It's early but I am UP and MOVING! Excited for Day #9

It's Day #9 of our Fitness Challenge!!


Our Challenge for Today is:
40 sit ups
38 crunches
33s plank
20 pushups
32 Jumping Jacks
32 High Knees
12 Squats
12 Lunges (per leg)
Any feedback on intensity? How are we liking the adding cardio to the program?
I pushed my workout to 9:30 pm last night and felt great! I just keep on pushing. Week #2- I got this!
My Meal Plan is the same- had Oatmeal with 1/2 a banana for Breakfast, snuck in an 80 cal Greek Yogurt for snack, my Shakeology will come into play for Lunch (which is coming up) and then adding some all natural rice pudding that I slow cooked yesterday for my 150 cal snack. Dinner tonight will be ground/brown turkey taco salad with tomatoes and a nice, tall glass of H20. Then workout with my peanuts for snack before bed.
I am still working my way towards my goals. Hopefully everyone else is too!


I am a HUGE fan of Shakeology and would like to inform everyone what Shakeology is all about:
More than 70 different ingredients were chosen for Shakeology from around the world for their potency and their ability to deliver the nutrients your body needs. Here are the key nutrient groups that these ingredients deliver:*
• A variety of Protein and Essential Amino Acids to help build long, lean
muscles and reduce food cravings.
• A wide variety of Antioxidants to help counteract free radical damage
that can lead to degenerative diseases.
• Phytonutrients to help alkalize the body and promote detoxification to
restore health and vitality.
• Prebiotics, Probiotics, and Digestive Enzymes which aid in improving
digestion, regularity, and nutrient absorption.
• Vitamins and Minerals your body needs to function at its best.
Bottom line: This is about giving your body the best nutrition possible and a daily commitment to improve your overall health.
What can it do for you?
Shakeology is an effective way to help you lose weight, increase your energy and be the healthiest you can possibly be. In an independent 90-day study, participants who replaced at least one meal per day experienced some amazing health benefits.
Shakeology can help you:
• Lose weight
• Reduce cravings
• Increase energy and stamina
• Promote healthy digestion and regularity
Proven results
As part of the recommended Shakeology program of replacing a meal with one shake per day, along with regular exercise and a balanced diet, participants experienced even more remarkable health improvements.
The study also showed that participants were able to:
• Reduce total cholesterol by 30% on average
• Reduce LDL (“bad”) cholesterol by 38% on average
• Reduce cardiovascular risk ratio by 24% on average
• Reduce oxidative damage caused by free radicals on average by 45%,
which can help decrease the risk for developing degenerative conditions
like heart disease, dementia, and arthritis
(In a 90-day study, participants replaced one meal per day with Shakeology, ate a balanced diet and exercised moderately three times per week. Total cholesterol was reduced on average by 30% and LDL cholesterol reduced on average by 38%.)
Why do people need Shakeology?
It’s hard to eat the recommended daily servings of fresh fruit and vegetables every day, especially with today’s busy lifestyles. Convenience foods, like packaged or fast food, are so processed that important nutrients have been destroyed. Shakeology helps provide what you’ve been missing, delivering a wide variety of nutrients from whole food sources to meet your body’s needs. Plus, each highly nutritious, low-calorie serving helps to keep you full and satisfied between meals.
Reaching specific customers is easy when you target their particular needs and concerns. Here are suggestions for how Shakeology can help them achieve their goals.
Beachbody Customers: Lose weight by replacing one meal per day with a shake. Helps sustain energy needed to exercise, which helps lower total and LDL (“bad“) cholesterol.
Baby boomers: Helps reduce oxidative damage from free radicals that causes rapid aging in the body and leads to degenerative conditions like
heart disease, high blood pressure, dementia, and arthritis. Helps you have more energy to enjoy life.
Busy parents: A quick and convenient way to get complete nutrition. Supplies more energy to help keep up with kids and a hectic lifestyle.
Busy professionals and college students: Easier to make (and tastier) than a salad. A quick and convenient way to get complete nutrition on a full schedule. Excellent as a healthy snack when eating full meals is not possible.
Health-minded people: Save money by replacing many nutritional supplements with just one shake a day.
People who don’t like fruits and vegetables: An easy and tasty way to drink the nutrients equal to those in a bowl full of fruits and vegetables.
Shakeology simplifies nutrition and makes good “cents.”
Shakeology costs approximately $4 per serving ($120 per month) for
high-quality antioxidants, 23 vitamins and minerals, super green
phytonutrients, whey protein and essential amino acids, prebiotics and
digestive enzymes, good carbs, and low fats. Or you can purchase each
supplement separately, at a cost of about $250 per month.
