It’s not a diet but a lifestyle change. It’s okay to treat yourself every once in awhile, in moderation.

Cleanse done!

Finished my Shakeology cleanse last night 3.5 pounds lighter. I lost the bloat and my pants are no longer tight which was my goal. It also helped me get back on being disciplined with my eating. So far today I’ve logged my food into myfitnesspal.com and have already finished my workout and it’s only 1pm. Yay me! My workout today was P90X Chest & Back plus ab ripper X. It’s day 1 of my hybrid P90X/Turbo Fire workout plan. Feels good to “push play” and “bring it”!

Starting this tomorrow. Will post my progress and results. I need a good kick start.
