It has been a While

I am back... Well after a year of ups and downs I am back to talk about my Journey and to Refocus!!

Over the past year I have stuck with Pure Barre Off and On, took an adult jazz class, had a boob job, hit the gym and did nothing. I have also working on my waterfowl business and changed jobs at my real job. So why back to the Blog...

On July 5th me and my grandmother took my kids on a vacation to Orlando for 10 days. How much can you cram into 10 days when two of those are driving.. LOTS!! We got home on Saturday 14th. I immediately wanted to look at some of our pictures and oh boy.. one of those pictures hit home.. That is me?? I mean really.. no that can't be.. I have to do something. To top it off my littlest one, OK he is 7 and in his honest stage of life told me mom you are fat... Hello Realization! hit me in the face why don't. So at the very moment I decided I had to do something...

On Monday July 16th I went back to Pure Barre.. oh how I missed the  Burn... LB told me that day that I was only 9 classes away from hitting 100 and being in the "100 tuck club"! WOOH.. oh and by the way you need to hit before next Wednesday July 25th, there is something special coming up... Oh brother.. that means 9 classes in 9 days. OK I can do this.The only problem is I have vowed to take one day off a week and that would be Sunday since Pure Barre is in the middle of the day and I am normally knee or elbow deep in  birds! So I made Monday-Friday! WOOH.... Saturday morning rolled around and oh no I need to get to the farm I have people coming out... so no Pure Barre. So 4 classes left to hit 100... Oh brother.. Here we go..
Monday July 23rd 2 classes done
Tuesday July 24th 6am class done and now I am ready to tackle the 5:30pm class to hit 100!!!!
Oh brother do my Abs and Seat already hurt!! I can do this though

I can honestly say that after 9 classes I can see the changes in my body already!

I love the Barre... Once I have the full "Pure Barre" body I so want to become and instructor and share this method with other women.. Hint Hint if you are reading this..

I am also watching closely what I eat..
Basically
Breakfast: 2-3 Farm fresh eggs hard boiled (off our farm), 4 pieces of turkey bacon
Snack: fruit or yogurt with peanut butter maybe or almond butter
Lunch: Chicken and Veggies or Salad and Chicken (Turkey)
Snack: fruit or yogurt with peanut butter maybe or almond butter
Dinner: Protein, veggies, Shakelogy I love the chocolate!!

I am eating healthy and making the right choices and using http://www.myfitnesspal.com/ to track my calories in vs calories out!

Be back later after the next class!!
