Day 1 of the Transform App

7/29/2019

0 Comments

 
I just finished Day 1 of my transformation on the Transform App with Chris and Heidi Powell. 
Today I did pretty good with water, but will work on drinking more. It's all I drink anyway. Lol. I was under my carbs, fat grams, and calories and my protein numbers were good. Today was the max reps fitness challenge.
I did: 
Modified pushups (on my knees): 25
Situps: 16
Squats: 32
Burpees: 3 
And
10 minute accelerator
This is no where near what I used to be able to do when I was younger and might not be impressive to some, but I'm proud of it because it's a step in the right direction and way better than I expected since I hadn't worked out in a while. I need some new workout gear though so I can move more freely and stay a bit cooler. I was very proud that my kiddo joined in with everything I did today. He wanted to eat healthy like Mom and workout with me. I have always said the best way to get a kid moving in a healthy direction is to lead by example. That's what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to be more bold and put myself out there more and working on walking into my promised land. Anyone is welcome to join me in this weight loss journey. Remember Phil. 4:13 says "I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me!" All means all! Burpees might have won the battle tonight, but this is a marathon not a Sprint and I WILL dominate them one day. I hope you have a blessed motivation Monday. I love you all!

Looking for the Positive

The other day I had the opportunity to find the positive in such a weird crazy day. Lol. I was grabbing my things and Brayden had grabbed the keys and I didn't know until after I shut the door that Brayden had laid the keys back down so we got locked out of the house and the car. We had to wait on my husband to get home. Coincidentally he left his keys at the job site the day before so after he got back to town he had to go to my sister in law's house to take her to her car to get the spare so we could get back in the house to get mine. She always has her car, but ironically the other day she told her husband to drive because she had a headache and didn't need it. There were a few other "coincidences" that happened as well. We were all going to the baseball game that night, but due to the events of the day didn't get to go. My sister in law and I chose to laugh and said apparently we weren't meant to go that night. Things happen, things don't always go to plan, but God is still on the throne. Life was crazy, but I choose to look at the positive. It wasn't raining, there was a cool breeze blowing, and I enjoyed a game of basketball with the kiddo until we could get back inside. I know this motivation Monday was a little shorter than usual, but I leave you with this verse, Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." God has you in the palm of his hand. He's working things out for your good. If your life is going a little crazy right now. I encourage you to find something positive in it. As always I want to remind you all that you are loved, you are wanted, and you are appreciated.

Lego Marvel Super Heroes: Infinity War Thor's Weapon Quest Kit

7/18/2019

The Lego Marvel Super Heroes: Infinity War Thor's Weapon Quest building kit honestly took a little more time to put together than most of our builds. I will admit it was some trial and error with a few parts of it. Not to mention a slip of the hand and it collapsed and I had to start completely a handful of times. We still really enjoyed making it and playing with Rocket, Thor, and Groot. I am Groot! Did I say how much I love Groot! I love Rocket and Thor too. ;) 

(On a side: I thought I had taken more pictures then this so I apologize. If I find anymore I will add them.)

Try, try, try again

This super hero kid right here just kept trying and trying again as he tried to learn how to jump rope. He was like the little engine that could. He is nowhere near perfect at it, but I am so proud of him that he refused to give up and kept making an attempt. He has had to get past some difficulties with his special needs, but he never stops trying. I tell him daily practice doesn't make perfect. Practice makes better. The more we practice the better we get at it. Whatever you are trying to do or learn just remind yourself of Brayden and his jump rope. Keep practicing and you will get better at it! Hope you all have a blessed week!
                                                             I love you all!
