Here is my new stretch routine to the song "Try" by Colbie Caillat.


"Wannabe"

Here is my new aerobic dance to "Wannabe" by the Spice Girls. This dance is for Melinda, my sis in law, who suggested I choreograph a dance to this song.

Intermittent Fasting


Since my daughter was born I have been trying to get fit, healthy, and energized again. I felt like I was doing what I needed to between exercise, eating habits, and sleep. But for some reason I just wasn't seeing the results I was hoping for. I started hearing about intermittent fasting from two of my brothers. I did some research on it to make sure it was safe and beneficial and I was pleased with what I found in my research. So I took the leap. I decided to try the 16/8 schedule. So I only allow myself to eat between noon and 8:00 p.m. The first couple of weeks it was pretty hard. I always do my workout in the morning between 8:00 and 9:00 so by the time noon came around I was DYING! My body was definitely not used to that. Cardio days were especially tough. But after awhile it started getting easier. I still get REALLY excited for lunch... just ask my kids. I even have a fun alarm that goes off at noon and me and the kids do a funny little happy dance. But I don't feel like I am going to be sick or pass out before noon. And the biggest reason I am posting about this is I lost the weight, quite quickly, that I had been trying to loose for a year. I have passed my weight goal! I'm also to the point where my body is used to this. I feel like this can stay as a part of my life style and it doesn't make me depressed. Just to be aware, not everyone will have success with this. For example, one of my brothers that did this for awhile did not get the results he wanted and decided it was not for him. But you never know until you try it!

"Invincible"

This aerobic dance is thanks to my 5 year old son. While I was pregnant this last time he heard this song while listening to the Lego Batman soundtrack. He asked if I could write a dance to this song for him. At the time I was so sick and could hardly do anything so I told him once the baby was born I would write a dance for him. He never forgot. Right after my little girl was born he was asking me to write the dance. That was 11 months ago. I finally got to it! He loves it! It's an awesome song too. It really pumps me up. I love that my kids like to dance with me and are excited for new things. It really keeps me going.
