Our Beach Body Journey

I haven't blogged in a very long time!  I thought I should start back up again to talk about our new journey that we have started! First I want to say why we started! Then I want you to know what it is...Then I want to talk about struggles!!!

Why Start Beach Body!!!

 Ryan and I love food!! Shoot who doesn't!!!  We have been eating really bad food! I can eat chips, cookies, chex mix!! Like nothing people!  Cookies! They are easy for me to eat!  We also don't really gain because we workout like crazy people!!! Its this silly little cycle!!! We want results but we aren't eating the things that we need to get the results!!!  On the workout part we both needed something to push us and be a change!!!  So I thought well hell lets give this a try!!!

First what is t25

Shaun T the guy who made insanity came up with a new program.
Its a series of dvd that are 25 mins long!!! Everyone struggles to find time to workout!!!  But everyone can find 25 mins!!!  Monday through Friday you have a dvd to do.  On Friday you do double...Saturday is rest and sunday is stretch!

Nutrition!!! The program came with shakeology which is amazing! So amazing I will have to just write a blog just about it!  The program came with a fast track that has everything for the week planned for you so you just got to go buy the stuff!  The next week you have another cook book to look through!  The first week you learn exactly what you should be eating!!!


Our progress!!!
Beach Body is a really neat program set up for you to succeed! I love the program!  Would recommend this program for any level of fitness!  Any program is what you bring to the table! if you eat bad and you don't do the workout full out then you will not get results!!!

The first week was a change for us!!! Yes you still want burgers, fries, chips, etcs!!!  This isn't a diet its a life style change!  We have to train our bodies to show them good foods!!!  I have tried food this week I would have never thought to eat!  We also got a food scale to measure our food!!  We have meal planned!  I know people say omg  so much work! It actually has saved money on what we spend on food!!  The fact of the matter is if you want result yes you have to work!! Its called sucking it up and putting your big girl panties on!! Nothing is a quick fix! you gotta put in time and things happen!!!

The workouts!!! Kill me yes! I feel like Bridgett Jones trying to do some of the moves! I can't do a push up! sometimes I feel like I'm dying!  I know on facebook I'm always saying we got this!! Well I still struggle! I still get my butt kicked!  But you get up and you do it again until you can do it!! I also have those days where I just want to give up!  But I look at my pictures I remind myself of my goals and I keep just pushing!!!

Our first week we lost a total together of 14.7 pounds!! Amazing! I know this week will be smaller!  But its the right directions!  So if you are someone and you are looking for inspiration!  Find some pictures...print them out!!! Remind yourself that you are in control of your life!  I feel if you really want something then you will do anything to make it happen!!!  My goal this week is two pounds!!!

I wanted to post some of the things that inspire me!!!

My friend Amanda who just finished a half a marathon!!! She is amazing inspiration to me!

My beach body Coach and Friend who reclaimed her body from having a second kid!!

Jenny a military wife and was a sailor!  She changed her body soo much! She prob doesn't know shes
Shes an inspiration to me but she is! Her Arms inspire me!!!!!
My biggest inspiration is my husband!!! Without him I would not be where I am!!! 
Support team is what makes me successful!!!  My husband believes in me when I
Don't believe in myself!  With someone like that by your side you can do the world!
I am also something that inspires me! I look at how far I have come and it pushes me every
day to keep pushing!

This blog is random!  Prob crazy grammar but I hope it inspires someone out there to
just get moving!  Or just to pick up better food!!!!!
