How many times do you feel like taking the easy way out? I will only do one workout today, I will do 10 push-ups instead of 20 when you feel like giving up that is the precise moment when you should push for more. The last ten seconds of the work out is not the time to quit. It is the time to push your body over its limits and get a sense of accomplishment if you believe you can do more you will do more if you think you've done enough and that it is time to stop right where you stopped is where you will be. push hard every day at school at work at home with family and friends always do your best and then a little bit more.

Hello, hello everyone welcome back! right now I would like to tell you about the very first day of my challenge. I started out super grand starting my work out at 5:45am taking my shake after and heading to school. I mixed my shakeology with water and the taste was not so tasty, but I took it down smoothly. I get to campus excited seriously the energy I had I was ready to take on the world! I get to class only to find out my professor brought a treat for our class.. and not just any treat, but home made chocolate chip butterscotch cookies! they were coming fast being passed from table to table until they finally arrived with me and I had to say "No thank you" I could honestly taste the chocolate chips I have never ever had chocolate chip butterscotch cookies before of course I was tempted! I mean what harm could it have done it was just one cookie but I still said no. After my last class I was happy to head home to eat a yummy salad, but as soon as I walked through the front door my Mother greets me with a chocolate dipped cone from Dairy Queen. (SERIOUSLY?!) it must have been national temp Diana with as much junk food as possible I looked at my mom looked at the dipped cone and politely said no. It is very difficult to start a new habit especially when there is old habits lurking around every where, it could have been very easy to just take the cookie and the cone and eat them say something like "oh I could start eating healthy tomorrow" but in order to start things right and do them correctly there must be discipline. I was very proud of myself for saying no and sticking to my guns and my new challenge. what challenges are you surrounded by? are you someone who can say no or do you prefer to say Yes! and enjoy things as they come without thinking about the consequences? what small changes could you make throughout your day that can change your habits? think about it and drop a comment or keep it to yourself and have a fantastic time.

Hello everyone!  My name is Diana, I am a 24 year old mom with two kiddos (that I absolutely love) and I also am a student at Red Rocks Community College. In my English class I have been challenged to take on a 30 day challenge, starting on September 28 and being finalized October 28, 2015. I have chosen to incorporate 21 Day Fix from Beachbody to help me during my 30 day weight loss challenge because it has many ways in which it teaches how to have portioned meals what should be on your plate and how much. Also, it comes with a daily at home workout routine with a last but not least Shakeology a supplement shake that I can take for breakfast and after my workouts. very excited to use these products but what I am most excited for is my change, I am choosing to lose weight for my kids to be able to run around with them ad not get tired so easily or run out of breath and ask for a break, to be healthy and to be able to fit in my darn little black dresses again! Diana BC (before children) would always be in heels and dresses I just want to be able to fit in jeans again and this challenge will be the beginning to my weight loss journey so stay tune to hear about the first day of my challenge I promise it is super funny!
