I was on Spring Break this last week with my kiddos and while my main focus for was to be extremely strict with my nutrition, I also took some time to get out and have fun with my kids!!!

So back to my week...I had been really good with my workouts but had been lazier on my eating and not focusing on my portion sizes.  So this past week was a refined week.  I actually did something I NEVER do because I honestly stick to it one day and fall off it.  But I knew I wanted to get super strict so I started writing down everything I was eating on My Fitness Pal.  And I gotta say it opened my eyes to how much I had been "snitching" and not knowing it!  Ouch!




So I've got a pretty big trip planned this summer to Europe and I'm not at the goal I want to be for that trip…so I've gotten super strict and I'm liking the results I'm seeing!

This week I lost 2.5 lbs and stayed committed to my eating plan, and I mean I stayed SUPER committed to my eating plan!

My biggest VICTORY for this week was my Girl's Night Out with my MIL and sisters-in-law and we went to a Mexican Restaurant and I checked out the menu before hand and had a plan of what I was eating.  I decided before hand that I was going for the company and not for the food.  I did NOT touch ONE SINGLE CHIP (seriously, I LOVE tortilla chips and can't stop when I start…so I didn't start!).  I got a salad with chicken for dinner and water to drink.  An after dinner cup of coffee and called it quits!  I felt GREAT afterward and not stuffed or regretful of what I ate!!  Whoop whoop!!

T25 - Week 1 Women's Progress Update - Meal Plan for Week 2

t25

I got through my first week of Focus T25 and I absolutely LOVE this program.  I did it back in August of last year thru October and had great results.  And I have to be completely honest with you...I'm far from perfect in my health and fitness journey.  Although I have been consistently working out and eating clean, I have also been going through some different sort of health problems over the last couple months.  This has caused me a lot of stress and while I thought I had been eating perfectly, now that I step back and look at it, I realized that I had gotten more lazy than I thought and was adding little indulgences here and there and as a result...gained some weight I wasn't happy with!  Can you relate?  Well...I'm just like you!  I'm not perfect...I'm still on my journey and just a real life human who slips up from time to time!



So, side tangent completed...back to my Week 1 T25 update!!

Like I said I LOVE this program...Here was my week schedule:

Monday: Alpha Cardio - This is just a fun workout...it goes fast and is high paced workout.  There's a lot of jumping but Shaun T gives you a great modified version of each move.  Let me tell you...my calves are really tired after this workout!

Focus T25 Day 1, Alpha Cardio

Tuesday: Alpha Speed 1.0 - Ok I think this is seriously one of my favorite of his workouts!  Speed 1.0 speaks it all!  It's fast but it's great because he mixes in stretching and stability throughout this whole workout!  So after being sore, it feels really great to stretch within the workout!

Focus T25 Alpha Speed 1.0


Wednesday: Alpha Total Body Circuit - I'll be honest...this one is tough.  It's not my favorite, but I do like it.  However, it is hard and I'm really tired and sore afterward!

Thursday: Alpha Ab Intervals - I love working my abs and this is a great one to do this.  Shaun T is all about the CORE throughout this entire program and he really focuses on reminding you to "focus" on your core and tighten your core.  This is a mix of ab work and intermittent cardio bursts!  Super fun!

Core Focus - T25
Friday: Alpha Lower Focus & Alpha Cardio - DOUBLES DAY!!!  Yes...you have a doubles day!! It's tough but totally doable!  However, I was really tired doing the Alpha Cardio for the 2nd workout, I had to modify some of the moves because I was sore and tired but I got through it and finished week 1 of T25!!  Wahoo!!



T25 Lower Focus and Cardio


I stuck strict to my meal plan, and allowed a "cheat meal" for Saturday night.  I was perfect on my meal plan throughout the day and at dinner had the appropriate portion sizes of each of my food items, but then added in 4 oz of red wine!!!  YES ONLY 4 oz...I even measured it out!  That is SHOCKING for me to measure it out, but I did...then I was done when the 4 oz was finished!!  It felt really rewarding to only have what I portioned out!

I also stayed committed to drinking my Shakeology each day...which, I've got to say, WOW what a difference that makes throughout the day.  I had run out of it for a couple weeks and started back up with it and I notice such a difference in my cravings throughout the day, they aren't there as much as they used to be, and for my energy level, I don't get that 2pm slump like I noticed myself getting when I wasn't drinking it for those 2 weeks.  It is amazing the difference that Shakeology has made for me each day!!  LOVE LOVE my Shakeology.

Results of week 1:  3 pounds lost!!  Whaoo!  I don't expect that to happen each week, I think it was a lot of water weight, however I'm happy that it was like that!

So here's to another great week starting this week!  I'm geared up and ready to go strong this week, sticking to my meal plan and workout plan!
