Hey guys,
Monday February 23rd we continue or begin our healthy journey. This is a support group for anyone who want to join. The meal and work-out plans are not exclusive but instead, a guide for whoever may need it. This is something that has worked for me based on my structure and needs. Find different things (health foods/recipes, work-outs) and just stick to a plan. Take things out, add things and make it yours. I suggest that if you do not recognize any of the exercises, just google or youtube them. The most important thing here is consistency and eating right (It is important to eat 4-5 small meals per day as suggested in the meal plan below). You do not have to kill yourself on the exercise, unless you are going to compete:) This is not an easy fix or a get me to perfection in one month type of idea. It is, instead, a journey that I hope could turn into a habit for all of us. I rarely weigh myself, I usually use my clothes as a guide because for me, the scale can be trivial and tell me I am pounds heavy when indeed those pounds could be muscle, which is great for burning fat and looking fit. We well conclude March 22, 2015. I will check in weekly and we will discuss what is working and what is not.
