If you attend Hot Spot and you do the classes, you know our next challenge is doing Meal Prep. I was excited because my eating was the one thing I could not get under control. Once I can get that down, I am sure more weight will drop. YAY!!!! Last week I couldn't do my meal prep because I had some oral surgery done and I was on a liquid diet. YAY!!!! That also meant I could not workout either. As of yesterday, I have been cleared to eat solid food and workout. Again, YAY!!!! So onto the meal prep for this week..... As most know, I am NOT a big meat eater. My mom let me try things, if I liked it, I ate it. If I didn't, then she didn't force me to eat it. My aunt told me that she read that your blood type is what decides if you're a meat eater or not. I can't recall my blood type, but I will find it and share it with you, then we find out if this theory is true. Saturday while suffering Facebook, I found a recipe that was a meal prep for vegetarian. Score one ...

Sunday April the 30th, 2017 was the end of the group challenge. Everyone who participated in it, finished it and was able to get their Hot Spot Tanning and Fitness cups. I must say that I love mine but most of all, I am proud of myself for completing the challenge. Today, May 1st, 2017 we are starting a new challenge....Push-Ups. I will be taking videos of myself so that I can blog about them and also see how far I have come and also so I can see what all I need to work on. As of right now, I need to work on it all. But with my instructor and gym family behind me, I will own them push-ups!!!! Here is the first video....

April 10th, 2017 we started a new challenge. We were placed in teams for three or four ladies and we each have to complete 15 workouts a piece. So in total, the group of three will have to complete a grand total of 45 workouts and the group of four have to complete grand total of 60 workouts, all in 21 days. I am in a group of four and I was placed with three women who bust their tails in working out. Which is a big motivation for me. It has been such a big motivation for me, that I am currently holding 24 workouts under my belt and will be adding one more this afternoon. There has been mornings that I have woke up and thought, "Maybe I should stay in the bed." But I get on up and go, then I am happy that I did. I feel so much better knowing that I am 1.) I am not letting my team members down, 2.) I am not letting myself down, and 3.) I am seeing changes within myself. Keep up the good work ladies.

We all have said this day I will start my diet. That day comes and a new date is set. That one also comes and you have yet again set a new date. Now you're just stuck in the setting a date and then saying the next day routine. Well my date to start was January 1st but I actually didn't get started till January 5th. I saw the gym I attend post about a 15 Day Challenge. You complete 12 workouts in 15 days and you earn one of their bags. I decided to set that as my small goal. You know they say set smaller goals to reach the bigger one..... I didn't complete that goal but I came pretty damn  dang close to it. I started five days after most of the ladies and for me to get 11 classes in (I lost one class due to a late cancelation) was awesome to me. I am sure the guy who did bootcamp years ago would tell you that, that says a lot for me. Now on to the next challenge. January 19th we started the 28 Day Challenge. For the next four weeks we are busting our butts to lose weigh...

Paralegal Degree program.....one word.....YIKES!!!!!  I knew when I was little I would either be a Veterinarian or a Lawyer. My brother, Jamie, was a vet tech here in Cairo and he got me a volunteer job at the vet he worked at. I loved it, because I was working with my Bubba and I got to work with animals. I did that for almost two years till I had to witness a dog being put to sleep and how much it hurt the owners. I would go broke trying to help save a pet then having to put it down. I know, I am such a softy! Well after that, I decided that being a Veterinarian was not for me. At that time, nothing was right for me. Guess you could say God had his own plans to work.  Well let me do a Star Trek warping here.......  After having my son, I knew schooling would take too long and I did't want to miss the important times of my growing peanut's life. So, I place everything on the back burner till he started school.  Another Star Trek warping.......   ...
