Transparency.....

As many of you know, we are back with Advocare and started the 24 day Challenge. Maybe it's from me working in the corporate world and TRANSPARENCY is a word we used a lot. 

I'm going to try and share my experiences every day, good or bad. We started today, but last week I tried cutting out my bad habits like Coke, Red bull and over all just eating bad!!  

We joined Anytime Fitness, and I even worked out 3 times last week! Which is awesome considering I haven't been to the gym in 7 months :(

When you join Anytime Fitness you get a trainer for one 1 hour session, which was great because she also took my measurements. I can't believe it, but I'm about to share it on my blog....Like I said total TRANSPARENCY!!

DRUM ROLL PLEASE>>>>>>>>
height 5 2"
Weight 126....now at home that day and for the past week, I've been at 128...but I'm obviously going with their weight :)
Age 42
Chest 33....which is already smaller than it used to be at 36 :( SAD SAD DAY
Waist 31"
Hips 38.5" I try telling people I have hips, but they don't believe me...maybe this will show them.
Thigh 23.5"
Calves 12.25"

Body Fat 32.9".....WHAT WHAT WHAT....so fat :(
BMI 23.1"

My goal is to lose 10 pounds.

Believe it or not, I'm even going to post my fatty pictures, but I need Jason to take them so don't get too excited yet! LOL insert evil laugh!!

I did work out 3 times last week and once with the trainer which was awesome, I could barely drive my car the next couple of days!! WHIMP!! I'm hoping for Linda Hamilton arms...yes, I just showed my age! :)

So, this morning I woke up so very tired and took my morning pills and did my carpool thing and dropped the kids off. Not going to lie, when I came home I did go back to bed for an hour. Momma needed her sleep...plus Jackson and Jason were snug in our bed all warm and I succumbed to the peer pressure!!

Anyways, when I got up I drank the yummy delicious fiber drink....I say this half kidding but I'm glad to say that now Advocare has non flavor fiber drink, which before it was citrus and I've never been able to get the entire drink down!! This time I mixed it with Grape Spark and it wasn't too bad. I think it's more of a texture thing with me...but lets just say it worked pretty fast. Sorry TMI (Transparency) :)

Had my oatmeal and went to the gym.  Was feeling kinda sluggish since I didn't have coffee but the Spark was definitely helping!!

I did the treadmill at 3.5 and after every song I increased the incline and made it to 8 incline and I was holding on for dear life!! I walked 30 minutes and burned 217 calories for 2 miles...not bad. I did my arms...using the workout the trainer did with me the week before. Hoping my arms are not jello tomorrow!!

Then I needed to go to walmart after to pick up some more healthy food...which is so much more expensive then junk!!! UGHHHHHHHHH

Anyways, got home, had lunch which was turkey breast on whole wheat tortilla and cottage cheese and a fruit...protein, fruit and complex carb :)  Had my second spark and got ready to pick the kids up. 

I feel I'm doing ok, tummy is a little upset which is to be expected, a little headache, which too is to be expected because I cut out caffeine. Thankfully I started that last week so I'm not quitting cold turkey!

I'm writing this while I'm baking chicken and drinking my water!! which I may add I must drink 64 ounces a day!!!! YEP, thats 8 classes a day!!! This may be my biggest struggle but I'm trying to keep my ADVOCARE cup filled with water and lemon when I'm not drinking spark!!

Anyways, like I said I will post my pictures of before challenge soon. I will also try and share new recipes etc through out these 24 days. 

Here is a pic of me enjoying my second Spark of the day while waiting on my kiddo's in line !!!
