A Journey to a Fit Life

I have begun my journey (with the finace by my side) into Fit Girls Guide 28 Day Jump Start. 

We are currently only 3 days in, but I can feel the difference in my body. I am SORE like there's no tomorrow. However, I realized tonight, just how out of shape I am. I used to be able to do push ups and such with ease, but not now. I am struggling to get through these workouts. I push through it though. I know in 28 days, I will be so thankful for the pain and struggle. 

I have to remind myself of the challenge motto for this month... #progressnotperfection

I have been out of the fit scene for quite some time... 10 years, or more! I am not happy with how I feel and look. With my wedding in a few years, I don't want to walk down the aisle in a tired, sick body. While I may NEVER be a size 3 again, my insides will be healthier and happier. (Anyone who knows me, knows my lifelong struggle with food allergies & stomach issues.) 

I stumbled upon this program on Instagram. If you ask my fiance, I am really good at getting info about anything/anyone on IG. He says maybe I should have gone into private investigating rather than teaching. Hahaha... 

The thing that stuck with me with this program was that this was a program being used by real girls, getting real results, and nothing extra needed other than the book and a few grocery bags. There are no meal replacements, you are eating 3 clean meals with clean snacks throughout the day. They only require 30 minutes of exercise for 6 days a week. Best part... EVERYTHING is laid out in the books for you. Shopping lists, meal plans, workouts, snacks, substitutions, meal prep schedules, and so much more! It's a no brainer! I purchased my books back in March and I just started this month! Better late than never, right? :) 

I am excited to end this week and see what happens! A new menu comes and the workouts increase in strength needed. The upcoming menu includes a LOT of tomatoes and tuna! *gag* So, for this picky eater, I am SO THANKFUL for the substitution lists!
