Hey ya'll! I am currently in my week 3 of my new training program, and for some reason wks 3 and usually 4 always seem to be the hardest for me.
Last week was insane! I was so busy! I bought a new car last tuesday! My very first nearly new car! Sold my old car, gained a new client, went to class school where I had to give a presentation on selling, worked late, cleaned, grocery shopped, and cooked! It was a crazy week for me, but a great one!
My new car is a 2011, white, Kia Forte-SX 5door hatchback- and I am in <3 with it! This is my very first nearly new car-and I am very proud of it!
Today began wk 3 of my improvement season and it was rough. First off, I must admit: I have gotten a little off key with my November goals as well...Waking up is getting harder and harder, with the late nights I have been putting in with work and school, getting to bed on time just hasnt been happening, and that makes me a late riser.... So I am disappointed to say, I have not been consistant with my 6am wake up time. I still usually wake by 7:30 am at the Latest! I will not give up on this goal, I have just had some minor set backs.... life happens, and I need to pick myself back up and get back on track! Today I awoke at 6:30am, close to my goal time, but no cigar! Tomorrow and the rest of this week, will hopefully be better with my early rising.
Anyhow- It's THANKGIVING week! I couldn't be more excited to have some time off work to spend with my family!
I am truely thankful for all I have, my friends, my health, my oppurtunities, my fitness, my fiance, my little brother, my job, my clients, my new car, and so much more!
I hope you all take this week to really enjoy all that we are blessed with and be truely Thankful for the ones around you.
Although Thankgiving is formed around a Feast, please do not let the Feast take away from the quality time you can spend with the ones you love! Play games, get active, do a Turkey day Trott, get to the gym early(Yes, they are Open!! Usually till Noon, unless your at a 24hr place) Set a new HEALTHY & FIT tradition with the family!
Please tell me about how you made this holiday a Healthy one!
Talk to ya'll soon!!! Xo

Change is in the Air!!
Hey all! It's Wednesday, and I am feeling pretty darn good!! I can already see the CHANGES in my body from my new program, and I am loving it! Pic's will come soon!
Today's cardio was a little rough, I had a sharp shooting pain through my Left knee during my first set, and I had to modify the rest of my session...a little disheartening for me, but I would rather Train Smart, than acquire an injury! The important part is that I finished:)
Some of my goals for November are: Wake at 6am every morning! Give 110% to my new program! Push past my LIMITS everyday-so next time will be easier~!
So far, and I know it is only the 7th, but I am holding TRUE and STRONG to my goals! I have actually been a slight over achiever too;) I woke up at 5:30am Sun-today! So proud of myself! This is soooooo HUGE for me, because I am NOT nor have I ever been a morning person! I am really trying to force my body into making this my new routine! So far I love it! Last night was a little rough though. I began taking a night class from 6pm-9:30pm at school (in Kenosha, a 45min drive)! Since I have been going to bed at 9:30pm, it was really hard for me to stay awake so late last night... and a Full 8hrs of sleep is SO very important to my progress and health! But I need this course, and its advanced...just 6more classes to get through. I just hope this doesn't alter my morning routine for Wednesdays! It didn't today- but like I said- I am so not a morning person, so I will try not to slip up! :)
I hope you all Exercised your right to VOTE yesterday! I did:)
As far as pushing my limits and giving 110% That is going perfectly as well-besides my knee situation today.
Here is what my hands look like after just 3 days of training!
Some people may think calluses are gross- I think they are just proof of how hard your willing to work! Besides, no one sees the inside or your hands anyhow, especially when the rest of you looks so good! ;)
Hope Everyone is Training Hard!

A New Beginning-Day 1
Today 11/5/12 is the Day I begin embarking on a new fitness journey! I am so excited to train with a new coach and be apart of one of the best training Teams within the Fitness industry!
As I embark on this new Journey, I hope to keep this blog alive with all my UPS and downs during my new journey!
Today began Day 1, and I must say I am FULL of energy and excitement even though my workouts this morning nearly made me pass out! I have not sweated so much during my own workout! It was insane, but I felt so accomplished once I completed everything day 1 had for me!!
Yesterday, I began my food prep- Cooked all my food, so I am prepared for the week ahead! This is KEY if you want to succeed with ANY fitness goals- You MUST be prepared, if your not, your setting yourself up for failure! Be prepared my friends, and My meals are so delicious- and let me tell ya, I am eating WELL! ;) Steak and eggs for breakfast! hheeeyyoo! lol
I'll try and keep everyone posted especially with the holidays coming up, and progress pics!
:) Follow me on Facebook as well!
