Monday- 90 days Oh Thanks Shaun T

My goals are my goals and I want to see them all accomplished.  This blog is going to be about me working through those goals with the ultimate possibility that I might come out at the end of 90 days much more fit than I have ever been in my life. 

I decided to take this route all because of an Insanity infomercial.  As I sat on my couch and watched Shaun T(creator of Insanity) talk about the concept of working insanely hard for 90 days; one thing stood out to me about what he said which was why wait a year to see results.  If you give it all you got you can see results in 90 days.  I thought hmmm..   I want to try it! (Not Insanity- I am not Insane) but more so working hard at fitness for 3 months. 


What does that mean for me? It starts with goals. I needed to have a starting point ( current stats) and ending point which is an optimal weight of 135 and 12% less body fat that I have now.  Goals are funny like that.  You can say them out loud, then write them down and finally do them. For me its just that easy.  Goals are meant to be conquered just the same that love should be surrendered,  so here I am at the beginning of my journey getting ready to give it all I got day in and day out so that I see amazing results in 90 days.  



Monday I woke up late- 4:34am came and went and I didn't get up until 4:54...which made me 20 min behind.  My back up alarm went off at 5:10am so I guess you could say that I was 15 min earlier if I had succumb to sleep longer and slept in to my alarm.  Got dressed for gym, grabbed my bag (that was packed the night before) and sleepily walked down stairs to pack all my food that I prepped the night before.  Which was:

B-Oatmeal (1/2 cup) Egg whites
S- Can of Tuna and Pineapple slices
L- 4oz chicken 1/2 cup brown rice with green beans
S- Protein Shake
D-Salmon green beans
