My Progress So Far

I have been so busy with school that I have not updated everyone on my progress. I still work out five days a week, but due to my knee issues I am not working out as hard as I would like. At this point it is time for me to make a few adjustments in my eating habits and also increase my workout level. It has been hard blogging with no laptop and tons of papers to write, I look forward to my graduation in May it will all be worth it.
For some reason I stop losing weight I guess it’s because I am not doing as much as I use too, for now I am encouraged to keep pushing forward. I am excited about Shape Magazine’s 30day challenge, I decided to do 30 miles in 30 days. So far I am really close to reaching that goal I will keep you posted on my progress. Until then I will try to figure out what needs to be done about my weight loss, I am losing inches and I look different, none of my clothes fit but somehow the numbers are not moving. Hopefully soon we can see some progress. That is all for now!
Have a Fit and Fabulous day everyone!
New Year=New You! Happy New Year 2012
Happy New Year!
A new year equals a new you! I am super excited about this year, due to many reasons. This year I plan on accomplishing so many things such as graduating with my bachelor’s degree, running a few races, losing the remaining 80lbs, learning a new language, travel and more. I am ready for all of these adventures and I look forward to sharing them with everyone.

Today Google shared a super cute piece of art work and it was a reminder of what we always try to resolve in a new year and never get the chance to do it. I have decided that will not be me, I plan on accomplishing everything that I set out to do this year because I know that I am able to do it and I am my own motivator! Although I am inspired by others and their movements to make changes in their lives, I believe that everyone can be their own motivator. You may need a friend to help motivate you to get fit and get healthier this year but remember that it all starts with you and no one else. If you have a goal nothing can stop you from fulfilling it except for you. Please take the Google art seriously because we tend to start project and forget about them. This year should be different let us complete what we set out to accomplish and focus on what is important which is getting to a healthier you!
“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” -Eleanor Roosevelt
Let’s get Fit and Fabulous this New Year!
Happy Holidays
I wanted to wish everyone a happy and healthy Holiday! I am excited about spending time with my love ones and I hope that everyone enjoy their holiday season as well. Remember to stay well and have fun. I will see you in the New Year I look forward to sharing my new adventures with you!
Celebrity Inspiration: Marilyn Monroe
Today’s vintage pictures are of the fabulous Marilyn Monroe! She was a style icon, movie star, and she was also a fitness enthusiast! She was a runner, enjoyed lifting weights and hated routines. When it came to fitness she was open and free and just remained active and did what ever made her feel good. Fitness is fun and Marilyn made it exhilarating!

Mamavation Monday
Happy Monday! I am ready to tackle another week, let’s hope this week is better than the last. I had a great weekend enjoyed time with friends and family but it is time to get back to work. Today’s blog post is about how to get your loved ones moving. I wrote a piece about this a few weeks ago on how to help your friends and family embrace fitness and start their journey. I encourage my family to get moving and stay active by suggesting family fun activities, walking, bike riding, outdoor sports, yoga and more. It is equally important to lead by example that is the best way to get your family motivated. If they see you doing your best to lead an active lifestyle, then most likely they will too.
Check out this post on how to talk to your loved ones about getting active: http://wp.me/p1FEOb-7C
Although I have not blogged in forever I have remained very active, and I wanted to share that I lost 60lbs so far since my last Mamavation post. This is the first year that I completed a new years resolution, and I am happy to say that I look forward to losing the remaining 80lbs. I have decided to finish out my year trying to get out of the 200s, I hope to lose another 24lbs before the year is over. I look forward to reaching this goal within the next few weeks and if it doesn’t happen I am just happy that I tried. I hope everyone is having a great holiday season and remember take it one active day at a time.

Mamavation Monday: Ready for the Holidays!

I love the holidays, Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays not just because of the food but because our families are together. This week I plan on utilizing my extra days off to spend time with the family and work out. I wanted to run the Turkey Trot but since it is too far of a drive, I have decided to run 4-5 miles Thursday morning. I am super excited this year we are having a cleaner thanksgiving, vegetable, fruits, and other goodies. I am also working on revising recipes to make them lighter so we can enjoy the foods we love without feeling guilty. I look forward to watching all of the holiday specials and putting up my Christmas tree this weekend.
How to fight off that extra weight during the holidays?
I plan on staying active and eating healthy this holiday just as I am doing now to avoid the extra weight gain. I believe in moderation and balance if there is a recipe that I cannot make cleaner then I will just eat less. I love trying new things so hopefully I can try healthier holiday recipes and see how it goes.
This week’s workout
Monday- Run 2 miles/ Play time with Baby girl
Tuesday- Elliptical/ strength training
Wednesday- yoga/ Play time with Baby girl
Thursday- Run 4-5miles
Friday-Off
I hope everyone have a Fit and Fabulous week!
