Preparing For Your Fitness/Exercise Program

Now that we have got the basics covered, lets get ready to begin this journey!!

Grocery list? If you find you are having a difficult time making a list of filling foods, here's my list of the main items I purchase for the week: eggs, milk 1%, Greek yogurt, black berries, blue berries, strawberries, bannanas, apples, oranges, grapefruit, broccoli, sweet onions, jalapenos, green peppers, zucchini, yellow squash, avacados, carrots, spinach or Dole baby spinach, lettuce, Italian dressing, seasoning (love McCormick), pork tenderloin, chicken, bacon, hamburger, pistachios, trail mix (my fav is Planter's NUT-rition Energy Mix), dried apricots, popcorn, black beans (canned, I usually get a couple different flavors), spinach wraps, lunch meat, provolone cheese, colby jack cheese, tortillas, wheat thins, triscuits, whole wheat bread, whole wheat English muffins, Lipton green tea, Symphony toffee bar, Bit O' Honey, and Kellogg's Frosted Mini Wheats. Get good foods, the more fresh the better!

Challenge yourself!! You can do this!! If you want to do more advanced moves in your workouts, I suggest you add weights to your current workouts. Don't have a dumbbell, or medicine ball? Use large cans of soup or rinse out your gallon of milk rather than throw it away, then fill it with water ~ one gallon = 8 pounds!

Stay focused!! Write down your goals or make a collage. I am a very visual person and I love lingerie!! Cut out pix of your favorite lingerie and hang it up where you will see it every day. If it's better for you to write down your goals, hang them where you can see them. I like to hang my favorite motivational quotes on post it notes through the house. Work out with friends! Whatever you want to do to stay focused and keep yourself motivated!

Give yourself some credit! You are taking steps in a healthy direction. One of the worst things you could do right now is beat yourself up. Your fire's already been ignited ~ lets throw fuel on your flame!!
