1 MONTH UPDATE

If you guys remember I started Nursing School back in Jan and i gained 13 lbs since. Well  i went back to working out and eating healthy in August . I was so nervous about keeping up during September since i started my last semester but i have been doing really good because i have gone from 161lbs to 151lbs ! 

-1inch around my arms

-1 inch around the biggest part of my stomach

-1% of body fat

I am über proud of myself because i stuck to my macros but i also gave myself a day of two during the week to have any meal i want . REMEMBER to ALWAYS reward yourself but don't go too crazy eating . I am happy to have finally found my balance.

TAKE TIME TO ALWAYS LOVE YOURSELF & REALIZE HOW FAR YOU’VE COME !

Lets put the loosing weight aside and talk about self love today ! I feel like i sometimes get so caught up looking at instagram fitness models / models / others and judge myself for not looking how society wants me to look . I am not perfect ! i have stretch marks on the front of my arms , my butt looks like a cinnamon bun swirl ! BUT GUESS WHAT ! i have learned to love all of it know why? my arm stretch marks remind me of all the weight i loss and how hard i worked to loose it and better. LOVE YOUR IMPERFECTIONS BECAUSE AT THE END OF THE DAY YOU NEED TO LOVE YOURSELF BEFORE ANYTHING.We tend to forget that the grass is always greener on the side of instagram/ Snapchat but not on the other. Find yourself, and what makes you happy!Us females aspire to look like others when we should be inspiring to be ourselves but the 2.0 version. . In case you forgot today , remember YOU are STRONG YOU are WORTHY YOU are BEAUTIFUL YOU are I̶M̶PERFECT YOU are YOU

CABLE SHOULDERS WORKOUT !

Did 3 sets of 12

IMPORTANCE OF SHOULDERS WORKOUT

Strong shoulders make most arm movements easier. Every upper-body exercise involves your shoulder muscles to some extent, so strengthening your shoulders enables you to lift heavier weights for chest and back exercises.

Shoulder exercises also can prevent injuries. If your shoulders are weak, you can even injure yourself while opening a dresser drawer

August 7th i made year Vegan . i cannot lie to you guys though i did have cheese & ice cream here and there.... i went cold turkey so i am proud that i at least stopped consuming meat.. i need to find vegan pizza .... WHY DID I BECOME VEGAN? plenty of reasons ...  1. Health problems 2. was always curious  3. Better lifestyle 4. I learned about animal cruelty and did not want to be part of it anymore. i got this drink at Wegmans & its amazing! tasted like chocolate milk <3

BULGARIAN SPLIT SQUAT & STEP UP COMBO

Split squat-Although it is called a single-leg exercise, it still uses both legs. The split squat can be performed with the rear foot on the ground, or with the rear foot on a bench.

Step up-The move combines the action of the lunge with stepping upward, like climbing stairs, to really target your butt and upper hamstrings. All you need for the move is a short bench, sturdy chair, or solid coffee table to step onto.

(3 sets of 12) (3 sets of 12 reps on each leg for both workout) make sure you do it back to back . 1 set of 12 squats then switch and do step up using the same leg.
