T25 & Brazil Butt Lift Week 2 Menu

I spend every Sunday meal planning, going grocery shopping and prepping my meals! Here is a menu I put together for this week. I am trying different Shakeology recipes everyday this week! I am also allowing myself 3 cheat meals a week because it is my birthday on Friday!! I am now maintaining weight and this is what works for me! When I first started out I only allowed myself 1 cheat meal a week. I recommend this for anyone starting out!!

Some pointers on eating to keep your metabolism going all day long. I am not a nutritionist but this is what I have done and it works for me!

• Aim to eat every 2-3 hours
• Eat 5-6 small meals a day
• Prep your meals before hand (ex. bag up your snacks so they are easy to grab and go)
• Drink plenty of water every day (1/2 of your body weight in ounces each day)
• Always pair a complex carb with a protein (ex. plain unsalted almonds(14) and an apple)
• Watch your portion sizes (this is a big one because you CAN overeat healthy foods

I practice the 80/20 way of eating. I like to eat as healthy as I can 80% of the time but enjoy food (in moderation) 20% of the time! I feel like you should allow yourself a cheat meal once a week (while you are starting out only one) so you are not depriving yourself and you are more likely to stay on track this way! 

If you have any questions about how to make a meal plan I would love to help you!

T25 & Brazil Butt Lift Hybrid Workout Schedule

Me and one of my coaches started a new Summer Slim Down challenge group and we are participating as challengers as well to keep us on track!! Sometimes even as coaches we get off track! I decided I am going to be doing T25 and Brazil Butt Lift to get my rear in gear for the summer!!

Here is the schedule that I put together for the 2 workouts!! I have already completed week 1 and my butt was on fire! I forgot that I was running my first 5k on Saturday (last Saturday) so I was hobbling while running!!! I had to rest on Monday because I was so sore from that too but I got back at it today!!!

 I am hopeful by the time summer gets here that I WILL be ready!!!

If you would like to join one of my challenge groups or try one of these programs you can send me an email at ashley_weaver10@hotmail.com or find me on Facebook @ www.facebook.com/ashley.weaver.566 !

T25 & P90X3 Results Update

I just wanted to give a quick update! I had finished T25 and was 4 weeks in P90X3(I am taking a break for the 21 Day Fix) but I have lost 20 pounds and 19 inches! 

I was trying to find a picture of me in my "old pants" and it was very hard!! I finally found a couple from my sons 2nd birthday party. I was at the point to where I would hide from cameras! I seriously would never have thought my pants would fit like this 6 months later(it took 3 1/2 months to get the weight off)! I NEVER want to go back there again. Even if it feels impossible it is possible, trust me!!
