Day 45 DONE…I’m halfway there!

I am so proud of myself for not missing a single workout, especially during finals week! Normally I don’t stress about missing a workout during finals week, but it was really nice to exercise during finals week. It gave me more energy and a much needed break from studying! Now that I am halfway to being a p90x grad I wanted to do a “progress check”.

What I think I am doing well:

1. Improving my diet. Shakeology has really helped me improve my diet. I can tell that I have more energy, because I am getting the nutrients my body needs! The chocolate flavor tastes like a chocolate milkshake so it really helps with my sweet tooth! (I have a weakness for candy)! Also, I have been going to my local co-op more frequently to buy vegetables and making food with more vegetables. Click here to learn more about Shakeology! 
2.  Not missing a single workout! I am so proud of myself! Even when I was exhausted last night from a week of finals I still my back/biceps workout AND Ab Ripper X! Having the support of my Beachbody crew has helped me so much. This would not have been possible a few months before. If you would like this support from me click here and message me saying that you would like me to be your coach!

 My chocolate Shakeology milkshake! I just blend 1/2 cup soymilk, a cup of water and ice with my chocolate Shakeology. Only 200 calories! Yum! 

Things I would like to improve over the next 45 days:

1. I would like to keep improving my diet. Finals week was rough… many Goldfish crackers were consumed in the attempt to pass my classes! At one point I even begged my boyfriend to go to the store and get me some chewy candy (rock bottom?...). Luckily (for my diet) he was sick and couldn’t go to the store.
2. Lately I have been getting in the bad habit of pausing my workouts. Obviously if you need to pause the workouts there is nothing wrong with that! However, I have been pausing my workout videos frequently even though I don’t “need” to, because I’ll get a text message or I’ll remember I need to email someone or I’ll remember I need to do something else. I need to stop doing this because I know I will get a better workout (and better results!)  if I don’t take any extra breaks. So, maybe I will keep a notepad next to me when I exercise and if I think of anything I need to do I will write it down.

 Here are my progress photos. I can see an improvement in my abs and thighs. Over the next 45 days I would like to see more improvement in my thighs, because that is my trouble area!

So, I have a few questions for everyone:

What have you been doing well with your fitness plan?

What would you like to improve?

If you need any help and would like a coach I would love to be there for you!
