Update- My Transformation

Hey guys, I'm back to fill you in on the recent progress.

Today is Day 45!

It's going great

&

I'm down 23 lbs!!

That's half a pound a day. 

My legs are almost SICK ;)


I strive for burning 1000 calories a day. 


So, when I loose a pound. I'm grateful. 


Man, it feels great to see how much my body can tolerate
and my improvement.

I want to live forever (don't you?) and I hope this works ;)

This mornings workout and
in the evening I knocked out another 500. 


My face is thinning out. 


Cause my fat is crying! 



See the battle scars. Love.



I have 16 more lbs to go. Then the real work 
begins. Tightening up and keeping it at bay. 


How do you make it work for you?

My Crazy Life and New Focus! - Life Changing

Hey ya'll! it's been a while...



I've been on a journey. Physically, emotional and financially.


What a great ride!

I'm enjoying every second of it. It's rewarding and empowering when your hard work starts to pay off.



Physically; I'm on day 37 and I've lost 18lbs. I love my journey to transforming my body. I joined a Boot Camp and have taken up Cross Fit and walk/run (3 miles at 5:45am) hopefully, it'll turn into straight runs by end of July. My legs are killer. My arms are cutting thru. I've lost 6 inches around the waist. Damn, that is sexy! =D



I've cut ALL sugars, flour, wheat, pasta, potatoes and such. The first 2 weeks were tough. Then I plateau. Now my metabolism is on overdrive. My body is rewarding me.




In general; I'm focused on building muscle percentage and lowering BMI. NOT BEING SKINNY.
I enjoy my boobs and booty. I'm working really hard at not losing them, but improving them.

Here's my inspiration



Now, that's bad ass!

I'm up to 3 reps of 20 on the inclined pushups. SEXY!

Try 3 reps of 40 on this one

TRX- I'm strong so, TRX is a good time for me! =D

Annie Sakamoto is a beast and my top favorite!


Check out those guns- BOOM!




I'm still a fatty, but I not for long =D
Muscles cutting thru!





Thinner face to start matching the rest of me! Love it!

Two days later I was down 3lbs. What the what? Yep, that's right. It's Thursday and I'm at - 4 lbs. since Monday =D


I will lose 6 lbs. by next Friday because I'm telling my body what to do and fat where to go



It's works.

05/23/13

Its extreme (I'm an extremist), but going HARD works for me. Find what works for you and do not allow distractions!




Stay the course



Emotional; we all know physical and emotional are equivocally related.

I no longer accept others problems.

Although, I feel bad for peoples plights. I choose ME!



My friends were struggling with this, but they are very kind and respectful of my boundaries. I love them for that. They have supported me by respecting me focus. It's my journey and I need SILENCE!

The absence of other people’s problems has helped my relationships greatly. There is more room for emotional intimacy and I'm slowly becoming more emotionally intelligent.

 


Financially; Dave Ramsey. K.I.S.S.
Holy Shiat! =D



I'm glad I get to share this with you guys. It's been my dirty little secret.




Stay connected and share with me how you improved or plan to improve you.

2012 Christmas List

Here's what's on our Christmas list this year.

Nelson is getting expensive. I mean he has turned out to be a very very expensive 13 year old. So, this year he gets 2 big items and books.

Jacob at 7 is a bit easier to impress. He's so simple. Anything that involves sound, moving, throwing or kicking is aokay by him.

Gotta love them!

One more day of shopping ( Black Friday) and it's a wrap! =D
This will be the big purchase of the year. New living room TV. Can't wait to play some 360 on this bad boy =D


Since Nelson loves my playbook so much, he gets his own.


Nelson and I each will be sporting new head wear! Whoooeee

Now, for my baby Jacob. He posed a challenge for me....

But here we goes.


I hope my lil Scientist enjoys this.

Carnivorous Creations - I absolutely love FatBrainToys.com

POKEMON! Gotta love =D

Still thinking on this one. Not sure Jacob will be able to control his fearless nature on his thing.

This weekend I'll be hitting the book stores and loading up on books, puzzles and stocking suffers. 

Am I missing something?

Share your favorite finds for Christmas 2012

Belated Boston Show Off

Boston. Fun. Family. Adventure.

 Boys waiting for train.


On our way to ORD.


Snacks


 and more ... Snack time.


Tablet time.



Jacob gives Amtrak thumbs up.

The boys really enjoyed the comfort and style of the train. We were able to nap, charge phones, tablets, cameras and have a few rounds of hang man, UNO and of course eat crappy food. Lol
 

Chillin' at the airport, waiting for our flight.


These two are such pro's. They know exactly what to do.
I'm extremely proud of them! And I must say, so far I've done a great job!!!


The next day we took the Red Line.



Harvard. Here we come!



Harvard. Nuff said.


 





John Harvard was from England and was not the founder of Harvard. He was the first be benefactor. He died in Cambridge at the age of 30 in 1638. There are no photographs of the man.





Nelson was inspired by Harvard. Let's hope it sticks! =D


Three of my favorite boys.
They are my heart!


I love how you can see them in motion.


On the T.


Can you picture the horse and buggies?

Boston Common. Did you know they preformed public hangings in the park in the 1600's?


It was an absolutly georgeous day for walking.


This is where we started to follow the Freedom Trail.


Q: Can you name this building and it's history?
A: Massachusetts State House


Since Nelson's done this a few times in Boston, he's guiding us through.  Man, my kid has spirit and has become a great little man.


Red line, check out those curves. 

That night we got sleepy doo.


The next morning we were up super early. Breakfast at Au bon pain and more exploring with Tio.


In Cambridge. Waiting for Bud aka Laurie. My dearest and longest friend. I've known her for over 20 yrs. She is has been my sister and best friends even thou we live miles away.

After almost 4 hrs of walking...


China Town


On our way back to Cambridge.

By late 2013 the boys and I will be Bostonians!



Amtrak. Home bound.

What a beauty this place was. Best city ever. Okay, I lie. NYC is! =D
Btw, I'm finally blogging from my tablet and I love it! =D
