Happy St. Patrick's Day!
Today marks ONE Month since I started my Fit2BMom journey and I am so excited with the results I have seen!
In just 4 short weeks I have lost weight, noticed I have more strength and energy during they day and feel much "better" in general all around.
Today also marks the 1st day of the MyFitnessPal Challenge.
I, along with 20+ other women, are participating in a challenge using the MyFitnessPal App.
I have been using it for a week already and am totally in love with how it works.
I love that it tells me what my daily caloric intake needs to be in order to hit my weight loss goals.
I can track my food calories and also track how many calories I lost based on the different activities I have done.
So far it's been a great app and I feel like it will bring me more success in this journey!
The MyFitnessPal Challenge runs through June 1st and the winner, based off a point system, take home a grand CASH prize.
A little extra motivation!
My personal goal is to hit 130lbs by the end of the challenge.
Totally Got This!
Fit2BMom Monday - Week #4
Workout:
-15 Minutes of the 50/50 Circuit (Cardio & Strength)
-10 Minutes Stairs
-30 minutes P90X Yoga
Healthy Activity With (For) My kids:
Today at the Library they had reading time.
Luckily for us, since the weather was so crappy today, they had singing/dancing time along with the stories.
Hunter got in a good 10 minutes of solid shaking and moving!
He LOVED it.
Thanks Story Time!
Healthy Dinner:
Tonight I made a Whole Wheat Ground Turkey lasagna!
The recipe calls for beef but I switched that up and also added a layer of Spinach between each layer of lasagna!
I am not a big lasagna fan but this was actually pretty good!
Daily Goals Met:
-Drank 92oz of water.
-Did Yoga for the 1st time.
-Came in WAY UNDER my daily calorie goal.
-Day 1 of NO SODA success.
(That's right, I have sworn off Soda...at least through the MFP Challenge)
Fun Fact:
Exercising releases endorphins and makes you feel happier!
Workout Song of the Day:
Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz - "Get Low"
(Also a FLASHBACK song!)
Check back in next week for another Fit2BMom Spotlight!
Happy Pi Day friends.
We aren't NERDY enough around this house to actually celebrate this day, but I found it a good excuse to try my hand at a "healthy" version of an apple pie!
I LOVE baking and especially have loved playing with pies.
With my new FIT2BMOM journey I really shouldn't be taking in the calorie count from a slice of pie so I was excited when I came across this substitute recipe!
(Recipe Here)
It's all about proportions people and the wonton crust keeps those regular pie crust calories off the table.
It will however probably hit your sugar limits for the day.
But hey... Apple is a fruit so that's healthy right?
Enjoy!
PS. Have you guys heard of the group Lipstick Lumberjack?
I am kind of in love with their song Full Steam Ahead!
Go listen to it now!!

You're welome!
Happy Friday Readers.
