Day 13 and Out to Eat

Going on memory today.  I forgot to take pictures of what I ate today. Let's hope I have a good memory today.

Breakfast:  2 21 Day Fix cookies and a healthy pumpkin spice latte (I found on chocolatecoveredkatie on Pinterest)

Breakdown: 2 yellow

Snack:  almonds

Breakdown: 1 blue

Lunch:  Choc Shakeology and strawberries/grapes

Breakdown: 1 red and 1 purple

Snack:  almonds

Breakdown: 1 blue (over again, I think I want to petition to change this to equal 2 a day)

Dinner:  we went out and I chose wisely.  Buffalo grilled chicken salad and I brought my own dressing

Breakdown: 2 green and 1 red

Snack: Strawberries

Breakdown: 1/2 purple

Cardio Fix and I really worked up a sweat!  Can't believe it's been almost two full weeks.  My weight loss has stalled the past two days but that's ok.  I'm closer to my goal weight and I know as a fitness professional, the closer you get to your goal weight the slower the weight comes off.  It also could have something to do with my extra blue container.  Hummmmm, maybe I should go with only once a day.  Ok.  I'll try the next few days.  Wish me luck!

Day 11 on 21 Day Fix!

Halfway point.  Can't believe I'm halfway thru this program!  It's amazingly easy to follow and I'm not starving!

Snack:  Thin mint Shakeology (choc Shakeology, 8-10 oz water, mint extract to taste)

Breakdown:  1 red

Again I went over on my blue.  This is the hardest part for me.  I love my almonds and I love my cheese.  Not to mention avocado too.  Must figure out how to only have one of these items a day.  Eeeekkkkk!

Workouts are still challenging me and I love it!

Hope everyone has a great Memorial Day tomorrow!  God Bless our fallen soldiers!

Day 7 and Tested

Last day of week 1 and I was tested.  We went out to eat with my sister.  Sure I would have lived to get the four cheese honey chicken Mac n cheese at Applebee's.  But I can only imagine what kind of calories are in that meal.  And I have a bikini hanging in my closet that I want to wear this summer!  So I picked some thing off the lighter menu!  Gooooo me!

1st Day on 21 Day Fix

So I know I played with starting 21 Day Fix some last month but now I'm going for the full 21 days!

I'm so excited to complete this program.  I've seen some friends really rock this program and lose anywhere from 8-15 pounds over the 21 days!  I can't wait to see my results!

I'm also stopping my Turbo Fire workouts and doing the 21 Day Fix workouts so I can give you accurate results from the whole program!

If you don't know what the 21 Day Fix is you can read about it here www.teambeachbody.com/amyfreemon but I will give you a little break down.

21 Day Fix is a portion control program.  It comes with color coded containers that you fill up with food that goes in that container.  Each container is assigned a food group.

Yellow is carbs

Red is protein

Purple is fruit

Green is vegetables

Blue is fats

Orange is seeds

Breakfast today was eggs over asparagus with half of a whole wheat English muffin and strawberries

Breakdown is 1 red, 1 green, 1 yellow and 1 purple

This was so filling I never had a snack in between breakfast and lunch.

Lunch was sugar cookie vanilla Shakeology.  1 packet vanilla Shakeology, 8-10 oz water and 1/4 tsp of  princess cake and cookie extract (I got off amazon)

Breakdown was 1 red

Afternoon snack I had cashews which is equal to 1 blue

Dinner was a salad with grilled chicken, apple and pecans.

It was so good!

My workout today was the cardio fix.  It was 30 minutes of calorie torching cardio!  It was an amazing workout!

Looking forward to day 2!

Yummy Healthy Eats

I've got two yummy recipes for you today!

Breakfast:  Kashi Almond Flax Vanilla Shakeology!

I used a cup of almond milk, 1 pack vanilla Shakeology, 1/3 cup Kashi Almond Flax cereal and some ice!  Blended in my handy dandy vitamix!  Oh soooo good!  It was so thick, it reminded me of a cookout milkshake!  And all under 300 calories!  Perfect breakfast!  

You can learn more about Shakeology here www.myshakeology.com/amyfreemon 

Dinner:  Spaghetti Squash with shrimp,  marinated mushrooms, carrots and a salad

I cut the spaghetti squash down the middle and then baked it for 40 min (cut side down) at 350,

Then I shredded the squash with a fork.  Very easy to do!  I threw some thawed shrimp in the sauce as it warming up.  It wasn't pasta but it worked for me as a replacement while I'm trying to lose those last few pounds!

21 Day Fix Starts on May 18!

So I've played around with the 21 Day fix containers for the past month or so.  Well it's almost pool and beach time so it's time to get serious.

I'm starting the 21 Day Fix for the full 21 days on May 18!

If you want to join me I will be running an online challenge group on Facebook!  You can find me on Facebook: Amy Kleinmaier Freemon

The 21 Day Fix is an awesome program that teaches proper portion control with these awesome containers!  You get a different color for each food group and then depending on your calorie range you get a certain number of each container per day.  At first look the containers look small, but when you start filling them up.....you will be amazed by the amount of food you get.

You can lose up to 15 pounds in the 21 days!  It also comes with a complete workout program that includes 30 minute workouts.  The lady that created the program is a fitness competitor.  If anyone knows how to get bikini ready it's a fitness competitor!

I'm excited and can't wait to get started!  I'm so close to my goal weight and I plan on hitting it!

You can get your own copy here www.teambeachbody.com/amyfreemon 

Check out these results from someone who completed the program!

My P90X3 Results

So I realized I never put my before and after pic up from P90X3!  And since it is on sale this month in a challenge pack I wanted to share my results!

Tada.......

This is what 30 minutes a day, drinking Shakeology and healthy eating will get you!

I'm still working on the lower half but my Abs and arms got there with this workout!

I think if I had cleaned up my diet even more my legs would have slimmed down even more.  But genetics plays a big roll in my lower half!  My family has curves.  Pear shape curves!  The booty, hips and thighs are the hardest for me to lose.

Thus the reason I'm combining Turbo Fire with Brazil Butt Lift for the next 8 weeks!  Turbo Fire is also on sale this month!

And I'm eating the 21 Day Fix way.  Portion control and the right amount of calories for me!

Foiled Workout Plans

So I've not had a good week workout wise.  I was not feeling good on Wed night so I skipped Abs.  Thursday I had a late night at work so I didn't get my Brazil Butt Lift workout in (so glad I got up early for my cardio)!  Friday I was spending quality time with my son and we got into a Bates Motel marathon and it was 11 before I knew it and I was way too tired to try to workout then.  Saturday and Sunday.   Well that's a whole different story.  We had a water leak a few weeks back (still haven't found where the water came from).  Well my hubby finally pulled up carpet and behold we have found black mold.  He spent most of the weekend tearing out walls and cleaning mold.  And guess which room this has affected?  If you answered my workout room you would be right.  And also my laundry room.

Sigh........

So I didn't get my workout in those two days either.

Not working out makes me sad.  Not as sad as seeing all my walls bring torn out and wondering how in the world we will fix all this though.

So this upcoming week and weeks forward till the rooms are fixed, I will be working out in my living room.  Not an ideal place but I will make it work.  I have too!  Not working out is not an option for me.

It's also going to be another beautiful week and I plan on getting outside and walking!  A lot!  

Have a glorious week and I pray I will get my workouts in this week!

Strawberry Milkshake I Mean Shakeology, or How About a Frosty!

I made a yummy strawberry Shakeology today!  It really tasted like I was sitting in the ice cream shoppe drinking a real strawberry milkshake.

1pack strawberry Shakeology

1 cup water

1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk

Frozen fruit blend (strawberries, mango, and peaches)

Yesterday I made a frosty!

1 pack chocolate Shakeology

1 cup water

1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk

1/2 frozen banana

Both of these shakes are great for meal placement and come in for less than 250 calories each!

If you want to make your own Shakeology shakes you can order some here www.myshakeology.com/amyfreemon
