It's been a while... again!

I've been busy since I last wrote.  I started my own Pampered Chef business in February, WooHoo!! It's been a fun ride and I am loving it! I also just became a Beachbody Coach! ... Really, 2 kids, husband working different shifts, pampered chef, AND beachbody! I know what you're thinking and I'm thinking it too... I hope I'm not spreading myself too thin.

With that being said, for now as far as beachbody goes, I will be blogging here about my new fitness adventure with the 21 day fix.  I will continue as a Pampered Chef consultant and loving and teaching my kids.

SOoo, here it goes! 

My why:  

Since having my kids, I've only stepped on the ice a hand full of times.  Hockey has always been my way of keeping in shape.  I am not overweight now by any means, I am just OUT OF SHAPE!!  My weight is close to what it was before kids but I think it is distributed differently.  So I want to get back in shape. I want to be a positive roll model for my kids.  I want them to know that to be healthy you have to sweat! You have to do things you may not want to do.  You have to push yourself to get where you want to be.  I want them to grow up seeing me active. I want them to see that I take pride in my body and more importantly my health.  My daughter (who just turned 3 in august) often gets frustrated while doing things and then gets mad and throws what ever it is or quits doing what she was doing.  I want her to learn perseverance. I want her to learn not to give up. 

I don't want to tell my kids all this stuff. I want them to see it. I want to teach them by example. I want them to see me persevering through a workout.  Struggling to finish a set.  Pushing myself to do the harder way, to do one more rep.  

So, my why is to lead. To lead my kids by example.  To lead them to a better, stronger, healthier life.  

My workout.  

Today I got my 21 day fix package in the mail!! I opened it at lunchtime and did my first workout during Charlie's afternoon nap.  I did the total body cardio fix.  It kicked my butt, but I pushed through and finished the workout as Abby watched, played, and tried it out a little (in the beginning!) I am still figuring out my meal plan, and will start that tomorrow :) 

I am going to take some before pics tonight.  Don't expect to see them any time soon haha!

See ya!
