Getting on the Right Track

What an AWESOME week!  I’ve been very excited about  starting this journey and have already learned a  lot.  I  love Alysa’s  food plan. It’s so easy to use and to follow- and it’s not stressful at all putting meals together.   Mark’s exercises are kinda killing me, but I’m modifying when I need to and  just getting it DONE  There is SO much support around that I really do feel like there is someone on every corner cheering for me.  The biggest difference?   These are all things I know I can do every day. Changing my life, instead of just my schedule for the next 7 weeks!

 

 

Guess what??  I’ve lost 8.8 pounds since applying to be a Mamavation Mom!   WHOO-HOO!

Wanna SEE how my week went?

 

I’ve started watching Pete Cohen’s program. I’ve not been able to give it the attention that it deserves , so  am going to make it more of a priority when I get back from NYC and Fitblog!   I am meeting Shelley, Ghada, Sherry and maybe a few other sistas at a Fitness Magazine Blogging event.   I am super excited about it, and as Leah said, I know I’ll stay on track because it’s all about health and fitness! :)

 

I’m sending a SPECIAL SHOUT-OUT  to the  wonderful sponsor that we have: Omron Fitness, New Balance,  Earth Shoes,  Weight Loss Guru, InspiredRd and of course, Mamavation, and the INCREDIBLE  mentors that Hanan and I have- Lolo, Laura, and Andrea.   I’m so thankful for you guys!

Ready to Get Started!

Do you remember those moments on Christmas Morning when you where still in bed, but not yet up? When everything was magical and special and  you knew you had  SO much to look forward to? That was me this morning!  I just know I have so much to look forward to!

Being a Mamavation Mom means so much to me.  I’ve been in a bit of a rut- there’s been a lot going on with my family and I’ve been devoting myself to them and letting myself go. I lost some of my motivation. This is sure to  jump start my mojo!   I am also so excited to be getting nutritional help.  That is one thing I REALLY need help with.  I’m excited about Peter Cohen’s course as well. There is a lot about losing weight that goes beyond losing weight- I’m guessing you have to lose baggage, as well.

I took some photos this morning to  be able to compare with in 7 weeks. I just KNOW I’m going to be thrilled with the results!

I’m NOT happy at all with those numbers. But I know they are going to change SO much in the next 7 weeks. I’m really thrilled  to get started and prove to myself I have what it take to make a real difference. This is one of the most exciting, thrilling, scariest, things to happen to me. I can’t wait to show you all I have what it takes!
