Now:

I have started running 3 times a week as well as doing P90X. I am on a plateau right now. I am going up and down between 165 and 167. So I am going to start tweeking my food intake. I started drinking Shakeology in the morning. I also got the P90X Recovery Drink today so we shall see what happens in this next phase. Wish me luck!

Week 3 of P90X

I am starting Week #3! I am so happy I started this workout program. So far I feel like I have lost inches. Weight is staying about the same. I have now started Shakeology and replacing a meal with it. I have also started training for the half marathon I will be doing in September. I figure I should be ready by then right?? I will be doing my measurements to see how much I have lost in inches and update you next week with pictures and measurement changes. 

I am also looking for anyone who is focused on fitness and weight loss to join me in my business. Anyone who loves to help others. You don't have to be skinny and fit. You just have to be focused on your fitness goals, helping others reach their fitness goals, and want to make extra money with some AMAZING products! Message me for details! 

Week 2 of P90X

So it is now Week 2 of P90X. Here are some pictures of my progress:

I think there is some progress :) I still have ALOT of work to do but I got this!! I was recently in the YMCA's Downtown Weighs in and came in 10th place losing 10.4 pounds! Not bad considering I don't have alot to lose right? Anyway I had to stop P90X for a few days because of the sickness that is everywhere, but I am back to it and loving it! I really enjoy P90X and think the workouts are amazing!

P90X = Amazing Workouts!!

I have finished my first week of P90X. I had to stop in the middle because a sickness took over our household. Yes the dreaded flu hit all of us! I am over it and back in the game. I missed it after 3 days of being sick. These workouts are fun! They are so motivational too! Tony really makes you feel like you can do it. There is alot on there that I am not very good at, but I am hoping that I will get better at it. Tonight I did Kenpo X and this workout is amazing! I was having fun and sweating by the time I was done! Time just flew by. I was sad to see it end. So far since I started this I have lost 2 lbs. Which isn't bad because I don't have that much weight to lose. I want to tone my stomach up so I am mainly concentrating on that right now. I want that bikini this summer! 
I am still looking for people who want to focus on their fitness goals. I want to help you do something amazing for yourself. I know I feel so good about what I did so why not you? 
The next thing I am going to start is Shakeology. These shakes are so good for the body! They have vitamins and minerals and help build the immune system along with tons of protein!! They are supplement shakes that I will use either for breakfast or an after workout drink. Im so excited to try these and see if they help me lean up faster.

This is me right now. Starting P90X this week! I am on Day 3 and it has so far been challenging and yet doable. I love to feel challenged in my workouts. If I feel sore and tired afterward, then I am doing a good thing! I will be updating my picture as I go through this 90 day process. I am also dedicating myself to logging all my food everyday. I am doing a challenge group on facebook as well so I am helping others through coaching them with health and fitness techniques that I have learned in this 3 year journey. If you want to join my challenge, there is still time! http://beachbodycoach.com/esuite/home/fitpersonified go to my website and pick your workout. Then go to my facebook page:  http://www.facebook.com/Fitpersonified and let me know you want to join and make a better you this year. I am so dedicated to this. I WANT to love myself and be the type of person I always wanted to be. I have already lost a whole person in weight so now it the time to clean it up! Hopefully after this 90 days I will have a bikini body! *fingers crossed*

After Christmas Jumpstart

Christmas is over and I know I did NOT adhere to any good eating. I actually even had McDonald's. I had pie and candy and cookies and etc, etc... You know what I wanted after all that? HEALTHY FOOD. I actually craved it! I didn't feel good after it. My face is breaking out and my stomach is just giving me hell for it! OMG! Yuck! I feel terrible about it and I am not going back there. I am stopping this now. I have a challenge starting on January 2nd and I plan to rise to that challenge. I am actually going to start now. I don't want to wait the next few days. I just hope that the people that said they were interested, want to do this with me. I want to help others do this too. It's something I am passionate about and want to make others feel that passionate about themselves. Sure I am working with Beachbody and want them to purchase a video or use Shakeology, but who doesn't invest in those types of things to get fit? You have to have the tools to help you get the results you want right? If someone is serious about helping themselves become a happier person then they will stop at nothing to do so. I am scraping by paycheck to paycheck but I still reach down here and there to invest in these tools for myself too. Even if I can't get anyone to do the challenge, I will still challenge myself and keep trying to recruit others. I know there is alot of people I don't know yet, but I will find them and maybe someday somebody will let me help them right? 

Contemplations

So I have been in a very stressful place lately. I have been struggling with money and wondering how we are going to make it most days. Which led me to Beachbody and becoming a coach to hopefully make extra money one of these days. It hasn't happened yet but I am optimistic. I know I can help people and these products are great! I have also had "friends" who have shown me that maybe I should not be their friend. I am not going into the details because I would be here for days, but they have pushed me to the point of not tolerating their crap anymore. It's a horrible thing to know that these people that you thought were trustworthy, but turn out not to be. I am not saying I am a perfect friend either, but I try my best. Plus besides myself, I have children. These girls are my life and they deserve to have only the best of me and my friends and family. If I am bringing sketchy people around, how is that healthy for them? I have been known to be a forgiving person. Most of the time I will forgive and forget. I do this way too much. I had a friend that I was friends with for years on and off because she was not a good friend. I have finally written her off for good. I have done this with a few others as well. Now I feel like I am a heartless person for it but I just can't stand to put up with b.s. anymore. I don't want to have to worry about whether I can trust somebody or what that person is doing or saying behind my back. It's drama that I don't need. I don't have time! One particular person just keeps coming back. I have blocked them on a few networks but they find a way to find me, add me, and then send me messages. Why?? According to them I was not a good friend to them. I was given a laundry list of things that made me a horrible friend. So why is this person basically stalking me on social networks? I have no idea. So I decided:  fine, I will let them in again. I feel like I should give them a chance since they are trying so hard to be my friend. Am I wrong? Will I regret this? Who knows right? I guess I will never know until it happens. So what is my point in this blog? My point is:  people are usually good people, but you have to look for them. Everyone is so focused on the tragedies and the stresses that they lose sight on the good things. I am trying to see that more now. I am often focused on the opposite. I worry SO much! I was recently shown that I work with amazing people. These people have given me so much love since I started last March. They knew I was struggling with things right now. A few people have given my daughters amazing gifts and just let me unload my stresses on them. I am very grateful that I have them in my life. These are the types of people I need around me. I don't need or deserve less than that. I will step off my soap box now. Have a lovely day/evening (depending on when you read this LoL)!
