Started out a day well so far. It is almost 2pm. I had 2 hardboiled eggs and 2 slices of colby cheese for breakfast along with my coffee. Lunch was 6 ounces of tuna with mayo and red onion. Plan is to have a protein shake as a snack and a Asian chopped salad for my dinner.
I joined a 36 day challenge with HITT burn that starts next Monday. I have the app and did 2 HIITT workouts this past 2 days along with the cardio workout.
Kill the Fat! Its the first day of Fall and this is my goal. No excuses, no quitting ....just success. 10-15 lbs of fat gone before the Holiday season!!!

It is Sunday, September 22, 2019. This first week did not go as good as I wanted. I am planning for a better week, starting today!
Goals to shoot for this week:
Warm lemon water to start off my day (before coffee)
High protein, low carb every meal! Eggs for breakfast, tuna for lunch, salad and protein for dinner. Snacks: hard boiled eggs or a Dymatize protein shake.
Workouts: Coach 3x a week. 2-3 cardio workouts, 4 weight training workouts, core workouts 4x per week.
Water, water, water!!!!
Challenges: Desserts or an alcoholic beverage are sometimes wanted during the week. I need healthy choices for this. There are a couple of recipes for high protein balls or bars in Fitness Pal. Hard kombucha or sparkling water with lemon or lime is another choice to try this week. Just Do IT!!!!

The last 2 days have been OK, well sort of. Yesterday got together with the girls after class and too many sweets to start my morning off. Scones, bunt cake, oatmeal cookies and a Starbuck Pumpkin spice latte. Yeah....not good way to start off the day. Lunch was on the fly and can't even remember what I ate. :( Shrimp dish for dinner that was very healthy. I did not really track yesterday in FitnessPal but I have to say it wasn't my optimum day.
Today, was much better. I went over 27g in my carbs but everything else was on point. Need to get better at those carbs. My goal is 83 grams but really if it was even less I think it would be better. Carbs are not my friend and keeping them very controlled is really best for me.

I did great yesterday until last night. Overdid my macros on carbs. I was under in protein and fats and sleep last night was horrible. Got a good workout in yesterday- Chest, Back and abs so hopefully not too much damage.
This morning I started off with a 30 min Cardio session on the treadmill. Intervals of power walking a 2 min hill and jogging on a small incline for 2 mins. Starting out this Monday on the right foot! Better day ahead....I got this!

NEW AGE, NEW GOALS for this coming YEAR
Today is September 15, 2019 and it is a day after my 56th birthday. I am on a journey to lose fat and build muscle tone. I would like to lose at least 10-12 lbs and firm and tighten especially my back, chest and ab area.
I have started using the WarriorBabe program. It is a great workout program for women incorporating a whole body strength workout with cardio and core workouts. It also has you tracking macronutrients. I have identified myself as a endo-meso body type. My goal is to hit the following macros: 116 grams of protein, 83 grams of carbs and 59g of fat. Total calorie consumption is 1328 calories per day but my true goal is to stay within the macros I identified even if I go above or below that calorie goal.
By this time next year, by my 57th birthday. I want to see the improvement of my efforts. So today, I am starting this blog again. It is entitled 150 days to Fitness. I want to see where I am at in the next 150 days or 5 months but I am giving myself a whole year to reach my absolute goal.
