Day 1 - Nov 15th, 2010

Here we go day 1!! Some may be wondering what this is, as everyone does know.. I work for It Works! (love it by the way!) and was picked to do a challenge of getting fit! Totally excited because this will help me eat and cook better along with getting in shape. The challenge will consist of 8 weeks. We're not suppose to be telling anyone about this because we're going to be presenting it at Conference in Florida in January. So this blog is just a diary for me.. and I'll show it to everyone once complete! As much as I don't want to I'm going to post my before measurements here because I KNOW I'm going to have awesome results that I can show later!

It's currently 4:45pm, so far I've had breakfast (which was late because we were up crazy late with sick kiddos so it threw me off) so I'm currently having my smoothie, and then will have dinner around 7 tonight. I'm saving my essential bar for after dinner. Not sure if that is allowed yet, but I get nightly munchies.. and well.. I'm not caving for other "snacks."

Anyways, today has been pretty good. For breakfast I had scrambled eggs (2 egg whites, 1 whole egg) turkey bacon, and 1 cup of strawberries. Was pretty yummy and filing! My smoothie, is not so tasty but I'm getting through it. In it is 1 cup of frozen cherries, 1 scoop of our protein mix, 1 cup of milk, 2 scoops of Greens & some ice.

I haven't encountered too many problems so far. I thought it'd be hard because the kids snack off and on, along with my husband. But I've been okay. It's been kind of tough having to fix food for the kids.. but my whole family isn't on this "eat healthy" kick yet.. but I'll get them all there! Water.. water is not my friend! I'm trying to work on it.. I NEVER drink water.. so if I drink 1 glass of water a day I'm doing good. However I discovered Fiji water.. and it's pretty delicious!

Okay that's all for today! Talk more tomorrow!

*update:
8:30pm had a delicious dinner! Lettuce & spinach salad with broccoli and beef tenderloin. Delicious! Used evoo dressing on the salad.. and used garlic cloves, basil & oregano to season the beef. Yum!! Now I have to wait for the kids to go to sleep so that I can do my workout! Then we're on to tomorrow!!
