REVOLT ; GET MORE GREEN

So everyone knows by now that i'm this REVOLT meal plan and workin out hard ! So I just wanted to share a tip with y'all on "dieting" ...





Get More of the Green Stuff


While more cash is great, I'm actually talkin the
leafy green vegetable lol... My favorite is baby spinach! I eat it all
the time.
I love it in my salads. Not every in this house is a fan of it, especially not Josiah. I even heard about filling up my pasta dishes with this. This way, you get to enjoy the meal but you'll be filling up on spinach and not carb-heavy pasta! I have yet to try this, but I will soon !



My
other green friend is lettuce. I like to buy the big heads and
use the crunchy hearts for salads. Those big, floppy outer leaves are my
secret weapon for sandwiches and hotdogs.....instead of bread!











GENIUS!!!

Who would have ever thought of this idea?!? Wrap
them around some deli turkey with a dab of low fat honey mustard & a piece of cheese and
you'll never go back to bread. And the fact that you are skipping carbs and will look great this
summer isn't a bad either!




Now this past week on my revolt journey has been terrible!! I've gotten use to not eating the JUNK, the hard part for me is still planning and cooking the meals weekly, working and Josiah, take most of my time. yes, I have been hittin the gym like a crazy person and so far I'm actually at 155lbs. through this whole process I've gained one pound.I can kind of see fat disappearing from my back (also known as my back fat) BUT I still have a lot to lose, because my stomach is still there. I can't help but to think it's from the one bite I take a day of something I'm not suppose to be eating! Or that one meal I have to eat pizza because I'm at work with no dinner at 1 or 2 in the morning! BUT I know it's from lack of sleep and staying up and eating for about 48 hours straight. I can't wait until I get my normal hours back. I just want to eat and sleep normal again!

I LOVE SODA

I love soda.



With out a doubt, there’s nothing like a nice cold Pepsi Max to go with my chips and dip! .I also drink Diet Coke. I have had so many people for years ask me why I drink "diet" coke and not just regular... "oh your on a diet" ... but no I was never on a diet, I'm just addicted to the taste of Diet Coke with lemon! (seriously people, try it lol)



I have heard of the bad chemicals (aspartame) they put in it, but it's kind of like cigarettes. I know the bad is there but I still drink it and still smoke.



Now, I am drinking Sparkling ICE . This is basically naturally flavored mountain spring water with no caffeine or carbs or calories. I got it from my nearest 7/11









 

I don’t drink a lot of it, that's why I'm glad they come in bottles, because they usually last me a few days. Just as a soda can lasted me one day and a bottle of soda lasted much longer... I've also tried different flavors, but none are as bearable as the kiwi strawberry!



PS – I must confess that I haven't totally kicked the Pepsi max or the Diet Coke. But I drink a LOT less of it thanks to this. lol ;)



Are you a soda junkie, too? What’s your soda beverage of choice?

Revolt Link-up

Good Saturday Morning y'all!



Today I'm here today to tell you about my revolt journey. I will be linking up every Saturday for the next 6 weeks. (at the least) with Jill @ Forever the Brave.  If you don't know what the whole revolt rage is about you can check out my recent post about it HERE. 



Everyone that knows me, knows that working out and meal planning is "not my thing"... But when someone offers your free meals plans and free workout plans for 6 weeks, who wouldn't take that?!



This past 2 weeks have been like hell! lol I just wanted to get that out! I love my donuts, chips, and coffee creamer! The first week was the "Sugar Detox".  I did have one creamer in my coffee every morning because I sometimes have to stay up for 48 hours and I NEED my coffee, and black coffee is just something I CANNOT do! Although this week hasn't been so bad as far as the meal plan, I still haven't eaten any sweets, in place of dessert I eat a cutie or pistachios (since I have recently become addicted to both)



Every Saturday is my free day, but since I have cheated a little through-out the last two weeks as far as the creamer goes (& bites of Josiah's chicken nugget).... I will not be using these days to my advantage! OKAY! maybe I WILL! hahaha I even vowed to workout on the "rest days". Yes we have two rest days a week, but I have chosen to work out a minimal of 30 minutes those days as well. Since I plan on getting my gym membership next week. I'm going to make it into my daily routine from now on.






eww...i also found out...men like butt sweat?!?!?!? LMAO!



My starting weight as of Sunday March 2nd 2013, was 157. Last week the 9th I weighed 154, lost a total of 3 lbs. Remind you that was "detox week". This week I might have gained 1lb back....sooo that's 2lbs in two weeks.. not like other woman have been doing but, good enough for me?! I plan on keeping this up. my life style will be for ever changed!  Less Sodas & sweets and more workouts...at least that's the plan & we all know how plans go!!! lol Hopefully I can keep up with Nichole and her workouts!

  

Now is the perfect time to join me and hundreds of other people on this adventure to get fit and healthy!
