Happy July
Happy July! July is the month of my anniversary and also the month both of my kids were born.
I am thinking of becoming the Pink Power Ranger...I have seen each DVD 400 times and I am wondering if they are hiring. It is a cute little suit and imagine the fitness level achieved from saving the world from evil beings!!!
Like Beka and Martha I am on a Tony break. Don't get me wrong...the man is awesome. I am away for three weeks of this month and have changed my workouts a bit. I am doing a full body circuit three times a week and am finding that interval cardio is working for me (six minutes after workouts) I am also being realistic about my eating. Normally I fail in the summer. I attempt to eat clean and then say screw it...go off plan and then attempt to start again. This time I am taking a modified weight watchers approach combined with clean eating choices. Goes like this. Keeping points for everything I eat...whether it is clean or not. At the end of the day I will have consumed the correct number of calories and hopefully mostly clean calories. That way I can enjoy that beer or piece of cake. I know this will not create the body of a fitness model but it will allow me to move forward...lose a few pounds a week and not kill myself.
I am all about enjoying my family this summer. It is strange that for the first time in forever I am content to just be home, playing on the slip and slide, going to the pool or just dressing up as a power ranger :) Workouts have moved to the basement with free weights and a ball. The greatest thing is my daughter has joined me and it has allowed us to talk about making healthy choices...and being happy with our God given bodies. She is making better choices about the fuel she feeds her body, too.
My latest craze...endamame. steamed, lightly salted and the kids go wild for it.
Off to workout!
