Accio Abs!

Good morning witches and wizards! I hope you are all doing fantastic! On Saturday, October 13, I went to a Harry Potter Bar Crawl! It was tons of fun! I wore my HP gear of course (what I could find)😀! I wore a Harry Potter snuggle as a robe 😂! Definitely need to get a robe! Tons of people dressed up! There were Harry Potter themed drinks, and we got wands! I was in nerd heaven! Siriusly loved this event 😏💖! A few pictures from the bar crawl! I loved it! 💛😀 Monday 10/08/2018: Legs and Cardio Went for a morning run. I did 5 miles and felt like I could do another, so it made me motivated to sign up for a 10k in December! I've never done one before, but for the first time, I feel like I could! I also signed up for a 10 mile run in March. If all goes well, I'll sign up for a half marathon, which I've always wanted to do, but never felt like I could! In the afternoon, I did 30 minutes of cardio on the stairclimber! My leg routine was: 4 sets : (1st set...

Good evening everyone! I hope you're still reading! I meant to post last night! I am sorry for the delay! I have some exciting things to share! :) Boston was tons of fun! My sisters and I went to a Red Sox game, ate great food, walked around downtown Boston, went to see Ed Sheeran at Gillette Stadium (Ed 💗😍), I took a picture in front of TD Garden with my Lakers jersey 😏, and so much more! I loved it! I love the history that's rooted in Boston. We did the walked the Freedom Trail, and it was really cool! Now, to go over my exercises for the last week and a half (almost two weeks).

Good evening witches, wizards, and muggles! I hope you are all doing fantastic. Sorry for the delay in the post. Also, just a heads upI won't be posting for about a week and a half. I am going on a trip to Boston with my sisters! Yay! I'll tell you all about it in my next post! :) Alrighty, so as promised I took progress pictures, but only got my weight measurement...not the greatest, and it probably won't be great while I'm on vacation, but we shall see.                      Photos taken Sunday, September 9, 2018 weighing in at 129.5 lbs. I tried to hide my face because I woke up late to meet my family for breakfast (that's why I don't have the other measurements). I seem to be on an upward trend. I really need to buckle down. I have been way less stringent with my food intake (amount and type). Starting next week, I'll hunker down and really focus. In the meantime, I am going to enjoy my vacation and not stress...

Good evening everyone! I hope you are enjoying the holiday weekend! Sorry for the delay in this post and also for a lack of measurement updates 😞. I forgot to take some this morning before I ate and worked out. I definitely will next week for sure! I started a new job this past week and things have definitely been slipping my mind. I need a Remembrall or at least one that works. Maybe Neville will lend me his? I could definitely use it!  Moving on, I did not do the Bikini Body Program this week. I just felt like it would have been wasted. My trainer also told me we could do whatever I want (even though he also suggested giving it another week). I sat down with him and showed him my ideas for a workout schedule and he gave his suggestions and this is what my routine looked like this week: Monday: Legs and 30 minutes of cardio Cardio-Arctrainer Hack Squat-Wide Leg Extensions Seated Leg Curls Abductors Hack Squat-Narrow Abs Tuesday: Calves/Glutes and 45 min...

Good morning everyone! I hope you've had a great week and weekend! I sure did! On Monday, I started a new program. It's called 8 Weeks to a Bikini-Ready Body by Tawna Eubanks. You can find it online on the Kaged Muscle Website. I'm not following it exactly, but pretty close just based on my own preferences,so we will see how it goes. In weeks one and five you start new training programs. With those weeks you're really learning the moves and figuring out weights to use. The next weeks your supposed to work on increasing it and going heavy. There are daily videos you watch. In addition, meal plan examples and a list of supplements to use are provided. Here is week one: Monday: Day 1-Glutes and Delts Barbell Hip Thrusts: 4 sets- reps of 10, 5, 20 ,20 (I did 50 lb curl bar) Dumbbell Walking Lunge : 4 sets- reps of 10 steps/leg (15 lb dumbbells) Back Extension (focus on glutes): 2 sets-reps of 30 (no additional weight) Gluteator (well abduction machine) : 4 sets- r...

Good evening everyone! I got my Harry Potter Blender Bottle!!! Yayyy!! I'm so happy! Anyways, thanks for sticking it out for recounting my journey made possible with those time turners. Yes, I somehow managed to snag one that was not completely destroyed 😂. I hope it wasn't a complete bore to you. I also hope it has helped you in some way, whether it's been learning what not to do, something that might work for you, or even inspiring you a tad. My journey's not over, and I still have some goals in mind. I hope you stick with me through new ups, downs, and challenges I face! My Harry Potter Blender Bottle! Beginning last week (8/6/18 when I got home from my friends wedding), I changed my diet plan to focus on my macros. I had never paid much attention to them even though I know focusing on them really enhances progress you want to make. Macros are macronutrients consisting of the three nutrients we eat most and provide the most energy which are carbohydrates, ...
