Breakfast – Muscle Mike protein shake
Snack – Rice crackers, hummus
Lunch – Chicken stir fry (prepared yesterday, so it was quick and yummy!)
Snack – Missed because I let work control my afternoon
Dinner – ED Chili

It feels good to not have anything un-planned or greasy on the list!  I spent quite a bit of time yesterday prepping veggies and cooking chicken and other foods just to make sure I was ready to start the challenge.  No workout today because I was hurting so bad where my surgery site was.  It is just in a horrible spot.  I am going to have to start very slow, and work toward getting stronger.  I am excited, and looking forward to Day 2!

Starting 2012, I am in the worst shape I have been in a few years. The feeling in my belly is horrible. The extra weight in my thighs is literally weighing me down. Although I have not seen my weight increase much, I know that I am totally out of shape because of the way I feel and my lack of tone. This is going to be the year that I change my life! When I am fit, and eating right, it not only helps my children but also my husband as well. With that said, here are my starting stats:

Starting Stats:
Age – 30
Height – 5′ 0″
Weight – 103 pounds
Waist – 25″
Belly – 29 1/2″
Hips – 32″
Butt – 36″
Thigh – 19.75″
Arm – 9.5″
Chest – 30.5″

Plan my food – I would like to have everything I eat planned, including my cheat meals. I need to take the time before to help make sure I am making supportive choices for my body. This also takes the “What are we having for dinner” stress, and eliminates it.

Muscle tone – I want to look in the mirror, and see the tone of my muscle. Right now, I look and see where I am getting fatter, and I don’t want to feel that anymore. I want to feel good about my body when I look in the mirror, and seeing muscle tone always helps. I also want my legs to feel tones again. There are two places that I gain fat first and that is my tummy and my legs. My legs feel so heavy right now, I can’t even stand the feeling of running up the stairs.

Clothing – I want to fit comfortably into my clothing, and not have to suck in to zip or button anything. I have nothing right now that fits me like it should, and I am looking forward to the day where I feel good in my clothing.

Food Log – Logging what I am eating always helps me see if I am staying on track or not. I also seems to hurt a little more when you have to write it down.

Its time to get it done, and reach my goals for once. I am thankful for FYM and am honored to be a part of the 2012 NYTC challenge.

Let me know your comments

Here is some information from Holly Rigsby:

“I feel like my search has ended!”

“I have fallen for so many faulty fitness programs, eaten more “diet” food than I want to think about, and have never had real and lasting results. Thank you, Holly, for the simplicity, the “realness” of the FYM program.

I know now that it is truly possible to become more fit and healthy and this NYTC is going to be a terrific way to start my journey!”

~ Kathy

“THANK YOU!!!

You are always such a motivating person and you have definitely sparked something in me over the past 6 months since I joined ClubFYM…Funny too how some friends were asking me what “diet” I was on and I felt almost insulted by the thought that they could think I would dishonour my body by abusing it just for the sake of looking good.

I was proud to explain that I’ve cleaned up my act through healthy eating and exercise and NOT the latest crazy fad. My health will not suffer at the hands of vanity.”
~ Mandy

“I am so excited and pumped for this challenge now!! (pumping fist in air). I just wrote down on my index card by my computer
“Choices that take care of ME!”
~ Rachel

~~~~~~~~~~

“I have had a fuzzy goal to “get healthy” for about 3 years since a doctors visit suggested that I needed to lose weight and get my triglycerides, etc. under control. But then after I start a diet or start exercising again, I get sidetracked by being consumed with losing X-number of lbs or fitting into a certain size.

If you can help me focus again on being healthy, then this challenge will have been well worth it regardless of lbs lost, etc.

I LOVED what you said about, “Take the steps that take care of you”.

It made me think that if I can take care of TODAY and not try to make up for yesterday or work for tomorrows results then all of my todays will add up to tomorrows results in a healthy way without all the added stress, guilt, killing myself, etc. Again, WOW!!!!”
~ Karen

~~~~~~~~~~

“Making choices that are healthy for me… this is SO powerful! To me it means that we focus on being mindful of the choices we make every moment - living in the moment and focusing on improving our choices and ourselves RIGHT NOW. Not just regarding our food and exercise, but our thoughts and actions in each moment.

Anyone who is in ClubFYM and has CHOSEN to do the NYTC has already made a HUGE healthy choice!!
~ Deb

~~~~~~~~~~

“I love, love, love the theme of this challenge and the new re-focus for all! I agree it’s like you went in and read the minds of so many…focusing on health, making healthier choices, using our body for good things, giving our bodies good things and balancing the whole mind/body/spirit connection.

That’s when we radiate health, exude health and inspire others to want to be healthy! The inner creates the outer…always!”
~ Lisa Marie

~~~~~~~~~~

I have tried so many ways to lose weight
- online programs, in person programs, you name it -I’ve wasted my money on it. But never have I felt that someone is so committed to my success until I came to Club FYM. And more importantly, I can tell that your motivation for our success is not for your own glory or bank account but because you truly care about us. The only way I know how to say thank you is to be committed to making myself a better, Healthier, me.”
~ Julie H

Your Friend and Coach,

Holly Rigsby

So, what I found that I need is accountability and a community of people to support me, and help hold me accountable. I had this for a while, but drifted away because I “didn’t have the money”. Now looking back, I made a huge mistake.

I have now re-joined Club FYM (Fit Yummy Mummy). This is a site full of community, accountability, and loaded with more information than I could ever need to be successful.

Now, Club FYM is a wonderful thing to join, but sorry guys, it is for ladies only

If you are a male, and are looking for something just like what I mentioned, check out Turbulence Training. This site has all of the great things that Club FYM has, but is for men and women.

So, will you join me in changing your life in 2011??  What do you have to lose?

If you feel like me, do this with me! I will post some info on signing up for the challenge as soon as I sign up.

I have got to make a change!

I need to get every workout in.  Things have to change from this point on.  Day 11 will be a better post than this one.  Promise!

I would like to thank Dax for everything he has done for the people doing the MAP Fat Loss challenge, and I would like to personally like to say sorry for not giving it my all.

I promise to change my ways from here on out!

Check out Dax’s Site:

I have also enjoyed doing the Elimination Diet.  This is something that I need to be on all year because it makes me feel so much better.  I have no stomach bloating or pain, and I just feel great!

Thanks again Dax!
