Weekend fun, food prep and second week of my challenge

It is St. Patrick's weekend. On Saturday I went to Savannah, GA, with a few friends. It was fun! There were so many people in green ;-), food stands and beer everywhere and live music.

I never drink beer. I don't like the taste of it so I stayed with water pretty much the whole day. I did enjoy a glass of white wine on a roof top bar and of course I had my treat meal ;-). A slice of pizza and a cupcake (I totally forgot to take a picture).

Some of the girls ordered some koozies ;-)

I got a kid's plastic cup for my water lol

I was tired on Sunday but I still went to the gym for a cardio and abs session and I prepared some food. I am dog sitting for a few days so I won't be home. I packed for two days breakfast (overnight oats with cinnamon and blueberries), nonfat Greek yogurt (I will mix it with baby apple mousse and cinnamon), ground turkey with asparagus, broccoli and sweet potatoes and chicken with mashed cauliflower and brown rise.

They will have eggs for me to cook in the morning's and I also packed some protein powder so I can make shakes.

Are you ready for the second week of my "get bikini ready" challenge?

Work HARD, dream BIG!!!

It is Monday, first day of our 3 month "get bikini ready" challenge

I am super excited to start this challenge! I took this weekend to relax, get my groceries, prep my food and there was also some gym time involved ;-). I am ready for this week and the challenge!!!

After a ton of rain last week we finally had a wonderful warm and sunny weekend. I took my dog to the dog park. He loves it there!

Now I am off to the gym! What are you doing today? Will you workout?
Let's start!

Happy Monday!!!

What is your plan?

My 3 month "get bikini ready" challenge will start on Monday. I want you to take this weekend to think about your plan for the next few months and get ready. What is your goal? How will you reach your goal? What do you maybe have to change to reach your goal?

• First of make sure your goal is realistic. If you make an unrealistic goal you set yourself up for failure.
• Second what is your plan to reach that goal? Will you change your eating habits? Will you work out more often?
• And third how will you start?

My goal:

I want to lean out and hope to see some more definition. 

What I do:

I myself always get most of my groceries on the weekend. I make a dinner plan for the week and get what I need. I also pre-cook some of my meals I will eat during the week on the weekend. This way I always have healthy food ready to eat in case I am busy. 

I also plan my gym time. I check my an my husbands schedule and plan my gym time like an appointment. 

My plan:

I work out 5 times a week right now and do cardio (aside of a warm up) once maybe twice a week. I will increase my cardio to 3 times this week and in the following weeks I even will push it up to 5 times a week. 

I just got my groceries for the week today and will pre-cook some of my meals tomorrow and my workout schedule for the week is done. 

Get ready summer is here sooner then you think ;-)!!!

Work HARD, dream BIG!!!
