21 Day Fix Lower Fix

I tried my hardest to last through each and every exercise!  When it came to the lifts and stuff at the end it became a lot harder, but I squatted my butt off!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My legs are still jello!!!! So I asked around if I should be eating all my containers because I'm eating about half and I'm full, and it has something to do with macros, eat all your containers and see better results.  Well, okay then, next weeks grocery list will include double what I had been eating, could be interesting!!!!!!!

Had my morning shake like always

This lunch I'll have a pita wrap with lots of veggies and some cheese and chicken

Snack - orange & sunflower seeds

Supper - chicken/veggies/quinoa

Snack - chocolate shakeology protein bar, NOM!

I've been able to chew a lot more lately, mostly because I had been doing 2 shakes a day, but I have to get out of that habit, my jaw is going to hate me but my body should love me!  244 today weigh in day, going down slowly but I notice a difference just in my body maybe I'm building more muscle, my legs don't jiggle as much and my arms are getting stronger, and my core still needs work, but it takes longer for those muscles to burn out so I'll take that as progress!

On to another day.....

[ashezlynn12]

Upper Fix

I havent been seeing the results I want with the two a days, so I'm going back to one a day to see what happens, and trying to eat all my containers, which is super super hard!

This morning's workout was Upper Fix which was pretty sweet as usual.  I have started doing a few of the push ups and the plank on my toes instead of just my knees, so I know I'm getting stronger!

Had shakeology for breakfast like usual, YUM!

Protein shake for lunch

Supper is likely chicken, rice/quinoa and veggies all coated in hot sauce!

Another day another workout, though if I don't get the workout in I get cranky so I guess it's a good thing!

[ashezlynn12]

Weekend Roundup

Well the usual weekend, though I did work out all days, my body still hurts from the Dirty 30 I did on Saturday, Sunday's yoga was probably the best thing in the whole wide worldddddddddddd it felt so darn good!! I still woke up today and did my Lower HIIT 20 and 5 minutes of 10 min abs, holy crap do they ever work your abs, I barely made it through 5 minutes IDK if ill ever hit the 10 mins!  

Mothers day was pizza day, though I had none! I had an egg salad sandwich and some mushrooms dipped in a little bit of ranch dressing.  It was soo goodddddd.

Weighing in on Wednesdays from now on, feel like I can shake the weekend off by Wednesday and feel good about it.  

Food is usual - shake, shake, pita ..........I'm stuck with this combo until grocery day on Sunday unless I can find time to do it sometime another day, but I have enough chicken/wraps to keep me going until the weekend where I will stay with the bf and he can feed me!

Can't wait for this week's progress, can't wait.

21 Day Fix Cardio Fix & TurboFire Fire Starter

Weeee, another day down!  So I weighed myself again (going to start once a week come Monday) and I'm back down to 244, one pound off from where I was before I went a little crazy with the carbs.  

Last night I had the most amazing wrap

It tasted so darn good, just Lettuce/Tomato (2 green), Chicken (1 Red), tortilla (1 yellow) and cheese (1 blue) you'd be surprised how much cheese you get... oh, and covered in hot sauce like always.

Today's workout was great, I noticed the more "in shape" I get the less calories I burn in a workout because my heart rate doesn't go up as much, today's Fire Starter I burned just 375 calories compared to last time at 440.  Guess that's a good thing, I should push myself more!

Today's breakfast was shakeology like always.

No snack today as I go to the orthodontist and I won't have the time to really clean my teeth before then so I won't be having that

Lunch is another shake -it's working for me, slim fast french vanilla, caramel flavouring, some natural peanut butter, a wee bit of cinnamon, almond milk, and today I'm doing a bit of rolled oats in it too to make it a bit thicker.  It's actually surprisingly yummy!

 Snack - orange/sunflower seeds

 Doing cardio fix .......now that I can see myself burning a lot for, and it's set out so awesome with the minute workouts and quick breaks, can't wait!

 Supper - wrap with chicken, lettuce, mushrooms, hot sauce, cheese and some green beans

 Snack - cottage cheese & orange (have I mentioned lately I'm orange obsessed, YUM)

[ashezlynn12]

TurboFire Lower HIIT 20 & 21 Day Fix Pilates Fix

Now I have been on the fix program officially (no cheats) for 4 days, lost another pound, I have decided to weigh myself once a week instead of everyday so I don't get too discouraged with the weight loss not happening as fast as I want.  I feel that's a little bit obsessive of me and I have to get into better habits, so Monday is now weigh in day!  

Low HIIT 20 was pretty good, damn that hurts the legs!!!!!!!!! and since yesterday was Fix leg day my legs are on fire and somewhat jello today!  But that's okay, I miss the burn, obviously I can push myself harder if my entire body isn't sore after a workout anymore like it had been the first week of working out.  Granted you get better and you get stronger and there is less of a painful end to it, but I crave it, I need it!  I will push tonight beyond my limits.

Breakfast was shake like usual

Snack - orange & 1/2 sunflower

Lunch - another shake, trying out something different ..and since chewing is still painful I need a break

Snack - 1/2 sunflower & cottage cheese - I have an oral surgeon appointment after this, I feel I shouldn't eat anything at all but I will try!

Supper - chicken tacos!  Well, one taco, 3 veggie servings 1 carb 1 protein & 1 cheese ..so good so good I can't wait, and also covering it in hot sauce, I put hot sauce on everything! everythinggggggg

Snack - unsure, probably another orange

Pilates Fix will be great, stretching out those muscles and working entire body.  I did it once before (I"ve been "kind of" following the plan for over a week but due to cold and then last weekends badness I'm counting Monday as my official start date again, and working from there.  Tomorrow is cardio? UH OH

No photos today, I was pretty lazy this morning (well as lazy as I can be after working out)

[ashezlynn12]

TurboFire Rest & 21 Day Fix Lower Fix

Man that lower fix kills me every time!!!!! I drip sweat by the time I'm finished.  My legs are lookin fine though!

So today's workout was great, weight was not 247.1, but guess what time it is, AGAIN, ffs.  Next week will have a weight change, this week likely will stay the same.  I won't give in to my cravings either my body can damn well stuff it!

I'm feeling stronger and better overall though, even without a weight change, my body obviously likes what it's getting and how much I'm working out.  Can't wait for tomorrow!!!!!!!

Today - same food as yesterday - yes, I'm boring but I am a creature of habit.

Bring it ON!

[ashezlynn12]

TurboFire Fire 40 & 21 Day Fix Upper Fix

Another day, another workout.  I'm still at 245.6 after my weekend of naughty, but I'm OK with that, I deserved those extra pounds to come back, that taught me never to cheat, or at least just have 1 item/week instead of 3 in one weekend.

Today's morning workout was TurboFire Fire 40, It's getting pretty repetitive, but it does burn the calories off, I burned 420 in 40 minutes, I say that's pretty darn good.  I had my shakeology right after like I always do.  

This morning's snack is an orange if I get hungry, I've decided to only eat when I get hungrier instead of eating 24/7 it was just getting too much for me to try to stuff in all my food.

Lunch & Supper are same as yesterday, and afternoon snack is sunflower seeds.

I'll be doing 21 Day Fix Upper Fix after work ..I always save her workouts for evening since they're 30 mins no question, TurboFire can go up to 55 minutes and I don't have time to do that in the evenings!

Evening snack is cottage cheese and grapes!

I can't wait to start seeing more of the weight come off, the goals really make me want to push harder!

[ashezlynn12]

Weekend Roundup

I'm just going to say I was bad, no workouts, no eating right, I regret that so much right now so much.  

Back on track today, started with TurboFire HIIT 20 ... I love Turbofire, love love love love love.........after  a weekend of lazy and cheese it really hit the spot!

Started breakfast with a shakeology, with cinnamon and vanilla and almond milk

Snack will be a 1/2 orange of sunflower seeds

Lunch will be a pita pizza, with chicken/turkey (1 red) tomato sauce (1 purple) and 1 container of mixed veggies (green) and 1 container of shredded cheese (1 blue)

Snack will be other 1/2 sunflower seeds

Supper will be tuna on rice with hot sauce and 2 servings of veggies!

Snack will be grapes and cottage cheese (1 red 1 purple)

Totals - 1 Orange, 1 Blue, 4 Red, 2 Purple, 3 Green (I stepped it down one level to see better results, not sure if it will work though I'll have to update on that next Monday.

Before supper I'll be doing 21 Day Fix total body cardio, starting everything from Monday on and keeping on better track of myself, no cheat days (every other Saturday ice cream instead of every saturday) and one cheat meal/month (not 2 ...or 4 if you count portion size...like I did this weekend) so only date nights!

I made up a calendar for 365 days to cross off and I made a chart of the 244-145 lbs I want to lose to cross off as well!  It's fun to visualize .

I also made my "reward" system

225 lbs - New Dress/Shoes

200 lbs - Start Insanity Max 30 and get myself some Sigma brushes!!

175 lbs - New Tattoo

150 lbs - Another new dress/shoes (the expensive ones!!!!!!!)

145 lbs - Skydiving!!!!!!! plus my 2nd tattoo and some sexy lingere for the bf

This is also going to keep me so motivated,  I really want those tattoos.

Sick Day

Barely got my butt out of bed this morning, this cold is kicking it pretty good, did not do my workout, after yesterday's nearly pass out I figure why push it today when I cant breathe the minute I wake up... will see how day goes and hopefully get to it this evening after work.  I'm just so upset over it!!!!!

But still eating clean 

Breakfast-Chocolate shakeology

Snack - Orange & sunflower seeds

Lunch - eggs/toast/asparagus

Snack - grapes & sunflower seeds

Supper - Chicken/japanese blend veggies & brown rice

IDK about an evening snack yet ............last night I had my afternoon snack for my evening snack ...was "in the zone" before I went to bed so that feels good, and on a bright note I weighed 245.4 today ! YAY

[ashezlynn12]

Weekend Summary

Well another weekend come and gone, and guess what... I got a cold, I could not breathe for most of Saturday/Sunday .. I still worked out on Saturday morning but yesterday I just didnt want to get out of bed, even called in sick to work.  I still ate healthy like always just no exercise - I gained back a pound ish I weigh 246.7 .. but that could be due to illness and not doing anything, it's not like I ate bad or anything.  T

Now this morning I did Dirty 30 - I nearly passed out toward the end, I think, again, it's because I was not feeling well and it took a lot out of me, I powered through I did not do the last round set of exercise 4 but I did all the rest and no slacking off either! I can't wait to see weight changes again, I get so excited, maybe by the end of the week I'll see another change!  I know losing 2lbs a week is fine and normal and I shouldnt expect to drop a pound everyday... goals too high!! 

   Breakfast - Chocolate shakeology like always

Snack - orange & sunflower seeds

Lunch - 2 eggs over a piece of toast with some cheese, veggies (today is cauliflower/broccoli combo) 

 Snack - grapes & sunflower seeds

Supper - no idea yet, hopefully something good, likely chicken and zucchini and some rice, the usual.. I don't like to stray much

Snack - cottage cheese & canteloupe 

I have to grocery shop tonight - I notice the fruit goes so fast !!!! and veggies, so many veggies.....probably ate more veggies in the last week than the last 10 years put together, same goes with the fruit.

Happy monday!!!!!!!

[ashezlynn12]

21 Day Fix - Day 2 & 3

Day 2 - Upper Fix

Damn I need heavier weights, it was still a challenge but I think I could have done better....The workout was awesome though love the 1 min on 20 seconds off ..... it seems like you can fully manage to do it!!!!!!  Granted I had to take breaks - pushups and planks are not my friend yet, but that will only improve!

I also did TurboFire Fire 30 and Stretch 10 - have I mentioned how much I love love love TurboFire?!!?  i always feel so awesome after her constant moving workouts, sweat like mad but damn so worth it! 

No weight change the past few days still 246.5...........

Breakfast - Chocolate Shakeology with the same ingredients ...damn this is my favourite meal of the day honest to goodness if I could I'd have shakes for every meal, I end up craving this one by the end of the day!

Snack - Grapes & Sunflower seeds

Lunch - Egg salad in a tortilla & cauliflower/broccoli with a small amount of cheese

Snack - orange & sunflower seeds

Supper - Porkchop, green beans and quinoa (sp)

no bed time snack I just wasnt feeling it

Day 3 - Lower Body

Damn my legs already hurt from the multiple days of workouts and I could usually do 30 seconds of the full minute of the exercises... working my way up to the full minute, failure of the muscles still means I did alright, and man did I sweat, or should I say .. glistened ?! hahaha

Doing TurboFire HIIT 15 and Stretch 10 tonight before bed as well, cant wait!!!!!! I've become an addict, serious addict.

Breakfast - usual shake

Snack - canteloupe & sunflower seeds

lunch - egg salad/lettuce & broccoli/cauliflower

Snack - orange & sunflower seeds

Supper - porkchop, quinoa and eggplant 

Snack - cottage cheese & grapes - if I can make it.. probably after workout 

I feel like all I do is eat and I never feel hungry this program has to be the best thing since sliced bread, oh yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[ashezlynn12]

21 Day Fix Day 1

I keep bouncing around, the joys of having Beachbody on Demand lets you choose any program you feel like doing at the time.  I did order 21 day fix though, the challenge pack, and started that the day I got it!  Oh my gosh I feel like I'm eating 24/7...have shakeology for breakfast and then 2 hours later it's snack time...and so on and so on, by 9pm I'm so full and tired!  Guess that's a good thing about the program it keeps you constantly full and truly not craving junk!  The thought of chocolate and alcohol and chips, etc. just doesn't appeal to me right now, even one day in (granted I've been eating "good" for a while now) but damn!  I did total body cardio fix and it was great, the modifier is my size!!!!!!!!! finally a modifier that actually looks like someone who NEEDS to modify things... awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.  My abs hurt though the last bit of that exercise just killed em!  Feels so good so good so good.  I ended the day with P90X3 total synergenics .. cannot do that program yet, boy was it hard.  

Yesterday's food:

Breakfast - Shakeology Chocolate, 4 tsp peanut butter, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tsp cinnamon and 1 C almond milk.... AMAZING

Snack - Yogurt & Berries - I did not enjoy this, was too sour for my taste, I ate 1/4 of it and saved the rest for later

Lunch - 2 tortillas, 2 green containers filled with lettuce, sprouts & tomato & 2 boiled eggs

Snack - Orange

After work snack - finished the yogurt and berries before workout

Supper - Salmon Burger - Cauliflower (2 green containers)

Snack - grapes & sunflower seeds (unsalted)

look at all that food!  CRAZY I say.  

I'm down to 146.5!!!!!!! YAY

[ashezlynn12]

TurboFire HIIT 15 & Stretch 40

Let me start by saying I did not like Stretch 40... I get why it's good to stretch build strength and flexibility but it was so BORING to me, that's why I like the HIIT you get super fast super pumped super awesome!  HIIT 15 I feel wasnt long enough, I loved the 55 one, tomorrow I believe is 25 so that will be good.  I just like the pumped up feeling, the fun energetic stuff for a minute and rest, perfect!  

I lost another .9 lbs despite my ice cream junk extravaganza on Saturday!!  only 99 more lbs to go, so excited, only 3 more until I hit my monthly goal!!!!

21 day fix will be here this week!!!! likely today (but I wont get to pick it up until tomorrow........I cannot wait to start, really cannot wait!!!!!!   I've seen such great results so far I think really measuring what I eat will pick it up even more, plus some shakeology, will see if it is worth the price I paid, it's cheaper than the other meal replacements I got (was paying $180/month) but that was also double the amount (60 pkgs) ...

Now today's food

Breakfast - shake

Snack - pear

Lunch - wrap (tortilla/hummus/lettuce/tomato/mushroom/mustard) & 2 eggs

Snack - orange

Supper - Salmon burger (185 cal), sauce (est. 60-100 cal), cauliflower (40 cal), bit of rice I have leftover (90 cal) aaaaaand hot sauce!

snack - possible cottage cheese/yogurt depending if I'm hungry or not!

[ashezlynn12]

Weekend of.. somewhat good?

Well Friday's workout was Chalean Extreme Burn Circuit 2 and 3, lots of weights, lots of sore arms, man that girl is strong!!!!!!!!!!! I ate well Friday, had Shake for breakfast and 85g chicken, 1/2 cup brown rice, 1 cup cauliflower and 1 cup of cottage cheese for lunch, I had jambalaya for supper though it was date night !  I also had half of a bread pudding ball, which was pretty awesome, but I'm alright with what I ate and the exercise I did.  

Saturday is where it went bad for me I woke up and had 2 eggs and toast, I then proceeded to rake the back and front yards which took 3 hours, we came in and I had the rest of my jambalaya, then we had some lava cake .. it was SO GOOD, but naughty me, then I had a chicken breast and some cauliflower for supper (pretty awesomely low in calories) but then BF treated me to ice cream, naughty bf, I had a DQ blizzard, it was so good, but also, so bad for me!  

Today (Sunday) is a shake for breakfast, tuna sandwich for lunch, and salmon burgers with salad and cauliflower side (have I mentioned how much I love cauliflower!!!?)

My 21 day fix should be here next week though, SO EXCITED, since starting to measure what I eat I feel like the containers will be much easier for portion control than having to weigh everything, etc.

I havent weight myself yet, I'll weigh myself again when the fix gets here, today is going to be my rest day since yesterday's rake extravaganza caused some major body pain, not quite ready to go into another super workout................

[ashezlynn12]

Oh goodness, first day of "clean eating" and look at it!

It's just so adorable, and I'm so darn full now!!!!

Anyone want to do a clean eating challenge?  I'll be making a group in Facebook to start May 1!  Accountability and exercise....drop me a comment and join in !! Beachbody is also having a 30 day free trial of on demand which I even took advantage of and it's awesome, you should check it out if you're just wanting to test the waters with the fitness and see what's out there, they also have a meal planner with on demand so you can have fool proof meals too and feel the difference!  Lets do this!

[ashezlynn12]

After workout, whewwwwwwww
