Week 2!

This is yesterday, week 2, of our "FIT for the 4th" challenge. It's amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it: I did a Turbo HIIT workout, Turbo abs, and then my wonderful husband helped me with an intense lift. I haven't d-lifted in months, and he tricked me into a heavier weight. A few circuits and I ended up deadlifting 185-5x for 7 sets. Whew! My back feels it today, that's for sure! The food pics: 2 post-workout shakes (one after turbo and one after lift), Ezekiel bread (gluten free!) with PB and a banana, and to increase my protein: cottage cheese with pink himalayan sea salt and cayenne pepper. Yumm!! 3 weeks left: 2 lbs down, 18 to go!

Day 4!

Day 4! Bailey got tuckered out from Turbo and our long walk :)

-Shakeo for breakfast

-Jalapeno lime shrimp for lunch

-Chobani for snack

-Seafood salad with spinach for dinner

Shakeology: the healthiest (tastiest) meal of the day!

Chocolate-Strawberry Cheesecake Shake!
This deserves a post of it's own: My beachbody coach Kelsey Shackley introduced me to it:
1 scoop chocolate Shakeology
4 strawberries
1/4 packet no-sugar no-fat cheesecake jello mix
8 oz Almond milk (unsweetened)
OMG to die for!

catch-up post

My new favorite snack: 1/4 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt with berries and dark chocolate chips!
I also added a little bit of stevia to sweeten it up :) SOOOO good!

AhMAZing sushi rolls I had the other night! Tom's parents took us out
for a fun day in the hills and dinner :) #solucky

OK so one of the girls in my challenge group posted this recipe, and I'm too curious not to try everything
at least once:
1/2 c cottage cheese
1 tbsp chocolate protein powder (shakeology)
2 tbsp of peanut butter
It wasn't half bad but the texture is sure something I'm going to have to get used to!

Bailey was tuckered out after TurboFire! She's my little workout buddy :)
