MOB GOES FLABBLESS ... DARE TO GO BARE

This M.O.B. is kind of disgruntled. The thing I keep reminding myself is that I'm just normal, and no matter what kind of quest I am on next there will be little challenges, large challenges and some doozer challenges. This one is a doozer.

I have been really impressed with my weight loss, no, let me rephrase, shocked at my weight loss, I'm down another 3 pounds this morning to 157.6! It was so easy to take it off. In fact, it has never been that easy. Like I said, the last 30 days flew by, it was unreal. Maybe it's because I was flying through my program and I wasn't stressed out over what I was doing. Now the clencher here is, I knew all along if I was putting more effort into the fitness portion of things, I would have lost even more weight. Truth is, I wanted well defined arms for the wedding, and a nice butt and a flat belly. I lost weight in all of those areas but they are still well ... FLABBY.

And ... I still am not thrilled at looking at myself in the mirror without clothes on ... gotta get real.

The thing is, now I feel REALLY motivated to keep on going. Like I said in the MOB results Monday, I don't want to stop, I want to challenge myself to see how far I can go. Great thing is, now I have running mates to do it with me. Isagenix, the company that I get my products from offers a program called The Isabody Challenge for everyone using the Isagenix products the chance to compete for 16 weeks to see how determined you are to transform your bodies. The great thing is, no one is a loser ... we are all getting in shape and making a concerted effort to live a healthy life. At 16 weeks, it will be well ingrained on what the life looks like and I will have transformed my whole way of eating and fitness, and I'm thrilled at the prospect. Truth is I've been sitting around for too long.

The Isabody Challenge

Here is my motivation:

NUMBER ONE: To have the incentive to live a healthier life, I finally want to lose the FLAB! Me and FLAB ... we is gettin' a DIVORCE!

NUMBER TWO: No matter what I do, at the end of the challenge everyone receives $200.00 worth of Isagenix product, that's a month of food for me. EVERYONE that enters, gets this!

NUMBER THREE: Motivating others to join me in getting healthy and increasing our happiness in life as well as our longevity!

NUMBER FOUR: I need another goal to work towards, the wedding will be over this weekend and I need to set my sights on a new point in the horizon.

I want to state here that EVERYONE that is using the Isagenix product can enter this contest, and you don't have to aspire to be a fitness competitor! We all just need to get moving a bit more!

THE EATING PLAN:

I am starting off with the 30 Day Fat Burning package and will begin a program called the RACE TO MAINTENANCE! It will continue to encourage weight loss and lean body mass. The program adds more food aka calories so that your metabolism is working even harder, therefore burning more fat and flab. I will still do Cleanse days on the same schedule as I am already on, and I really look forward to them. I am starting two back to back today and tomorrow, preparing for the wedding and the onslaught of fabulous Mexican food and well ... Vodka. Haven't had a cocktail in a long time, definitely not since I started this journey, not even sure if I will enjoy it! Watch for MORE ON THE MOB ACTIVITY PAGE.

So yes, you heard it more food! Truthfully eating more will be difficult, that's been my whole problem in the first place. I am starting my second 30 day goal and will continue until I reach the weight I feel I want to be. I am not setting a goal weight here as I am SO HAPPY that I'm losing any weight at all, that's its all a bonus!

My Fitness Plan:

Well, I'm going to start off slow, things that I have at home that I can use, and of course the beautiful weather, now is a great time to get outside and get moving in the sunshine! Now this part is going to be very challenging for me as I AM NOT AN ATHLETE. I have had spurts where I was a gym fiend, liked to be active, lost weight, but then I lost my motivation, to cut to the chase, I was LAZY. Not only was I physically lazy, but I was Mentally lazy and let my lower ego tell me I could quit, that I didn't really have to go to the gym, that I didn't have to go for a walk, that negative voice in my head no longer exists. Truth is it doesn't have to exist in yours either. Be Strong!
 
I will have more on this part of the process next week after the wedding as I have more exciting news!!!!

So please ... All wanna be M.O.B. Squaders ... join the rest of us and enter the CHALLENGE with me!!!!! I DARE YOU!
