I can’t believe the 3rd week of my Omron Fitness Challenge is over and the 4th week is beginning. It’s been a challenging and fun 3 weeks and I am loving the changes. I went from never working out to working out 4-6 times a week. I also changed my eating habits and try to eat healthier and lower calorie meals. I also cut back on the amount of soda I drink. I try to eat at home as much {Read More}
Drinking LOTS of water is key to weight loss, staying hydrated, and removing impurities from your body. If you’re not a big water drinker then plain water can get boring, but if you add the right things they give it some flavor and help to detox your body. Lemon: Lemon water makes for a powerful detox drink; lemon juice helps to cleanse and alkalize the body. Add one thinly sliced lemon to a large pitcher, or squeeze fresh lemon juice {Read More}
Pin ItWeek 2 is over and week 3 is beginning in my Omron Fitness challenge. The time is flying by and I am feeling great. I have never been one for working out, but I am actually starting to like it. OK I lied, I don’t like working out. It’s painful and I’m achy all the time, but I love the after feeling of working out and the small results I’m starting to see. Last week I talked about using the {Read More}
It’s no secret that I am trying to lose weight and get healthier this year. One of the ways I am making that possible is by having low calorie, healthy, and delicious meals on hand. I tend to forget to eat and then I am left starving and wanting something that is quick to make. Lean Cuisine meals are perfect for those times I need quick lunch or dinner or any lunch/dinner really and skinny cow ice cream is the {Read More}
Pin ItMy first week on the Omron Fitness Challenge is over and I couldn’t be happier with how it’s going. This week was a learning process for me and a bit of a struggle. Going from not working out and eating not the best foods all the time takes some work and can be a challenge. This past week I worked on eating healthier and other then a few slip ups I did pretty good. I am a soda addict, but {Read More}
Last week I announced that I was going to be an Omron Fitness Ambassador. Starting today through February 10th. Each Sunday I’ll post weekly updates on my progress, weight loss, and whatever else is going through my cookie deprived mind. Since this is the first week I don’t have a weight loss update, but I can tell you my goals. Each day I’ll be wearing my Omron 323-U Pedometer. It tracks the amount of steps I take each day and {Read More}
A few weeks back I applied to be an #iheartOmron ambassador. I never thought I would actually get picked, since I knew a bunch of people were applying. I had actually forgotten about it until Friday night when someone posted the link to the people who would be chosen and someone told me Congrats. I was like “what is she talking about??” So while sitting in the airport and after 10 minutes of trying to get the page to load, I scrolled {Read More}
It’s been 4 weeks since I started Nutrisystem… This week I had no loss and no gain. I’m happy about the no gain, but I know I can do better. This week I am definitely going to step up my game. I am waiting for month 2′s food to arrive sometime this week. The first month I did a variety of foods I thought I would like. I liked most of them and some of them not so much, so {Read More}
Gym membership are expensive and finding the time to go is hard. Another draw back is there aren’t any gyms around me. They are all about 15-20 minutes away and I don’t want to drive that far just to work out… I hate working out, but I know its 1. good for me and 2. helps with losing weight. I know there are millions of DVD’s like Jillian Michaels, Zumba, and P90x, but I wanted something that I could do {Read More}
I can’t believe I just finished week 3! Where is the time going?? I started the week off sick and when I am sick all I want is comfort foods, medicine, and sleep. I did do better with my NS meals this week, but was still thrown off a little. Week 4 is going to be better since I am no longer sick and I am ready to jump back in 100%! Nutrisystem is teaching me lots of great things {Read More}
