I'm finally in the 150s! Seriously haven't weighed this much in over a year! I am so excited! And I am 20lbs down post baby in 3 months! Now on that note, I'm going to go kill some back and bis with the husband for the 4th of July 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💪💪💪😁😁 #noexcuses #nolimitz #fitmom #motivate #neversettle #nevergiveup
Committing to something goes a long way. Saying I'm hungry to achieve my goals is an understatement. The drive that is burning in my heart is strong. I'll never settle for average. I have no desire for making up excuses for why I didn't do something I said I was going to do because it was to hard or I just didn't feel like it today. Actions scream louder than words. 💯 First picture was one of the first pictures I posted of myself after Cayden. I was so embarrassed after I posted it. But looking back I'm happy I did. It's only been three months... Imagine what 3 more months is going to look like😘😋😎💪 #nolimitz #fitmom #commitment

"Any goal, regardless of how much it is cherished or how earnestly it's developed, will make little progress unless it is supported by commitment. Without commitment, the goals we set for ourselves are mere dreams-ideas that don't have the fitting to be realized. Just as motivation provides the energy to set goals and begin the journey, commitment provides the power to stick with it over time so that goals can be actualized." I actually just started reading a book "Commit to Win" I love it so far. I'm plan on starting to blog about it after I get into it a bit more. Yesterday I was at the beach with a really good friend I haven't seen in two years. He was my best friend in the navy, he got me out of more than just a few rough times and he's the one that introduced me to the gym. I can honestly say he saved me. But he said something to me that meant a lot to me and I know will stick with me forever. I was talking about competing and how I can't wait to get back on stage. He responded with, "you will, you have always done what you said you're going to do." I thought about it and I have. My whole life I have been a fighter. When I say I'm going to do something I do it. I commit to my word, no matter how bad it sucks or life tries to weigh me down. I have had plenty of opportunities in my life to just say eff it and give up. But I don't. I never will. I love the suck and the challenge. I love how if I keep working hard its worth it in the end. I'm not a motivated person... I'm committed, I'm committed to be the best I can be for myself and family.
There is no excuse to workout at at least 3 times a week! Remember excusesdontburnfat
I’d probably add time it takes to eat food, travel, etc… But I guess I’m just more precise.
Regardless, the message is true! Working out doesn’t have to take long.

Let's talk Carbs...
So many people tell me they cannot lose anymore weight and they hit a plateau. Well what are you eating? Answer is almost ALWAYS, “Just small amounts of protein and I cut carbs completely out of my diet.”
WHAT?! WHY?! Carbs are energy! You need carbs! Healthy carbs of course not the sugar and junk!
First I bet most of you do not know what your thyroid gland is. It is a very important hormonal gland that plays an essential role in metabolism, growth, and maturation of the human body. It regulates many of the bodies functions. It releases a specific amount of hormones into the blood. So if you decrease your carbohydrate intake for a long period of time along with a low calorie diet, it has a negative impact on your thyroid. The thyroid hormones regulate the rate of the metabolism, along with the energy you spend at rest throughout the day, which all affects the results you want, your results will slow down and your weight will plateau. At first it is not very noticeable that your metabolism is slowing down. BUT like you all know and have asked me why you plateau, the result of cutting out carbs and having a low calorie diet is why! Your body needs carbs!
I am guilty of this as well. When I first started I just thought all I needed to do was drink a shake and eat broccoli. Hell no! Your body needs healthy fuel. Especially if you are working out.
If you are lifting you definitely want to keep carbs in your meal plan. Depending on the intensity of your work out and your goals you would adjust the amount of carbs you intake. You need carbs for the energy you plan to put out during your training sessions. If you are on a low carb and calorie diet you will notice that your intensity will decrease after 1-2 weeks and lifts will come to a halt pretty fast. Your muscle glycogen will start to deplete, your CNS will become exhausted, and it will start to get harder for you to get out of bed.
Besides the lack of energy you will have, carbs are directly related to your body recovering after you work out. After each training session you will start to notice that you will become weaker and weaker.
The amount of carbs you consume plays a part on the amount of water your body stores. So if you are doing a low calorie diet and cut out carbs, you’re losing water weight. Those pounds are not fat and the loss won’t last. (That is why I hate the quick fix scams. 24 day challenges ect.)
There is a difference with having moderate carbs in your diet and non. You need the proper nutrition to achieve the body you want. So yeah cutting out carbs drastically is a quick fix, but let’s get real, you’re going to have a bad day and eat a pizza, cookies, ice cream, I mean your human and then you are going to be back to where you started.
Now there are completely different types of carbs. You have your good carbs and bad carbs. If you have common sense I bet you already know that candy, chips, pizza, so on and so on are BAD CARBS. Good carbs are veggies, fruit, and whole grains.
There ya go... Do NOT cut out carbs. Eat them in moderation and make sure they are full of nutrients!
10 Mental Boosters For A Better Workout
Challenge 1 - Face Failure Head On
Don’t let fear of failure leave you stagnant. Apprehension will cause you to hold a steady, creeping pace. This isn’t bad in and of itself, but let’s be frank: There’s a time to be cautious, and a time to let enthusiasm stamp down on the accelerator. Life is a journey, but you don’t get there by driving the same speed both in the school zone and on the freeway.
Instead of thinking of your ambitious goal as a guaranteed failure, tackle your challenge by recognizing it as a step toward a stronger you—no matter what comes out of it.
Challenge 2 - Don’t Let Others Set Your Goals
Looking for advice on the latest music or how your swimsuit looks from behind? By all means, ask a friend. But when it comes to your fitness goals, take other people’s opinions for what they are: Something that belongs to someone other than you.
This isn’t easy. The closer people are to you, the more they’ll feel the need to tell you exactly how much you can accomplish. And you’d better believe they can be convincing. But they’re still not you. Don’t let them make you settle.
Challenge 3 - Silence Self Doubt
Sometimes, no amount of gym music or background noise can drown out that little voice squeaking, “What are you doing trying to lift a 200-pound barbell?” or “You can’t land that box jump!”
The only voice that is loud enough to defy the voice of failure is your own. Trade in the self-doubting “Why me?” for the empowering “Why not me?” Say it right now. Say it! Great things begin with those three words. It’s time to add your dreams to the list.
Challenge 4 - Use Negatives to Fuel Positive Change
Has arm flab got you down? Does lack of muscle tone have you feeling like a failure? Cast a positive light on negativity. When you look at yourself in the mirror, see your potential and how what you have now will help you get where you want to go. Instead of saying “I’m so fat,” switch it to, “My solid frame will help me be able to lift a lot.” Instead of saying “I look like a skeleton,” say, “I’ve got the perfect structure to fill out with some muscle.” READ MORE… Source: BodyBuilding.Com
Mind over matter
Abs are in the kitchen! Hasnt even been 3 months since Cayden and a C-section and they are already coming in! Why!? Because one i have an awesome coach, two because i eat clean! You want abs you have to eat like you want abs. There is no fat burner, no miracle pill, no 50000 crunches, no 24 day stupid challenge that will get you abs. The only thing that will get you abs is eating clean! I'm working on a blog about what it means to eat clean.💪hopefully have it posted in the next couple days😊
