I do P90X and that's hard core" well let me tell you I could not be more wrong!! I sweated and I worked my muscles to a burn that was just sick! I had been contemplating whether I would either do another round of P90X or Chalean extreme but after doing Turbo Jam again I think I am leaning toward Chalean Extreme, but I can't say for sure yet. I know that I will do Chalean extreme for sure, but I don't know if I am ready to let P90X go just yet.

Stay tuned to see what I do next.

Gardening is really hard work!!

O.K. well atleast it is when you have to dig it up, till it, and move the dirt from one side to the other! My garden is a pretty nice size I would say about 10'x18' s thats a lot of dirt and I live in Az so the dirt is really hard and has to be sifted. So yesterday I moved the dirt and leveled it and let me tell you it was one hell of a workout! I sweated something fierce and my arms were on fire as well as my back.


My poor hands hurt so bad and are super blistered. Tommorow I will be adding 7 bags of compost and tilling that in to the dirt and hopefully I will be able to start planting tommorow, bt more than likely it won't be until Monday.


Anywho heres a pic of my naked garden.

This is before I leveled it yesterday, So I moved all that dirt back. I am telling you it was a great arm and back workout, and it took about 2 hours or so.

What's in your garden?

I have decided that in my quest to become healthier I should start a garden! In this economy fruit and veggies are not cheap so why not grow your own, I can't wait to be able to go outside to my backyard and pick everything I need to make a yummy salad! I also plan n growing herbs. I really want this garden to be organic so I am doing my research on that as well. It is not concrete yet, but I think I will plant,

Green onions
broccoli
garlic
cilantro
basil
oregano
tomatoes
strawberries
watermelon
snow peas
grapes
lettuce

So now that you know whats in my garden let me know whats in yours!

I love TURBO JAM!

O.K. so I know I am on P90X, but today was yogaX and I was just not feeling it and needed a break! So instead of being lazy I pulled out turbo jam and blew the dust off it and pushed play. Mind you I have had Turbo Jam for like 4-5 years and I used it maybe twice! Well today I am so glad I pulled out because I had so much fun doing it and I sweated up a storm! I will be sure to keep this in rotation! Especially when I need a change and I might do it as extra cardio in the mornings.

Carbs are the devil after 7:00!

Well they are for me, so before anyone stones me! let me just say that this is my opinon and I know a lot of people who agree me on this subject.

So why do I feel like carbs are the devil after 7pm? Well I feel this way, because when I eat carbs(starchy complex carbs, i.e. potatoes,rice,bread.)after 7pm I find that I start holding on to my weight which makes since if you really think about it.

Why does it make sense? Well if you eat a whole bunch of carbs and then go lay down and watch T.V. and then go to sleep what do you think happens to the carbs in your system? Well let me tell you what happens, carbs are used in our bodies for fuel and are broken down for that reason. If you do not do something to burn off those carbs that you ate your body says "hey I guess were just chillin so I'll go ahead and store these carbs away for a rainy day right on your tush!"

When I decided to change this small thing in my life I really started to see some weight loss! Now please don't take this to the extreme, r example if you work night shift of course you will be eating at different times and if you workout at night you really need to find what works for you. I work out at night a lot and now if it is past 7pm I will have a salad for my carbs and some lean protein.

While this works great for me it might not for you so try it and see if it helps you out.
