The first step in achieving any goal is you have to commit yourself to it. Ten months ago I made a commitment to myself that I was going to get fit and healthy for myself and for my family. After having a baby, your priorities change. But, you still have to make time for yourself. This was something I struggled with. How in the world was I to find time for myself? I am a full time working mom, with a brand new baby. I commute 30 plus minutes back and forth from work daily. The last thing I want to do is take anymore time away from my family.
Well, my "me" time is at 4:30 am every morning with a wonderful group of people I now call my crossift family. Yes, I said 4:30 am. I get my day started off on the right foot. I head out the door while my husband and baby boy are still sleeping. I go and push my-self to the limit and I love every minute of it. In the past 10 months I have transformed my body into something I never thought was achievable for me. I can lift more weight than I ever dreamed, run faster, and I have more energy than I had in my 20's. Crossfit has become a blessing to me and my family. It gives me and my husband something to talk about. We have common goals and we want to set a healthy example for our child.
In this blog I will share what I am doing on a daily basis to reach and maintain my goals. I will share my meal plans with you, products I believe in that help me stay focused and energized, and maybe some before and after pics if I get that brave.
Next Sunday, April 6th I will be starting the Advocare 10 day cleanse. I will post meal ideas, pics, and excerise ideas. Stay tuned.......
