Day 18, 19, & 20



So I'm playing catch up! Sorry y'all I have been extremely busy. I totally admire stay at home mom's that blog, as well as, mom's that work period. It is so difficult to find time just for myself that I can just sit and type. My little guy is starting to not take as many naps so its hard to even clean my house, let alone catch up on some sleep. This is a very difficult task these days so bare with me as I get a hold of my own life.

So day 18 was Monday. I worked that day and I didn't have personal training because there was construction going on so we weren't able to meet up. I wanted to work out on my own but I didn't find the motivation to do so. My meals were good. I had cereal, chicken and veggies, and then I had a little bit of African food. African food is really oily and fattening so I only had maybe a cup of rice and then the sauce I had was made with okra so it had some nutrients.

Day 19 was Tuesday. I worked that day as well and I had personal training at 6:30am. Well, she kicked my butt again. most of the exercises were with balance and I sure don't have none. They were very difficult. As for food, I had a banana in the morning. I was able to bring chicken and veggies with avocado to work, and then, I was finally able to make pizza with cauliflower crust and it was so good! I made it with chicken, pesto, mozzarella, and tomatoes. I got the recipe off of Pinterest so go check it out. Click here.

Day 20 was today, Wednesday. I am off on Wednesdays so I had the little guy. As I said before, he is starting to stay up longer. So when he sleeps I try to get all my house work done. I even forgot to eat breakfast this morning because I had everything else on my brain. For lunch I just had avocado and salsa and it was yummy. I snacked on a tangerine. I tried to remember the water which was tough though. I did cheat and have one scoop of ice cream which I know I will have to pay for that. Tonight's dinner, however, was the best meal I have cooked in a long time. I made healthy tacos. I got the idea from Pinterest again, but I made it kind of my own. I put turkey meat with seasoning and bell peppers on it. I put a little of rice with beans in it (which I purchased on accident) and topped it with lime juice, avocado, and salsa. I even put a little feta for fun. It was so delicious. I want to eat it every night. Click here to get the recipe from Pinterest. I didn't exercise today either. I need motivation at home! Any suggestions????

Day 16

                           


Yesterday was Day 16. I Weighed myself and I have lost weight and inches so I am very excited. Compared to Day 1, I was 192.4 lbs and my measurements were: waist 45", hips 45", bust 44", arms 13", and thighs 24.5". Now today (as you can see above) I am down 3.5" in my waist, 2" in my hips, and .5" in my bust. However, I gained inches in my legs and arms, but I assume its because I am lifting during my personal training so I am gaining muscle. I am very happy with my 2 week results and I can't wait to see what the next 2 weeks will bring. 

Breakfast at work was an Herbalife shake. Then we were really busy at work and I had a late lunch but I went to the Kabob Grill and had a chicken kabob with rice and a salad. For Dinner I had gotten a pre-made chicken for $5 and put shredded pieces on a salad with avocado with a little of Italian dressing. I feel that my eating is doing well and I am seeing results I wanted. Maybe this is going to be easier than I thought. 

As for my exercise, I found time in the morning to go walking to the park with my family for 30 minutes before work. I also got to wear my new workout shirts I found at Ross. I didn't have any workout shirts and these shirts are also motivation for me! I am ready for the next 2 weeks. Bring on the hard workouts and meal prep because this mama is on a roll. Until tomorrow Ladies and Gentlemen.
