Round 2 Week 1 Fix Update

Another 1.6 lbs lost!!  I'm super excited about these losses EVERY week, because just a month ago, I was so frustrated with my plateau that lasted for 6 weeks!!  

One thing I have noticed is that I am fuller faster. Even when I have a cheat meal (like last night), I couldn't finish the half-portion that my husband and I split. It felt good!!  Because I know I don't NEED that much. I just WANT that much. So how will my routine look from now on...

As I said last week, I have no definite date for a competition because I know I need to get the fluff off before I can go into a season of prep. However, I don't want the eating routine to be such a big change and the 21 day fix has me covered with that. It's called the 3 Day Quick Fix. It's packed with lots of protein and veggies!!  I plan on doing the 3 day quick fix every two weeks. With the first round starting next Monday. 



I'll be eating some carbs in the morning but then after that it will be a serving of protein and veggies every couple of hours. In excited to see what type of results I can get and how my body/mind will change. 

Until then, I will follow the 21 Day Fix eating plan along with my challengers and exercises, upping the weights when things become easier. 

So cheers!!  Cheers to new adventures, fresh starts and lifelong health and wellness!!

Happy 3rd Blog-aversary!!

It's been three (3) years to the day since I began blogging.  I've taken a LONG break lately as I have had many transitions in my life.  But in the past few weeks, I've been considering sharing more about the next stage of this journey called life with you all. In three short years, I have gone from motivating others to experiencing weight gain and depression.  Being delivered from said depression and fighting to lose the weight.  I'd say sometimes in life, motivation shows up in the difficult times and then sometimes it's no where to be found-- a bit of a roller coaster really. And about a year ago, I was tired.  Tired of not getting enough sleep, tired of the structure and I needed a break.  This break cost me about 20 lbs and goodness has it been tough to get my mind right again.  But I'm experiencing life!!  Enjoying the moment!  And making memories with my family and friends that have been so good for my soul. And in this season, ...

The Summit...Would You Start Over?

So as most of you know, I went to Nashville last month for Beachbody's national convention called Summit.  It is the most amazing event where people who's purpose is to help others get together, share wonderful ideas/trainings and completely refill your cup before you go back home. This year one of the speakers was talking about completing a workout program in it's entirety when we returned home.  And they were telling us not to start over if we hit some bumps in the road.  Now, I for one, am a habitual "starter over" so I probably turned a little red (those who know me know how a can get flushed in a split second).  In a room of about 14k people, I was feeling like they were talking right to me. But then the best example was given...when you begin a hike/climb up a mountain, if you didn't like how fast you went or your progress in the first few hours, would you start over??? Um...NO way!!  That seems like a no-brainer.  There's no way that you would ...

Creating Momentum: Day 1 of the 3 Day Quick Fix

So here goes nothing. Yesterday I prepped everything that I'll be eating for the next three days!  It was exciting. And nerve-wrecking all at the same time. I didn't like that I indulged yesterday more than normal just because I knew I would have those things for THREE DAYS!  Really Nicole, come on!!  I know I still have a LOT of mental work to do to help me get to where I want to be. That's why I'm trying out the three day quick fix to see how my body reacts to it and how I mentally handle being on a restrictive diet. During a competition prep, there can be cheat meals and other foods added in to your regime;  however for the 3 Day Quick Fix, protein and veggies rule.  I will be making one modification to the plan because I can't go three days without Shakeology. It's my nutritional supplement and "pick-me-up everyday!" Because it is considered a "red," during meal two I will be drinking my shake in place of the other protein listed along wi...
