Week 3 of T25

So I just finished up Week 3 of T25. I am still having good results, I am trying to stay on track and eat right,I watch what I am eating all the time. I try to keep sweets and goodies to a minimum. This week I only missed 1 day of workout. Well 2 actually but I made the 2nd one up, so I doubled up on Thursday and then again on Friday as per the schedule. I am seeing the changes especially in how my clothes are fitting me. I feel so much better in them and things that were tight not that long ago are getting much looser. The pounds lost are slowing down but then I know because last weekend I ate a lot of bad stuff so I am sure that is the problem. Although I did eat pretty healthy all week long. So here are my updated stats. I have lost 4.9lbs since the start of T25 and 11.5inches overall.

So official current stats are:
Weight: 147.7lbs
Chest: 33"
Waist: 26"
Hips:36"
Thigh:21"
Arm: 11.5"

Halfway done with week 3!

Time is just FLYING by with Insanity so far! I just got my Energy and Endurance in the mail today and with having Pure Cardio to do I got nervous, so I downed it, I wasn't really a fan of the taste. I think it was needing to add more water to the drink, I will try it on Friday. The idea of it is supposed to help you push through your workouts and burn more calories. Normally I am dying half way through Pure Cardio and too tired to continue on. I got through all of it today and then took a short break and jumped into Cardio Abs. I am pretty impressed with it so far. My other thought I recently had is I will not show my photos until the end of the program. I will post about me progress and stats but I will save any and all photos till the end. So we can be shocked and surprised together! I am debating on what my move will be after Insanity, maybe try Brazilian Butt Lift again just for a fun short program. Some of my group members want to try Focus T25 a new program by Shaun T, I am considering it, although it intimidates me as well. But I am also not an Insanity graduate just yet. I will keep you all update on my progress as it moves along!

2 Weeks into Insanity... Making Progress!

I am two weeks done with Insanity, I skipped Friday and Saturday this past week because I did a 5k and after that I am usually SO exhausted just from walking that I cannot do another thing, Friday I was just resting my muscles, I didn't want my calves all sore. Today is my second fit test, I will update with those results this afternoon, I am SO nervous about it! I have no clue why I get myself so worked up, I know I can do it. I know if I need to take a break I can hit the pause button and no one will think badly of me.  My biggest struggle these past two weeks has been getting through the whole workout, I really tire out easily, I think mainly its from my body adjusting to the hard workouts again plus I have read post surgery it takes MONTHS to get back to normal. :(  I have been trying to eat healthy and get lots of rest, I realized I was not eating enough calories when the scale wasn't budging, I kept trying SO hard to not eat poorly and I was averaging too few calories. So this weekend I had a cheat on Friday night and Sat morning the scale dropped. Saturday I tried to behave and yesterday as well, lots of running around this weekend. Oh and yesterday I was sitting down in the afternoon while my little guy napped and my right arm was KILLING me, so I was all trying to flex to see what was up, I have a lil mini muscle! YAY!!! I am getting some muscle now! See I am a dork for my excitment. Hahaha. I also will be adding Energy and Endurance drink to my workouts this week when it arrives, so I am working out to Insanity, drinking Shakeology and will be adding the new supplement.

So time for some stats:
Weight: 156.5 lbs (woot!)
Chest: 33.5"
Waist: 27"
Hips: 38" ( I may have done them wrong previously no clue still learning)
Thighs: 23"
Arms: 12" !!!!

So there it is folks, my progress so far. This is a 60 Day program so I hope to lost more in the coming month. I will post fit test stats this afternoon. :)

Fit Test:
Switch Kicks: 55
Power Jacks: 50
Power Knees: 90!
Power Jumps(modified): 74
Globe Jumps: 7
Suicides: 18
Push ups: 23
Low Plank obliques: 30

Day 4 of Chalean

So on April 1st I started Chalean extreme, its mainly weight lifting and muscle building. Day 1 wasn't bad, day 2 was rest, Day 3 was more weight training and I was surprised how some things I could use heavier weights than I expected. Today was cardio, Burn intervals and abs. I had to pause and sit down for a bit during Burn intervals because I got tired out from working so hard. Still it felt good otherwise it alternated weight training, very light weights and it was more for endurance. Then some cardio, the moves were all fairly easy some kick boxing from Turbo Fire. So far no scale or inches lost but I will check again on Monday for my weekly check ins.

Shakeology

 As you all know I am a beachbody coach, I decided to coach to keep myself motivated as well as motivating others and it really helps a lot. Well we have this GREAT shake called shakeology you drink it once a day as snack or a meal. I mix mine up as my lunch normally. I do chocolate silk, shakeo and pb, sometimes I throw in some nutella if we have it on hand. Right now Shakeology is $119.95 it will be going up $10 as of April 1st. If you buy yours on home direct now you will have the lower price for LIFE on non vegan! So get in on this great deal. Every order of Shakeology this month comes with the shaker cup for FREE! I use a blender for mine but its up to you on how you want to make it. Shakeology is made of all natural ingredients no chemicals and its super healthy. Trust me I have done all the other shakes out there and this by far is the best in all areas.

Resting

  So I am a week post op and still laying around like the dr says I should. I am bored but I know that if I attempt to overdo it now I will just be laid up longer or in a much worse situation, neither are appealing to me. So far I am keeping weight off and not gaining anything since the surgery and have been in fact losing. I am hoping to start keeping up with this more often so more people can follow me in my journey. My goal is to start doing Chalean Extreme as soon as the dr clears me to work out again, its a 3 month program to help build muscle and that will also increase weight loss. I would love to get all toned up get rid of my yucky arm flab and Chalene is an AWESOME trainer. I will never stop singing her praises, she is my favorite! :)  

Beachbody news, price increase on Shakeology coming April 1st, order yours now to lock in the $10 lower price for LIFE when you order on home direct which also gives you free shipping.
