Losing Weight = Smaller Boobies

So, I had this conversation a couple weeks ago with my friend Kendall...who by the way is looking super sexy and fit these days! =) However, we both ran into the same situation... The sad part about women losing weight is that the first place you see it is in your boobs! I am glad to be losing weight and getting fit, but I have to say that I have seen a significant decrease in the cleavage department in the past couple months. Obviously breast size isn't the most important thing...but I do like my boobs! =) I know almost all women at some point have either put on weight or lost weight...or both. And I"m pretty sure about 90% of you would agree that one of the first places you see change is your boobs. If I could have it my way...I would keep my fat boobs and the rest skinny...but I guess you can't always get what you wish for! However, I will take smaller boobs if that means a smaller waist and buff arms. Sincerely, Flat and Fit

What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger!

The answer is yes - that is if your first question is "does this girl really like Kelly Clarkson??" I do and I really like the song as well! It has a nice beat and a good message which is quite pertinent to my life and current state of mind! 2 days ago I ran my fastest timed mile ever and yesterday not only did I do my first wall walk but I did them throughout the whole work out - almost 4 sets of 4! I say almost because my stomach didn't touch the wall a couple times for fear of face planting. Another big accomplishment was practing my hand stand push ups. I don't have them yet but I was practicing going up in a hand stand then coming down in a slow negative. The moral of the story is that I am at a place where I really feel like I am pushing myself and I am accomplishing something in every work out!I feel much stronger and excited everyday to see what I can do!

Sugar Attacks Your Liver Like Alcohol

This is a great article!

http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2012/05/07/the-sweetener-that-is-more-dangerous-than-alcohol.aspx

Really, if I had to choose...I would totally go with alcohol...at least you get a good buzz going!

But honestly, I have tried to decrease consumption of both. The majority of my sugar intake comes from fruit and my coffee creamer (I just can't drink black...I've tried!) It is crazy how much sugar people intake in a day and the problems it creates for our bodies! I am currently spend quite a bit of time around children and it is crazy to see what their diets consist of! It is mostly sugar and processed foods! Not to say that I didn't eat that way either when I was younger...but I also ended up with pancreatitis...so go figure!

For the next 30+ days (until June 30) I am abstaining from alcohol as well...I figure my liver really needs a break after this last month! But June 30 is my Bridal Shower in San Diego so I figure I deserve a few glasses of champs!

New Photos!!!

So I know I am super slack on this blogging thing....but my other goals are going well so far! Also, Tyler and I stared the 1500 burpee challenge - do 1500 burpees in 1 month. So far so good! We decided to try it because one of his friends did the 3000 burpee challenge...I decided to scale it down a bit!

Lately I have been feeling great - eating well and working out! A little drinking on the weekends...but that never hurt anyone!

I have been traveling on the weekends for the past 2 weeks and for the next 2 weeks so I am trying to make sure I am extra strict during the week so I can have a bit of fun on the weekends.

Anyways...below are the overdue photos!

Another blog to come soon...hopefully!
