Ok, so let's not worry about sick kids, piles of work on your desk, laundry and anything that is out of your control. It will all get taken care of in due time.
Our goal this week, is clean eating, weight training, and cardio time! It is the last week in month of January so let's make it great!
Gone is last weeks temptations, office birthday cake, donuts, and that yummy desserts at your husbands birthday dinner. Did you walk away? did you treat yourself to just a few bites. Remember, treating is ok... just not 24/7 of treats!
Weight training is vital, not just your cardio and eating right. Remember that for every pound of muscle you build, you can burn 30 to 50 more calories per day!! So, build 5 lbs of muscles and you could burn off 250 calories with out even trying!!!
In the first 8 weeks when I started training, I only lost 6 lbs, but, I had lost 9 inches. Five of those inches in my belly/waist!! My body fat was also down by 5%. Even now my body weight is not that low, but, the gain of muscle helps keep my fat percentage down.
Get motivated, see your vision, and just go for it!!

This is so true and yet so hard for females to grasp. Women need to lift weights in order to transform their bodies. Unwanted bodyfat burns within muscle tissue. So the more lean muscle a female has-emphasis on the lean muscle, the more bodyfat she will burn. The days of females only doing cardio for weight loss are outdated! Ladies, if you really want to transform your body, you have to start strength training. Your metabolism will thank you!
