bringdownthepounds: 5 lbs might not seem like a lot, but clearly, it is. So, even if you only lost 1 lb this week, or even 0.1, it’s a change in the right direction, so try not to get down on yourself. Be proud of all you’ve done :)

Day 1.

Today I started my journey to getting fit! 

Last night I went grocery shopping and stocked up on a lot of really great ingredients. This morning I prepared a ton of ingredients for my lunches so that I wont have to chop veggies, etc every day. It definitely makes eating healthy a lot easier to stick to! It’s easy to go grab a bag something unhealthy, because it doesn’t take preparation. (most people don’t make their own candy bars! haha) So, now when I go to have lunch, my lettuce, tomato, onion, and chicken is all prepared and chopped and all I have to do is put it in my bowl! So easy :)

My lunch today was:

  • romaine lettuce
  • cherry tomatoes (chopped)
  • green onions (chopped)
  • pan-grilled chicken (prepared with onion powder and pepper for extra flavor)
  • mozzarella cheese
  • balsamic dressing
  • big glass of water

After lunch, I did the chest & back P90X DVD along with the Ab Ripper X P90X DVD. I then had a vanilla protein shake. I felt like one of those massive bodybuilder guys drinking it hahahaha 

Today was difficult work out wise, but I have faith in myself! This was only the first day, so I shouldn’t expect myself to be a pro already. I don’t see eating healthy as something I’ll struggle with, so that’s not worrying me at all. I feel like changing my eating habits alone will drastically change my body. I’m going to continue with the P90X DVDs, but I’m going to be using them more as a guide to proper form, good exercises, etc. I don’t have tons and tons of weight to lose, I just want to tone up. I definitely don’t want to look like a body builder in 90 days either. I just want to be a healthier version of what I am now. I feel like eating healthy along with weight training and some cardio, I’ll see the outcome I am looking for.
