Let it snow.

I haven't had a chance to write much because Ive had some crazy adventures but my new lifestyle is going great. I love the way im feeling and am trying to inspire others to join me. My family wont give up sugar but we have increased the veggie intake. Also I am following the lean jean nutrition guide my trainer gave me. This is ten lifestyle changes and each week I pick three goals. This week.
1. Add fruits/veggies to every meal.
2. Take probiotics and supplements.
3. Eat after work out snack.

Now for my week recap.
  • Thursday - This day was hard. I was really craving sugar and wanted to eat everything in sight. When this happens im trying to choose something healthy. I think I will try a baked sweet potato with agave nectar and cinnamon. I was still very sore from my workouts so I took another day to rest. I felt bad not working out.
  • Friday - I have began to increase my water and veggie intakes. I saw Nasca today and worked on my tri pushup. I am already feeling stronger. I then drove down to White Pass to see Ryan and his team of snow sculptors. They made an awesome space ship crashing into the snow castle. If you ever get a chance check out the winter carnival.  I tried to choose healthy options like subway. Once I got there I helped shovel. Not to mention walking in the snow take a lot more effort. 
  • Saturday I went boarding! I haven't gone forever and sucked but it was still fun. Weather was not ideal but I loved it. Everything was free as I was with the "Carvers". White Pass was cute and it was fun meeting the staff. I broke the diet by eating Nachos and a Cheeseburger for dinner. It was so hard not to eat more lodge food. 
  • Sunday - We went back to the pass. I didn't board this day because of some fear and it was very icy. I drove home and rested. 
  • Today I ran a mile and did a Nasca workout. I went to get ingredients for morning smoothies/ post workout snacks. This will include wheat germ, soy yogurt, oats, protein powder and lots of yummy fruits. I am excited to try it. I also had an awesome taco salad! Yay for VEGGIES!

The start of something new.

Today I worked out with Nasca for the first time. Jeeze do I love that woman. She can work some magic. I'm so excited to meet with her twice a week! Not only did she give me a great workout she also gave me some nutrition guidelines and homework. Lifestyle changes I will be making and I'm ver excited.

This weeks goal eat fruits and veghies with everymeal.

After our workout I went to her yoga class where my legs then feeled like jello. Now I'm starting to feel sore in my thighs and arms. I love it!

As for food I did fairly well besides going to free pancake day at ihop. But hey we all need to live a little.

I also want to share this picture. I now live half The time on whidbey island and have fallen in love with the beach. My paradise.

Taking it all away.

As most of you know I have been into nutrition and exercise science since High School. This is my ultimate goal and I hope to have a degree in it soon. But as the year has passed and I have been out of school I don't seem to be motivated anymore.

I would rather sleep than workout. I feel tired all the time. And I feel gross about my body.
All of this is changing!

Thanks to the motivation of my friend and family especially Jess I know I can do this.
Changing my lifestyle will also help motivate me to start my career.
Ready Set Go!

Any ideas for me? Post them here. :)

You never cease to amaze me.

Sunday, after a very powerful two weeks Ry and I decided to take some time for us. After all it was our three year aniversary. I wanted to do something new and different so we went on an adventure to Fort Kasey. I had never been there and was so excited to explore! We walked around the park for hours looking and finding cool new things. Ryan was supper excited to use his new camera and took pictures of everything. I loved the vast amount of knowledge he had about the site. It was so much fun to just be the two of us. I loved it. We ended the evening at a cute little restraunt in Coopeville and then home to watch movies. Perfect. I hate leaving him each weekend. I can't wait to spend forever together <3

Black friday!

Wow do I love shopping. Kristen and I decided to venture out for our first Black Friday adventure.
Step One: Go to Walmart at 10pm Thanksgiving night. We gave up after about 10 minutes. White trash everywhere and carts lining the isles. It wasn't worth it to stand in a three hour line to get DVD's so we left.

Step Two: Stand at Kohls in the rain for two hours until they open the door. This was totally worth it. I got so many good deals and some good things for Ryan and I.

Step Three: Fred Myer sock sale after 4 am. Here is where the magic happens. Lots and lots of socks for Ryan and I.

Step Four: Hit the outlet mall tonight after everyone is home sleeping. Jess got a 15 dollar pair of heels at Vince Cameato. Amazing!
