Reality Health Check:

I am currently at the 20 pound mark! go me!!! I want to lose 10-15 more pounds however... Hopefully I can say that I reached that goal when I start graduate school this fall. Please note that it’s not just a superficial thing.  Extra fat is bad for your organs as it “smothers” them and causes inflammation.  Extra body fat also increases wear and tear on our joints and can increase chances of gallstones, diabetes and high blood pressure.

Fact: for every 10 pounds that you lose, you take 40 pounds of pressure off of your knees.  Enough said.  I’m on a mission to save my knees!

May Don't Play 2012 Fitness Challenge

The Fitness theme for the month of May is CARDIO, CARDIO, CARDIO.. I realize that I may have went too hard with everyone for the month of April because a lot of people went home. lol. Although I had 3 women who did complete the challenge with me. So kudos to them!!! So I decided to lighten it up for the month of May. Here is the May challenge. Its not as hard as April but I beleive its achieveable for everyone! If you guys can exceed this then even better! Let the challenge begin!!!!

40 miles
1000 mountain climbers (Some call it a spiderman push-up),
200 burpes
100 Spidermans (Also known as an lower back extension or full swan)

results of my Go Hard or Go Home April 2012 Fitness Challenge

Here are the results of my "Go Hard or Go Home" April 2012  Fitness Challenge...

Update:
Squats: 1982/1000
Crunches: 2196/2000
33/40
Push-ups: 227
Biceps: 724

Mountain climbers: 314

I exceeded everything from my challenge but the running... I came close but I am still upset that I did not get those 40 miles like I wanted. However I am excited because everything else I exceeded. So I am so excited. Also in the month of April, I tried out being a vegan for a week, and I really liked it. I do not beleive that being a vegan is something that I will do for life but I am def going to start incorporating meatless Mondays and Wednesdays in my life!
