make-your-belly-fat-cry:

C’mon now don’t flip.

Your weight can fluctuate up or down a few pounds a day. Only weigh yourself once a week if you don’t want to see the scale move daily, or if you weigh yourself daily, make sure you’re drinking more than enough water and sticking to your diet.
We all want to weigh ourselves after that horrible meal we ate the night before just to see how much weight we may have gained. Don’t be tempted! Most of the “weight” on the scale is water weight. If you ate a meal high in sodium, your body will be holding on to more water and therefore the scale will give you a higher number than the day before. Have no fear! Drink more water than you did the day before, get back to your good eating habits, and you’ll release the water your body was retaining due to higher salt intake. :)

Food Log:

I don’t recommend doing what I did today, but sometimes you eat what you have or what’s convenient.

Breakfast/Pre-Workout: Protein bar w/20 grams of protein

Lunch/Post-Workout: Protein smoothie: 1 scoop chocolate whey protein (25 grams of protein), coconut/almond milk, frozen berries (I always eye-ball the milk and berries)

After 4 hours of Teaching Swim/Dinner: Half of a Jimmy John’s Beach Club sandwich on wheat bread

Later Snack: 2nd half of sandwich

Dessert: 2 light chocolate chip cookies

Water: At least 18 cups

Here’s my workout from this morning! From bodybuilding.com: “After warming up, do one set of each exercise with little to no rest to complete a circuit, then repeat the circuit until you have finished all your sets. Be sure to rest 1-2 minutes between your circuits for optimal recovery.” 

I can still feel heat throughout my body from this workout and I did it almost 11 hours ago! High-res

This is one of the reasons I don’t post photos of other women (fit women in ads or what not) on my blog. I don’t want to compare myself to other women. I see them on my dash and that is enough for me.

I love to do these workouts and really like to make up my own combinations. I made this sheet for anyone who wants to try but also for myself. I have a little note book with them so here’s just a few. remember go at your own pace but push yourself. Even if its just one more than you want to.
I have a gymboss interval timer but you can also get an interval timer app but i’m sure you could also find one on the computer if need be.
If you’re unsure about anything please send me a message.
heres some of the moves if you’re unsure of how to do them.
Plank Tuck Jumps
Plank Knee to Elbow
Side Plank Knee to Elbow
Plank Jacks
T-Push Ups with weights
Push Up And Row
Bicycle Crunches
Weighted Swings #3
Russian Twist
Curtsy Lunge 
Oblique V Ups
Supermans except without the stability ball
Burpee + Tuck Jump
Dead Lift
Elevated plank
Squat and Press
Squat or Lunge and Kick 
Mt. Climbers
Tricep Dips
In and Out Abs: Staring in a V extend legs out and In.
Spider knee: Bringing one leg to your chest then rotating it out to the side and back to plank. Alternate 
3 Point Jump Is jumping to the side, the middle then the other side.
Side Burpee: Regular burpee but instead of jumping to a plank you jump to a side plank. Make sure you place your hands evenly on the ground before you jump and go at your own pace.

Seriously, they’re free! And they’re not just for bodybuilders! They have workout schedules, tips, FREE online help from trainers, meal plans, and success stories! It’s all free.  I started a workout today that was totally doable.

It’s customizable too: they show you exercise plans for your sex, goal, and age.  CHECK. IT. OUT.  

**Note: I am currently not following the meal plan, but I’m eating as clean and as healthy as I can. Everything in moderation. I do hope to get on the meal plan when I get more money and actually make it to the store. ;)**
