Getting Stronger Each Day!

The past few weeks I have been going strong on eating clean and working out. Only this time while meal prepping I have been focusing more on portion control rather than just calories. My meals mainly consist of less carbs and more protein/greens. The main thing I use in order to prep meals is the 21 Day Fix containers from Beachbody. I have been eating roughly 1,200 calories a day but have not been depriving myself of food that I crave because I know I will not be successful if I were to do so. Saying that I have completely cut soda out of my daily intake all together. In doing all of this I can a feel a major difference in my body. My belly fat is already beginning to go away, my fat on my legs are beginning to shrink and the amount of food I am able to eat before I get full has decreased drastically.
My workouts have consisted of both low intensity and some higher intensity. On low intensity days I usually take walks or ride the stationary bike. My higher intensity workouts include HITT workouts, running, 21 day Fix workouts and more. I also feel improvement in my body physically. I can do more sets and I am getting stronger each day. An HITT workout I really enjoy to do a lot is:
10 air squats
10 lunges on each leg
5 bur pees
45 second wall sit and
20 seconds of sprints
Set an alarm for 15 minutes and do as many as you can.
Supplements I have been using is Evolution Nutrition CLA supplement with each meal and Purely Inspired Organic Protein .

I am super excited I am advancing at my weight loss program and I plan to keep everyone updated!

Broccoli and Cheese Patties Recipe

Image
       I have been seeing different broccoli and cheese recipes all over Pinterest but never have I found a healthy substitute for my broccoli and cheese casserole I love so much. Finally I took it upon myself to put my favorite veggie in a quick, easy and healthy recipe. I have calculated and all of this recipe would be around 300 calories. Also it  feeds my cravings for the calorie filled casserole.       Ingredients include:  1 Broccoli Florets cooked (I prefer steam bags for mine)  1/4 cup flour ( I use wheat flour but I have also used all purpose and it both works great and tastes great) 1 large egg  1/4-1/2 cup of shredded cheese of choice. Olive Oil       How To: 1. Cook your broccoli and put into blender. Also add 1 large egg and blend until broccoli and egg is blended well. 2. Add broccoli and  egg blend to bowl. 3. Add cheese and flour to the egg and broccoli mix. Hand mix until i...

Back at it again.

Today I am starting back up this blog. This was one of the hardest things to do for myself since I have gained back my weight. I have decided to do this to share with everyone that not everyone is perfect, sometimes you hit a bump in the road but you can bounce back. I am determined to lose weight once again and become the person I want to be. I have recently started my diet once again beginning January first and I have already lost 8 pounds to start off. I want to do this for myself, my future husband and everyone I love. I feel I will be much happier this way and I will have my followers, family and friends to support me!  Something I did want to blog about in my first post is how I have come about losing my weight so far. I recently have started doing 1-2 Herbalife shakes a day and eating about 1200 calories daily. This includes my snacks, shakes, and meals. The Herbalife teas and shakes have really helped me stay on track during the school and work week. So today I joined Herb...

Time for beach body

Image
This year I have worked hard to maintain my fitness and keep my weight off. The past 2 weeks I have began to start to lose weight again. Summer is right around the corner and its time to push my body to new limits and get the beach body I deserve. I refuse to be the girl in her t shirt and basketball shorts this year. I have began picking up on extra cardio and ab routines. Along with a diet that will help me shred the last bit of tummy fat.  I started extra workouts targeting my mid section and lower body the past two weeks. I can already see changes in my stomach and how much better it is beginning to look. I will soon be posting my ab workout and how I got results the way I did.  The first picture at the top is from a month ago and the second picture is 2 weeks in. My current picture is the bottom and I am beginning to show some progress. I am excited to begin this and start being the healthy confident girl in a bikini!
