Getting Fit!!

I love food!! My diet use to consist of heavy, fried food, PIZZA chips and dip and chocolate. My gym membership would go unused for weeks at a time.  I would eat good one day but not the next I would go to the gym 2 times a week.

So I decided to change all that.  I want to live a long and healthy life. Eating right and getting in shape is something I am doing for me. It’s a life choice not something I can just do every now and then. Oh and one other thing has made me really kick start this new life style and that my 10 year high school reunion is coming up in just 4 months.

Meal Prep
I am really getting into my meal preps. I make my snacks and lunch meals for the week on Sundays. Meal preps save me time, money and prevent me from eating bad stuff throughout the week.  I try to keep my meal preps simple so its quick and easy. I have my fancy meals at dinner time.

1st I make a list of what I want to eat for the week. Going shopping and I like to use fresh foods. If you want to you can use frozen.


2. I line up all my Tupperware so I can do the assembly line.

3. I start cooking my rice on the stove top.

4. chop veggies then season and cook them.
*I only use coconut oil when cooking.

5. Season and cook my proteins.

6. When all is cooked I use measuring cups to put them in the tupperware.
1/2 cup rice, 1/2 cup veggies and proteins.

Then I store them in the fridge. 

Snacks take little effort. It’s just putting things in small Tupperware or bags. 


This takes me about 1-2 hours. It seems like a long time but really it’s not. So much easier than having to make my lunches every single day.

Working out!!
I work out 5 days a week.
I meet with a personal trainer 2 days a week. I workout on my own 3 days a week.  I do a lot of weight training and 1 to 2 days of cardio.
