It's in the Details!

Its in the details!

I am sure you've heard the saying in order to be successful it's 80% planning and 20% execution-- SO TRUE! We are coming down to just days before our 10 day clean eating challenge. Be prepared to feel great and shed some extra lbs. Its been said that during he holidays, the average weight gained is 10 lbs. Not you, not this holiday. We are going to lose those 10 lbs.
First things first:

• Get everything that is tempting out of your house! I will include a recipe that will help with your sweet tooth, everytime I want to cheat I whip up this quick recipe (and the kids think its a REAL cookie).
• Determine the amount of calories you should be consuming daily, go to this website to get an accurate calorie count: http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/calorie-know-how-get-equation-right-to-get-results.html
• What kind of workout do you NEED (yes, if you read my last post- you have to focus on your weakness, not just your strength to prevent plateaus). Cardio, weight training, yoga. I will also be posting a series of workouts to focus on different areas-- but only you can determine what you need.

Grab a calendar, just a weekly one-- I suggest a dry erase board, this way you can see your goals as well as update it frequently. some things you can plan now: Meal prep, I usually do mine on Sundays (the recipes will be posted Saturday night) give yourself 3 to 4 hours to prep your entire week--write that on your calendar. Work with your schedule- if you have a set schedule, write in when you can get a 30 minute workout 6/7 days a week. If you don't have a set schedule, start noticing patterns or free time this week to see what's going to work best for you. Write down when you will eat your snacks, its easy to plan your 3 set meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) but we often forget the 3 other snacks that we need to boost our metabolism.
