GOALS...what are they good for?

Absolutely EVERYTHING! :)



When you are setting your goals here are a few things to think about.

1) Make them specific & measurable.

2) Make them challenging yet realistic.

3) Set both long term & short term goals.
**But don't set too many you become overwhelmed**

4) Develop a strategy to ACHIEVE your goals.

5) Re-evaluate your goals from time to time.

ALWAYS push just beyond your comfort zone to reach that next level.

My Personal 3 Day Shakeology Cleanse

I DID IT!!!
I just finished the 3 day Shakeology Cleanse. I feel amazing! I do feel like I need to warn you...THIS POST MAY CONTAIN TO MUCH INFO...for some of you...mostly the men. :)
But, this is who I am. I get down to the nitty gritty & don't hold back. If you think you can handle it...READ ON!



I didn't pay attention to the calendar when I decided to do the cleanse. Ladies, I think you know what I mean. TIME OF THE MONTH (TOM for short) :P

Today I woke with CRAMPS! UGH! Not on weigh in day!!!

Anyway, lets skip back to DAY 1...
I walked for my exercise & felt amazing all day! But truth be told, I was STARVING when it came to dinner time. My big salad was gone in minutes.

Day 2~ Still feeling SUPER! My boys & I hit the high school track for a short run/walk cardio session. When we got home I hit play with ChaLEAN Extreme (weight training) & finished with Turbo Fire's CORE 20 workout. I felt UNSTOPPABLE! I also was NOT starving today.

Day 3~EXTREMELY SORE from my workouts, took my DOR (day of rest). I felt GREAT all day & had TONS of energy to run my boys around to different appointments & shopping for school supplies. I even had the strength to pass up the mall food court when my boys wanted to get some lunch. It was a great day. Last night got a little hairy when my husband decided to pop some air popped popcorn. UGH. I held strong & GULPED my water! :)


I did do a couple of things differently than what the cleanse calls for. I had fresh veggies instead of fruit for my snacks. Fresh from the garden. YUM!
I also drank my green tea cold. I just like it that way better.


So with it being that time of the month, I weighed in this morning 2 pounds down! While not the 5-8 that some get, it was great for me. Here's why...

I also took my measurements...it's the personal trainer in me. I am DOWN in ALL areas!
Chest-1/2 inch
Waist-1 INCH!!
Poochy low ab area-1/2 inch
Hips-1/2 inch
Thighs-1/2 inch
Calves-1/2 inch

So, if you're counting...that's 2 pounds & 3.5 inches in 3 DAYS!!! 3 DAYS PEOPLE!!!

Plus, it totally erased my normal PRE-TOM symptoms! BLOAT & CRAVINGS being 2 HUGE ones, for me! GONE!!! I really wasn't expecting that. It was a VERY nice surprise. :)


No bloat & I got to feed my CHOCOLATE craving EVERY DAY...3x's a day.

So, that's it. I would call it a successful cleanse. The next time I do it I will be checking the calendar first. LOL!

Please feel free to comment on this blog! I love getting feedback!

DO IT!!!!

If you are able bodied you should be moving it every day. If you sit out on the sidelines you are sitting out of life. Jump back in the game!

When it is obvious that the goals cannot be reached, don’t adjust the goals, adjust the action steps.

This quote reminds me that the change I want to see in my body will ONLY come with HARD work...not by just doing enough.
