January Challenge

Goal totally NOT reached. I wanted to be down in the dumps about it but why dwell on it, why be negative towards myself with all the effort I did put in?  My goal was to reach 9,600 squats/sit ups.
I do not like sit ups at all ( I have to find another workout to target my lower abs) The squats I really enjoyed got a real excitement on how many I could actually do a day. The most I did in one day was 470 (actually one morning). I reached a total combined of 4,757. This is the first challenge I have stayed committed to EVER. So here's to me for the consistency I did keep. You go girl!


P.S. Learn to be your own cheerleader!!!

Challenge 2019

My coworker talked me in to joining basically a "challenge group". Each month they take a full 30 days and a certain amount of whichever exercise.  This lovely month of January is 100 air squats and 100 sit-ups.  Whew!  How is this out of shape body going to do this every single day?  Want to know how? But sucking it up and getting to it. I have not felt like it  the last few days I mean I have been in the bed ready to go to sleep and  forced myself to get up and get to it.  Telling myself You've got this!  And your damn right I do.  I started on Day 5 and I am now in on 717 sit ups and 895 air squats. My goal is to reach 9,600 in total by 1.31.2019. That's a pretty large number to me any way, but I am determined to get it. 👑

YOGA

 Whew! I am on Day 2 and I am finding out just how inflexible I truly am. I keep thinking to myself ok sis lose a few pounds and you'll be able to comfortably do these beginner poses. Either way I am sticking to it. I have felt for some time that I need to stretch my body out. Yoga is helping with that...I felt some areas stretching today that I have never. I look forward to achieving my Yoga goals!!!  So far I have found on Youtube.com Arianna Elizabeth  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6HhF-dMOqwA8m_ZspeA9kQ She so soft spoken and the yoga sessions are beginner friendly which I enjoy and I know my body does too! 

I love learning new things!

I truly do! Apple Cider Vinegar - need I say more? The benefits are endless. ACV contains enzymes, proteins, antioxidants, and good bacteria. The taste itself isn't satisfying, but the benefits out weigh that for me. I will begin drinking in some form before bed to help with losing weight it helps decrease your daily calories intake, releases enzymes that promote fat burning, lowers blood sugar levels, helps gastrointestinal problems the list goes on. Drink ingredients ACV - 2 tsps Lemon Juice - 2 tbsp Raw Honey - 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon - 1 tsp Water - 1 cup (hot water) Planning to do a "results" check in two weeks! Before and After photos will be posted. 👑
