New #goals #new #journey to become..... #hot #sexy #bikini #vacation #ready

  So I haven't written for a while since I hit some of my major goals one which was being 21.6 % body fat. Well cheat days happened and fun was had, so I had to refocus and decide what I wanted to do so I'm starting this journey at 23.7 % body fat and 140lbs so I don't think its noticeable to others because most of the ten pounds is muscle mass and I only gained 2.1 % body fat from all the fun I had , but I'm a little frustrated that I gained 2 % body fat cause if you see what 1.5 lbs of fat which is what that works out too its so gross. So I decided it was time to refocus and put a good foot forward . Me new goals are going to be fun to obtain. My long reach goal is to be 18% body fat by February 14 th 2015 and my shorter sight goal is to be 21 % body fat by January 1 st 2015. I set up with rewards and treats for each day I stick with it and week I stick with it. If I hit my goal of 18% body fat on time I'm gonna treat my self to a shopping spree. I will allow myself every Saturday to have a day free of weighing out foods and portions and eat a little more freely then I do the rest of the week . But still not gorging myself. I'm still uo in the air about whether or not I will allow myself to have wine or not but will see maybe I'll save that for Christmas time and for now focus on what I'm doing.

 

This is me at the beginning of October.

   Like most people I was in denial, I mean in my eyes I was looking pretty good even though in the back of your head you know you gained and all your friends as good as they are won't tell you, you gained. Maybe to spare your feelings maybe no back bone who knows . I know that you don't need a friend to tell gained, your favorite pair of pants don't fit, and let's be honest they don't fit for one reason only not because they shrunk in the dryer. Its cause you gained and the cruelty of it all is its all in the face, the stomach and the ass. Not far but just a fact of life. My favorite pair of pants didn't fit and I sold myself every reason under the sun like they were always tight, or they are fresh out of the dryer and so on. I knew I had gained and the only way to fix it was to face it I gained weight, a lot of weight . I had to face it head on and make some changes. If I wanted to return to my former size I had to decide that now was the time to change. So I decided that I had to start with getting some exercise a lot easier said then done.

       I went the first local gym with a free pass and when I got there, there were people who looked like body builders and fitness models and I though jeez how will I ever get to look like that . I asked for my free pass and all of a sudden I was in an office signing up for trainers, body assessments and unrealistic fitness packages. I just wanted to try the gym out not commit to become a fitness model or body builder. So my first experience was undesirable. I left with a bad taste in my mouth and scared to step foot in another gym. I didn't want to be called out or noticed I wanted to blend in and maybe shred some fat of my ass. I didn't want a dating service where I had to wear make up to the gym.

     Next I tried an all ladies gym which when I walked in it was mixed ages and felt like home. I knew this was the gym for me. I hoped my first meeting with the lady at the gym would be different then the other gym and it was. Thank god she asked what I wanted and what my goals were and asked how she could help me. I felt like this was going to be great. I signed up thinking I only had a few pounds to lose and could watch TV do light cardio and get in shape. I was wrong it wasn't like on TV lol you had to get sweaty and give an honest effort. So I thought I better give it a real go. I got on the stair climber thinking I have stairs in my apartment I take them when the elevator is broken this would be a good place to start. Wow I was wrong as I got about five minutes into it I was panting and sweaty and unable to form words while the eighty-six year old women beside me watched her soap opera and glanced through a magazine. What the heck how is some one three times my age killing it and I'm being killed . This was proving to be a lot more difficult then expected.

Now you know how I felt when I first started the gym and how hard it was to get to where I am . I will add more as I go along about my journey to today

 As I make my way through this journey I realize that this isn't a hobby anymore or a cute pass time its a rigid life style choice that I have fallen in love with. I lose my way now and again but I know that the hard work is all worth it. The results are my reward I try to guide other people along the way who have questions well questions I can answer . I give them the knowledge and I don't preach to them cause everyone has there own way and they have to sort out whether they want to follow the way I do it with fit click and really watching my macro nutrients . My results are proof enough to me that its working for me but each to there own. I feel adhering to a strict Sunday to Friday is the way for me to ensure I don't go over board allowing Saturday for naughty fun where I can eat and drink what ever I want no questions asked and sticking to the diet the rest of the week which is just a controlled intake of carb protein and fat with 60 grams of fiber or less. it click makes it so simple for me it gives me guide lines and such so I know when I have made my daily intake . Thanks Layne Norton for showing me this wonderful site that takes all the complications out of it .

 Everybody has abs. The bad news is that you can do a million crunches a day but never get a six pack. So cruel eh? The gym never seems fair like its a twisted game where the rules change constantly. Six pack abs and sexy waist do come from a combination of thing including crunches, but more importantly diet and cardio. Everyone of us has a six pack of different intensities but that layer of fat over it that all women have covers it like a blanket and the only way to beat it is to do cardio and eat clean and healthy.I know it seems cruel and harsh but doing crunches alone with no cardio and poor eating habits will push out your fay and give you a gut (sad face). I find H.I.I.T to be very effective and shedding that fat layer off of my abs . Goal to wash my clothes on my abs jk. I do 15 mins of H.I.I.T at 170rmp and a rough distance of 8 miles six days a week, eat weighed out portions, and do 288 crunches a day six days a week totaling 1152 crunches a week . Once you have dedicated your self to the gym this is a breeze and you will be addicted. Monday and Wednesday I do my main abs and Tuesday Thursday I do my obliques so they get some rest but get pushed hard.The results drive me. I know when your doing them you will be hating life thinking is this worth it but it is my abs look great and when put on the bikini I wanna flaunt them . When I first started crunches planking and such I remember not being able to sneeze or cough with out a tear forming . And just for the record what drove me was a little old lady in her eighties doing crunches in a vodka shirt not breaking a sweat mean while I'm panting and sweating . I know a vodka shirt. She is an inspiration cause she makes it look easy and just shy of drinking a martini while she does it. I don't have a hard core six pack yet but I'm sure the vodka lady does ugh.

As I go I learn more and more about myself and the gym, which is fun and frustrating . I love that the more I read the more I can weed out the bad advice which is abundant.You should pick one maybe two people and stick with there advice only .Other then that you will get too much contradicting advice that will confuse you and take you off course . For internet advice I trust Layne Norton, Michelle Lewin and Web MD . And I have one girlfriend who guides me as well. Layne Norton is incredible he knows more in his one pinkie then I could ever dream to know he is very talented natural body builder ( I know Natural sound odd but he is natural). He has a ph d and several titles under his belt . He is the one who turned me from atkins / paleo diet to healthy rounded balanced eater. I started to understand the need for carbs, protein and fiber. And how too much of any of them would make you bloated, gross and gain weight while too little would stunt your development and cause metabolic damage. He talked about fit click in one of his you tube videos and how it made macro-nutrient tracking so much easier. I tries and at first hated it not understanding why or how to make it work to my advantage . Then like a light switch being flicked on I grasped what he was talking about and how keeping my fiber under 60 g and setting up my calorie intake while finding a ratio that worked for me of carbs, protein and fat never letting my fibre go above 60 g . It was incredible how much better I felt , alive less tired and my muscle development started to speed up I was leaner then ever and I felt amazing. He had a memorizing quality about him. Sometimes less is more I tweeked my work out to four exercise per muscle group, four sets of twelve reps and I was feeling the burn more then ever always keeping no ore then three days between each muscle group it was incredible how sore I was like I upped my weights but nothing but the reps and amount of different exercises had change and very much like H.I.I.T. less was more the results were coming faster and I was shredding down leaner then I had ever been. I love it and I mean who couldn't love the fact that I shortened my workout by a little bit and was able to focus harder on my muscle groups then ever making leaps and bounds, it was a no brainer . As I said before Michelle Lewin is another person who I listen to cause the proof is in the pudding her before and after pictures say it all look her up she is incredible. I take some of her work out ideas and incorporate them in my workout routine so I too can have an amazing Brazilian
