Are You Moving Yet?

Well...are you moving yet? Have you started doing something positive for your health? Have you been consistent or hit & miss? Even if it's hit and miss, don't be discouraged! It's better than sitting on the couch eating Cheetos and drinking diet Coke. :)

There will always be things that happen during the week that will throw you off track. Family issues, sickness, work schedules, kids sports, helping kids with homework, etc. Don't let this discourage you and cause you to give up! If you feel like you've fallen off course, just start up again. This is Body for LIFE, not just a 12 week challenge. Find a routine that works for you and work that routine! The results will come in time.

I just completed Week 4 of my challenge. I have only dropped a couple of pounds, but have lost 2 inches off my waist and 4% body fat. I also took my 4 week pics on Saturday and compared them to my starting pics and can definitely see a change. Now...it might make you want to hurl to think of taking a pic of your body, but taking progress pics every 4 weeks will actually encourage and fuel you! Changes you might not see on the scale or in the mirror will show up in photos. Use this powerful tool to push yourself to take things to the next level! And remember, no one has to see your pics except you.

Now, on to this week for me...I'm going to have to tweek my cardio w/o's now since I broke my treadmill on Saturday morning. I was near the end of my 20 min HIIT workout and as I was running at 8mph, I started feeling the belt slipping under my feet! With every step, the belt would stop for a second, then start back up as I lifted for my next stride. Thankfully I didn't crash and burn! But my treadmill is RIP now. But I can't let this mishap stop my progress. I'll find another method of HIIT and keep going!

If you haven't started moving yet, plan something today and do it! :)
