#FITANDFABULOUS

Full of fiber and a home grown cucumber:)

Probiotics…”gut of your health” watch the video you will know what I am talking about it.

I add coconut oil to my morning smoothie.

“It’s been shown to support healthy metabolism, and contribute to satiety. There’s also evidence coconut oil is a heart-healthy food because it supports healthy triglyceride levels and maintains good cholesterol levels already in the normal range.” Dr. Brian Dixon
It  is so important to start your day off balanced. If you  are not quite ready to embrace my FITANDFABULOUS PROGRAM. Make one change this week and blend up a morning smoothie. Such an easy way to start your day off right. You can blend it the night before but don’t add the fibergy until you are ready to drink it. Thickens up if it sits too long.

I also love to add Nutrimeal Free to my energy bites. Have you tried the Grain free chocolate peppermint cookies with Nutrimeal Free? You can add it to your pancakes as well. Great way to up the protein!

Breakfast!

Week two …3 pounds lighter.

It is Progress. Heading in the right direction. Half a pound this week according to the scale. It feels like more, my pants are definitely looser and my belly is flatter. Keep on going.

My Big News!

I have created THE PROGRAM! Are you ready to join me on the Fit and Fabulous…Aging Optional Journey. It is so much easier when we are all in this together!

Watch this and see what you think.

I didn’t go into the food in the video. I have been eating well. One night, I had sirloin steak, roasted vegetables and red wine. So delicious!  Last night we had cod and scallops over pasta.   I have changed a few things in my diet. These small changes have made a difference. I can help you too!

Sirloin steak, roasted vegetables and a glass of red wine! Delicious!

one week…2.4 pounds lighter!

Tuesday morning check in. I am down 2.4 in a week! I measured my waist last week and it was a tight, suck it in 31 inches. Today it got there with ease. Whew~

This has been an easy process, cutting back on my eating and bumping up the exercise a little bit. I had a daily glass of organic red wine and Sunday night is always ice cream night at our house. A cup of vanilla with a spoonful of caramel sauce. AND I am 2.4 pounds lighter! No deprivation here.

I am putting this all together for a September program. Interested ? It is amazing what accountability can do. We will raise each other up! Let me know, I will put you on the list!

Sneakers are in!

Hair, Make-up and Fashion!  I did a post on make-up, hair and now fashion.

I finally feel really comfortable in my own skin. I am finding clothes that feel good and I am comfortable wearing them . Did you know? Sneakers are in!  Is that the best news ever? Here is the latest video.

I talked about Madame Chic by Jennifer Scott in the video. Jennifer loves to wear dresses and an apron if she is making dinner or cleaning the kitchen. She also loves her ballet flats. She never even mentions sneakers and I never wore a pair of ballet flats. The point is she has found what she loves and I have found what works best for me.

Silver is the new blonde!

Silver is the new blonde!

I am letting my hair color grow out. I am tired of putting chemicals on my head. I have loved my blonde highlights but I am feeling like it is time to let them go.  We will see how it goes. By the way, ( Debbie at Imagine in Shrewsbury is my hair dresser.) It is important to have a good hair cut.

Beauty radiates  from happy, healthy, and fit people. I don’t think you need blonde highlights to make you feel better. I will find out. I am embracing where I am in my life, wrinkles, age spots and silver highlights.

Of course, I am stopping women wherever I go and I am talking Hair.

I couldn’t do this ten years ago!

10 years ago, I could barely do 2-3 push ups in a row. I was a distance runner with no concern with upper body strength. Now, my workouts are a 45 minute full body workout focusing on strength, endurance and flexibility.

Check out the push-up off the ground. I was impressed with myself the first time I did this and to be honest I am impressed every time I do it:). It is very empowering. We are working on this in my class and most of the ladies can push up off the ground. Are you local? Would you like to learn more about my program. Click here.

FIT AND FABULOUS…AGING OPTIONAL

One of my clients touched his toes last week! It was a big deal. Flexibility is also so important. What are you working on today that you couldn’t do ten years ago? Please leave a comment. I would love to hear from you.

I have been BENCHED!

It is time to rest, which is not an easy thing for me to do. I love working out with my group. I love how I feel when I workout. Doing pushups, mountain climbers and burpees is  all very empowering.

Sometimes your body tells you to slow down and take care of yourself. My body probably has been telling me that for awhile but I don’t like to hear it.

This weekend went spent hours in the car and my back seized up so now I really need to rest, ice and some foam rolling.  Movement is good but I can’t push it to the pain level. I tend to push through the pain as an athlete you learn to do that. Right? I don’t need to anymore. The goal is to be healthy, fit and feeling good.

So for now I have been benched.

Sometimes you just need to sit on a swing.

Sometimes you just need to sit on a swing.

Actually, I can move as I want as long as it doesn’t cause pain. Movement is good, pain causes inflammation. It is especially important to be taking my supplements now. They will help reduce the inflammation in my body.

How do you do with taking time off from working out? Does it make you cranky, irritable or are you happy to have a break? I would love to hear from you.

Take away…be nice to yourself!

Love,

Mary

Outdoors…

Do you get outside everyday? I do. I have George the dog who needs to be walked everyday twice a day. He loves weather, rain, wind, snow, sun. He is not crazy about thunderstorms.

Lately, I go out and work in my gardens. I try to limit it to 20 minutes a day . Just that makes you feel better, even if all I am doing is pulling dandelions or picking up dog poop. It just makes you feel good.

Grandpa Sam’s wheelbarrow

I wanted to honor Grandpa Sam’s wheelbarrow in my blog post. I have used it for years and so did he. It makes me happy to look at it. I did buy a big 6 cubic feet with a big fat tire which makes me happy too:)

Fit and Fabulous tip…Go outside everyday if only for a few minutes. It will make you feel better. “My body was designed to move and stretch and feel strong, flexible and alive. I love the feeling.” Dr. Christiane Northrup from her book Goddesses Never Age.

My Fit and Fabulous workouts are outside all year long. Come try a class. Hula hoops, Jump ropes and so much more. I can modify for any fitness level.

That is it for now. Go outside, take a walk, pick a dandelion, plant lettuce or just sit in the sunshine. Your choice.

Love,

Mary
