{ REAL TALK } Even I get in funks. I'm having an off day where I don't want to work out. I'm trying my hardest to not give into my cravings because I know deep down I don't want it. When I'm stressed my anxiety comes out. It doesn't discriminate. My hormones are going crazzzzy. And all I want is ice cream. I feel like curling up and being a hermit. I'm allowing myself an impromptu rest day because my body says so. This depression and anxiety I've fought for years still pays me a visit from time to time. I'm a fighter and will be ok. My head is in a much better place than it 5 years ago. Back at it tomorrow 👊🏻

Leg day is donezo! ✔️ While it's a love/hate relationship, this program has helped me lose an inch ( YES 1 whole inch) in EACH thigh...those of you who know me personally know that this is huge! If you had to pick, which move is your favorite? And why? • Lunges • Squats • Leg lifts

{ Lunge with bent over Row } This is one of my favorite workouts from the fix for the simple fact that it's working my legs a bit, and my back.

Sweating from errrywhere this morning post leg day! Gah😅 I got to try out my new toy too! I went with the Garmin. And while I'm not using it as a HR monitor (because I have a polar for that) it is fun to see my steps, sleep pattern, notifications, and it alerts me if I've been too lazy and need to move my butt haha #DeskJobProbs

Wait did that just happen?! I totally crushed that ginormous hill at the beginning of my run...what what🙌🏻 I'm telling you what, you may feel like quitting on this journey, it's at those points when you dig deeper and blow your own damn mind 👊🏻 It takes consistency and a bit of hustle, but I promise the feeling you have of accomplishing things you never thought possible make it all worth it 😘

Did you know the legs contain the largest muscle groups in the body. And that means they burn the most FAT the stronger they are 😏💪🏻 So ladies, just by adding a few leg day weight sessions a week can make a HUGE difference in the way your body sheds the pounds. Got my leg day in, did you?

Danced my bootay off with my girl @katied128 💃🏼🎶 I'm a firm believer that fitness should be enjoyable...while I'm not the best dancer, I have a damn good time! And that burn ain't too bad either 😏 #ThisSummersGonnaHurt #workitwednesday

{ Fall in love with the process, and the results will come } Stop focusing on the scale. Stop focusing on a particular size. Yes I want you to have goals. But think about the amazing things you're doing for your body. You're making it healthier and stronger each workout, and each healthy meal. Fall in love with that feeling of endorphins kicking in and that natural high you get. Fall in love with the sense of accomplishment you get when you actually get a workout in (even if it's 10 minutes) Results will happen if you stay consistent. Might as well enjoy that ride!

{ Basically chocolate is salad } 😂 Tis my time of the month and as much as I want to grab a pint of chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream and gobble it down on the couch while watching mean girls (you know that the perfect day!) I'm not... Thank goodness for my superfood chocolate protein shake 🙌🏻 I mean I tried to mimic a Reese's by throwing some PB in there...and let's just say tastebuds (and hormones 😉) are happy campers! Oh AND I've experienced zero cramping while drinking my Shakeology. PMS symptoms have been reduced DRASTICALLY! Sooo while my uterus does its thang...I'm going to enjoy the chocolate and feel totally guiltLESS! What are some of your fav PMS remedies?! I've heard of teas, heating pads....

Totally guilt tripping over here 🙈 Guysss I missed a Monday!! I know, I know ...it totally goes against that saying "never miss a Monday!" But in my defense, the hubs brought home the rollers to get our kitchen painted sooo I womaned up and knocked that out with him 😐 by the time he was back splashing the wall it was 10:30 😩 no way I could push play! Sooo in true slacker fashion I earned my double today. One hour of Plyo and upper fix. The point is, I've made a commitment to myself to make myself a priority and to complete this program. Sure there will be snags along the way, but I can't let it derail me. Keep on pushing. Keep on fighting even when life gives you the short end of the stick. You can either make excuses or make shiz happen! Am I right?! 👊🏻 (bump it 😜)

Meet my personal trainer 😂 She likes to really push you to your limits hehe...Ry decide it was a good idea to add 32 lbs to my tricep dips 🙈💪🏻 BUT I'd rather my daughter have memories like these instead of me sitting the sidelines while she plays.
