***If you are anything like me you will need pictures to look at while you are at the gym. You can Google the magazine to purchase or go to your library and find a copy! That way it’s easy enough to bring it with you to the gym as a reference guide***

Remember a few rules that we talked about on the last post? Eat all your meals on a salad plate, and no refined sugar.  This week I've double-checked everything that I wanted to consume to verify there is no sugar of any kind. The only thing I used was honey for my breakfast coffee. I had to get rid of my coffee creamer because it had sugar. 

To make things a lot easier I eat the same breakfast in the morning. Plus, when I cook dinner I usually make extra so I can just repeat my meals or change up my meals but with the same protein. Makes it a lot easier especially when dealing with food allergies or any diet that you decided to follow.  Over the years I've learned to adapt to making my life easier when I am making meals I automatically cook extra. 

Take a look at the pictures of the pages from the the magazine FitnessRx FOR WOMEN! February 2010. This is a preview of what we will be doing.


  















The last one we added to this workout is Plank. Set your phone clock to stopwatch, and when you are in position hit start. Its okay if you don't make it long because I sure didn't. It’s a base line and when we continue to do this program you will find yourself increasing the amount of seconds while holding this position. We tried this one 2 times to get a good reading on how long we can hold this position (which was not long ha ha). 




Looking forward to finding our buff bodies! Good luck!

Week 4 Bringing Buff Back

Now she did not have much weight to lose as I do. But she still looks phenomenal! Friday, June 17th  Today is my first day back in the gym from my intestinal inflaming. It felt GREAT! I completed 40 minutes of cardio on an elliptical machine. After completed some additional stretching on one of their machines. I can feel the stretch all the way down my lower back.  My goal in 8 weeks is to restart Jackie Warner's 4 week workout! But first I have to iron out some issues.  Saturday, June 18th       8-)) I woke up extremely tight and sore. I started my day with Back Pain Yoga. The first pose where you put one leg on the other legs thigh, and try and grab your foot to stretch out. Oh Boy! I could barely touch my toes with only one hand LOL!! The second position where we put our feet together and bring them up to you. It felt like glass in my back and hips. The Lord of the Fishes pose, let me just say I can't really get into that position. I had...

Spicy Vegan Fajitas

Spicy Vegan Fajitas This dish is AMAZING! First time I tried baking my fajitas instead of the traditional frying pan. I would definitely make this recipe many more times to come. The best part about this recipe is that it is super easy to make, and it is quick and easy. Plus, making extra for tomorrows lunch is a MUST! What I love the most about fajitas is that you can spice things up or turn the spice down a few notches. I know every time I make a fajita I change up my seasonings. Ingredients: ·       Colored peppers, red, yellow, orange ·       Onions ·       Cauliflower ·       Mushrooms ·       Habanero pepper ·       1 Tbsp. Chili powder ·       1 Tbsp. Ground Cumin ·       1 Tbsp. Garlic powder ·       1 Tbsp. Papri...

Grocery Shopping List

One questions I get asked all the time is about what a grocery list should look like.  While I can’t tell you to go out and buy EVERYTHING on this list. However,  I am going to give you an idea of the general things that you are going to be using on a daily basis. Proteins/Red Container Eggs Fish- Salmon & Tilapia Flank Steak Fresh Chicken Breast Lean Ground Chicken Lean Ground Turkey Pork Tenderloin Protein Powder Turkey Breast Veggie Burgers Honestly I stay away from red meat, processed lunch meats, turkey bacon, ham, and any kind of pork product.  I know part of it is on the list but when it comes to clean eating and nutritional value the things I have listed above are much better options than processed meats.  Turkey bacon, lunch meat, and ham all are higher in sodium, and can cause you to retain water.   Fruits/Purple Container Apples Berries like Strawberries, Blackberries, Raspberries Cantalou...
