I had the best of both worlds this morning for breakfast!
A lovely Green Monster:
Ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cup Almond Breeze
- 3 organic kale leaves
- 1 T peanut butter (SO GOOD!)
- 1 scoop Hemp powder
- 1 Peppermint tea bag
- Garlic
- 1/2 frozen banana
- ice
And a special treat for ending the BBBC!
The Spring BBBC is officially over!
It has been quite a ride hasn’t it?? :) I have enjoyed doing this so much and I have learned so many great new strength exercises along the way!
This morning I was quite nervous to do my measurements!
I have been seeing great results so that eased my worries a bit.
But first: How did I do with my intense workouts this weekend?
Here is the training plan that I made for this weekend:
Friday: 1 hour cardio, Level 3 of 30-Day Shred [DID IT]
Saturday: 5 Mile run [DID 4.75 MILES]
Sunday: Level 3 Shred + BBBC Blast (see below) + 30 mins cardio [DID 40 mins CARDIO + BBBC BLAST] Level 3 of the Shred I am doing today.
So I am pretty happy with how well I stuck to my intense exercise program this weekend! Eric can vouch for me that I was super tired last night, but I still got in a decent workout. :)
So without further ado, let’s check out my final results!
Starting date | Measurement 1 | Measurement 2 | Measurement 3 | |
Body Part | March 26, 2009 | April 30, 2009 | May 19, 2009 | June 1, 2009 |
Arm | 11.5” | 10 3/4” | 11” | 11” |
Smallest part of waist waist | 25” | 25 1/4” | 24.5” | 24.5” |
Largest part of waist | 32.5” | 31” | 30.5” | 29 1/4” |
Hips (at widest part around butt) | 35 1/4” | 34 1/4” | 34 1/4” | 34” |
Largest part of thigh | 21” | 21 1/4” | 20 1/2” | 20 1/2” |
Bust | No Change | No Change | No Change | No Change |
So since March 26, 2009 I have lost 6 inches! This is way more than I ever thought I would lose.
I am now a firm believer that core work WHITTLES the waist. My stomach hasn’t been this toned feeling for a long time now! And as you can see, I have had the greatest losses in my waist with 3.75 inches lost!
I was even more nervous for my Before and After pictures! We all know how hard it can be to see changes on camera!!!
I am going to make you wait until this afternoon to see them! :)
Coming up this afternoon:
- My before and after pictures
- A My Hip-T contest giveaway!
I am off to study- guess what I forgot this weekend? I totally forgot about my EXAM today!!!! I really am NOT in student mode anymore! Anyways, now I have to cram this morning! Hopefully I do ok!
Have a lovely Monday everyone!! :)
