Lose Weight Get in Shape with Sara Fennell 1 Week Check In

It's been a whole week so far!

I'm liking the workouts, but would like to workout more.  I hate cardio.  Did I say that I hate cardio? Yes. Yes I did. Thankfully that is limited to mornings (optional) and after lifting.

The food is going well for the most part.  I have the hardest time during the weekends when my husband wants to go out.  For him, it's better not to eat for a long time and then get some crap food.  Apparently, my need for a structured eating program is something I'm going to have to fight for.  He also likes to go out and buy wine.  How awesome.

No, I haven't been an angel about drinking.  I have limited it, but during the weekend, when my husband brings me wine, is a different story.  I need to just say no.

My water intake varies from day to day, but I'm doing a ton better.  If I am truly lacking I will go ahead and add some flavoring.  I know its a no-no, but sometimes it's worth it.

So.........first week check in.  I have lost 2 pounds in this first week.  Not bad for seemingly to be continually stuffing my face with food.  I know that if I can tighten up on my bad stuff this will happen quickly.  So, hopefully next week is better.

FYI - you check in every 2 weeks with Sara, officially.  You can always email her if you have questions.

Till later

DFW 6 Hour Layover

What a time to go to Madrid.  Though this winter has been our mildest yet, it was still a relief from the cold.  And though Spain has year long tourism, we found that February was one of the best months to go.  Tourism picks up noticeably in March.  We used out air miles to get us there. Of course that means that you have to put up with milk runs, long layovers, and the like.  We had a six hour layover in one of our least liked airports, Dallas Fort Worth (DFW), in Texas. We have been here before on our way to Mexico.  There as nothing there and of course we were starved and needed coffee.  So, we really weren’t looking forward to this part. I decided that it might be bearable if I brought some goodies with me and took a nap while there.  That’s where my research began.  And then came some good news, they’ve done some upgrades. Nothing spectacular but at least something.  We noticed that they had a micro hotel available in t...

10 Weeks BodyChange Changetime Review

I enjoy the idea of online coaching.  I really like the sites that allow food tracking and have a community area to chat with people that are in it with you.  I like interaction with my trainer whenever needed or to give me a boost.  In my search for the perfect program, 10 Weeks BodyChange with John Cena somehow got on my radar. Okay not my typical type of guy I am attracted to, but I'm not blind.  John Cena is eye candy.  What's better?  Oh yeah, he actually seems like he is a great guy.  I think I could make myself workout with him. This program is $99 for 12 weeks of access.  I searched for a coupon code, but they were all expired.  There is also a payment option, but you pay more that way.  There is also a 30 day guarantee.  The program is 10 weeks, and you get another two of the access to the website.  Then you are cut off.  You can sign up/pay for their other program which is just a continuation and maintenance ...

Rice Congee Jook

I have fallen in love.  I've been on the lookout for things to do with Chinese healthy eating and medicinal food.  Mostly this is for my stomach, which is almost always in turmoil and for weight loss.  I know, I know... I need to go get a full allergy testing done.  But for some reason I can't make myself.  Maybe I am happy in my ignorance.  I do hate the thought that I would not, in good conscience, be able to eat all the foods that I love if I know what they do to me. I came across a recipe for congee on one of my searches.  It also goes by the name of jook, depending on where you are in China.  You would actually find this recipe all over Asia, and it is the go to meal for when you are not feeling well.  It is also a great breakfast food. I had recently purchased my new Instant Pot electric pressure cooker.  OMG!! This machine is awesome.  It's a 6 in 1 pot that is a pressure cooker, slow cooker, steamer, soup and chili maker...
