Update Time!

Alright! So....this morning as I was changing into my workout clothes, my hubby comments, "WOW! you're looking different!" He was genuinly surprised at how much my body had changes since starting Insanity. That made me HAPPPPPPY!!! lol! It's about stinkin' time I started LOOKING like I was beating myself up every day! So I had him update my pictures......


And YES! That's only a 1 week difference in the last 2 pictures! No gut being held in! No cheating!! Honest to goodness RESULTS!! And even though I only lost a pound in the last pic, you can clearly see that I lost MUCH more than that! In just 32 days I have almost los my upper belly (still working on my lower...but it WILL go away!! It better! Or I'm cutting it off!!LOL!) Oh, and pay no attention to my mess hair or lack of make-up.......please!



And look at my "love handles" how they are shrinking! Hubby says I need to ditch the plaid shorts! LOL!! Well, my birthday is next wednesday my dear! (hint hint)


If I can get these results doing insanity and drinking Shakeology, so can you!!


In the words of Shaun T:


"YOU can Frickin' DO this!"

Can You Afford Shakeology??

Cost was the biggest deterrent for me before I started drinking Shakeology! But I finally came to realize that I was investing in MY health! And after being on it for a month, I feel GREAT! And I'm....ummm..... how shall I put this......regular!!! This may be a little TMI but before Shakeology I would ummmm 'go' once a week! And to have a healthy and happy bowel you should 'go' at least once a day! Well, in the words of Johnny Carson, "I did not know that!" And after my appendectomy a year ago, I have been anything but regular! BUT (no pun intended!) now that I drink Shakeology every morning, I'm like clockwork! Every day! Yup! Gold star for me!!! :-P



Read the following response from Barbie Decker to a customer:



"You really can. There is really no excuse. I felt disturbed that I had left out Shakeology from my suggested meal plan, especially given the fact that many of the foods we eat today (particularly our chicken/fish/meat) are of such poor quality. It makes sense that Shakeology would make up for some of the nutrient deficient foods we consume as a society. But, the question remains: Can you afford it?



If I left it out of my meal plan, then somewhere in my mind I was saying, “No, there is little room for it in a tight budget.” However, somehow that just didn't jive with me. Let’s do the math together and you decide.



The cost of Shakeology on autoship (you get free shipping) is $119.99. Plus tax, say around $126, for one month’s supply (1 serving a day for 30 days). Each shake comes out to about $4.20. The coach price for Shakeology on autoship is $89.99 or around $96 total. Each serving comes out to $3.20.



Too much you say? Not if you are using Shakeology as a meal replacement, which, by the way, will help you lose weight. Remember: Subjects in a 90-Day study lost an average of 10lbs when they replaced just one meal per day with Shakeology.



The cost of an average lunch at a restaurant or take-out: $6 to $9. Plus, even Subway sandwiches which are reputably low-cal average 460 to 560 calories. Shakeology has 140 calories, less than 1 gram of fat per serving, annnnnnd it is truly nutrient rich.



The cost of an average take out or restaurant dinner: $10 & up to be sure.



The cost of a home-cooked lunch or dinner: 6-8 ounces of chicken = $2.00 (and we are talking low-grade chicken), veggies= $1 (frozen veggies are really okay! hurray!) and 1 sweet potato = from .5 to $1.00. Total= about $3.4.



Conclusion: You are spending about $3-4 on a home-cooked meal, the same amount that you would spend on Shakeology.



So what is the big fuss about then? I think our resistance has to do more with our thinking than our actual ability to afford Shakeology, regardless of budget. Somehow, I’m guessing, many people see Shakeology as a luxury item. But is it really? I invite you to watch the following video.



http://myshakeology.com/esuite/home/rkcreations/doctors?marketLocaleCode=en



We think nothing of spending $4 on mass-produced food that doesn't truly nourish us, yet we protest that $4 for Shakeology is too expensive. There’s something awry with our thinking, don’t you think?



To your health and to thinking outside the box."





So there ya go! Think YOU can't afford Shakeology?? Think again.....and again......how 'bout now? Still no?



Well, THINK AGAIN!!! :o)

Half Way There!




Just finished day 30 of Insanity! I'm half way there!!! Feeling stronger every day! Seems my measurements and weight are at a stand-still. Maybe once I start the Max workouts next week I will kick it into high gear and get some more weight/inches off!! (I guess that bowl of ice cream with nummy homemade hot fudge didn't help either......) Can't give up!!! JUST PUSH PLAY!!!



And besides.......................................





Who wouldn't want to look at THAT every day! :-D

Making Progress!

.......well, kinda! I'm typing this as I sit in bed....sick! I've missed 1 day of my Insanity and I feel like I've missed a whole week! I've pushed through the rest of this week though! Not sure if I'm doing myself any favors because it's all in my chest and head. I bend over to stretch and 'go into flat back' then my nose starts to drip. I 'breath deep' and I start to cough. A beautiful site to see, I'm sure!
Anyway....I'm posting my "Fit Test" results so far.
Day 1
Switch kicks.....I wasn't able to do any! So sad!
Power Jacks 29
Power Knees 66
Power Jumps (aka 'slap slaps') 13
Globe Jumps 7
Suicide Jumps (modified for my wrist) 11
Pushup Jacks....ya right!!
Low plank Oblique (on my knees) a big fat 0!

Moving on to Day 15
Switch Kicks 44 baby!!
Power Jacks 36 (+7)
Power Jumps (slap SLAP!) 22 (+9!)
Globe Jumps 9 (+2)
Suicide Jumps 14 (+3)
Pushup Jacks....ya...still no
Low plank oblique (on knees, of course!) 40!

Next fit test day is on day 36!
I can tell I'm already going to do better and maybe not have to modify my moves as much!!

I took another picture today of my progress before my workout this morning. It's only been 25 days and I can see my big ole belly getting smaller! Can't wait until I'm all done and to see my completed hotness! ;)


In 25 days I've lost:
1" on my waist
1" on my chest
2" on my hips
3/4" on my arms
1" on my thighs
AND 10 pounds of FAT! :)
