Day 21: So Off The Wagon That It's Another Day 1

So sadly, I have not been very good at this challenge. I've been eating poorly and not enough and I don't exercise outside of work (I'm a server and I walking around my restaurant during a shift is at least five miles, but I'm not counting that as exercise; that's work). So today is another day 1. My friends want to go to Vegas for the new year so I might as well use that as a goal deadline. I've lost motivation for all things lately and I need to find my way back. So maybe in an attempt to do so, here's more assignments from my little challenge group that may make me feel more motivated.

16th: What do you do that makes you feel like a rock star/badass?
I think the thing that makes me feel most like a bad ass is a great leg day and a kickboxing session. There's something about the two that makes me feel great. I wish an upper body day did it but sadly it doesn't. I think it's cause I don't feel anything in my upper body when I do them short of throwing punches at a heavy bag.

20th: Tell yourself 3 reasons you can succeed
1. I can do it when I'm focused
2. I like myself better when I'm healthy
3. I CAN DO IT WHEN I'M FOCUSED & CONSCIOUS OF MYSELF

 21st: Favorite workout song
I love most of Britney Spear's fast songs and remixed ones. Lately, I've been loving Shots & Squats. I feel like I need to go back and live that life lol.

27th: How do you reward yourself?
How do I reward myself? It should be with a manicure or new workout clothes. It reminds me I'm going in the right direction when I get to wear different, smaller clothes.

 28th: Tips you’ve picked up along the way? 
I don't know if they're tips, but they're things that work for me. I like to eat through my day a lot through out my day to keep me fueled lol. And I know things in moderation will work. I don't do diets, I just try to not eat like crap and make better health choices. I know I should go back to portion control and "diet" meal prep to get back into the swing of things.

Anyways, I need to get onto my business as well. I'm trying to not get discouraged, but it's hard when your own friends and family don't buy or help you spread the word. Oh, well. I must try to get motivated and get on top of that. I need more videos and to get out there and to invest in more makeup (which is not a bad thing; I love makeup lol) to better my excitement for the products. We'll see how this goes. I wanted November to be my re-launch month.

Back Again

Hello again! It's been a while since I've been on here. Mainly because of life's ups and downs. I've been feeling really low about myself and decided I needed to change. Hopefully it takes, or more like hopefully I'm ready to sustain change. What's changed for me? I'm at a professional part in my life where I've been feeling stagnant and want more or change or both. And personally, I got to the point where I got too comfortable and just stopped focusing on my health goals/gains cause my partner was okay with me the way I was/am. Which, I know, is super awesome and fortunate but I didn't like the run down and weighed down feeling I had when literally and figuratively. So, for the last few months, I've been doing a dietbet, which I'm not great at. I feel like I always get close to my goal but never get there, which would've made me feel down in the past. But now, I just take it and move onto the next month and hope I make it then. Alo...

BEASTing Out

Well, I finally did it. I took the plunge into Body Beast. I like to lift so I thought this would be fun. And I'm sure it is fun if I didn't feel like puking during the workout. It's been a while since I've had this happen. I thought I gave myself enough time in between dinner and my workout. Maybe not? Or was I just working out that hard? I didn't feel like I did. It was a Build: Chest/Tri's day so I used light weights for like all my sets since I tweaked my left shoulder and didn't want to train one side heavy than the other cause I'd like some symmetry. Either way, I'm gonna keep on. Tomorrow is Legs and I do love a leg day, even if I hate it the next two days after. I'm still doing the Les Mills classes and videos. I did Body Pump this week. I should've taken that class as a sign to go easy on my shoulder now that I think about. I'll probably do some Combat or Sh'bam again for some cardio to go along with my Body Beast program. ...

Derailed In December And Still Off The Rails

So in December, I had every intention of being better, but it hasn't been going exactly as planned. It's actually been kinda bad. I've been a bit derailed. Maybe it was the holidays. Maybe it’s because I’ve been a little bit down and depressed. Maybe it was the weather of the season. Maybe it was and is all the working I've been doing. Actually, now that I think about it, it's all of the above on top and being in school this semester that’s in my way. My workouts have been sporadic. Work has me drained more than usual. And being anemic and having poor nutrition as of late hasn't helped either. I don’t sleep as much because I work too much. One job has me up at 3 a.m. And the other job, when I work, has me up till like 11 p.m. If I schedule my workouts before work, then I’ll be up at like 2 a.m. I need to find a balance and change. So to kind of start to change off things, I took on a trainer. It was going alright I suppose until like last month. I starte...
