10 Day Fitness Challenge - JOIN IN

Get ready to take on the next 10days (starting Monday)! This is truly pampering your body, mind and spirit! I highly recommend shopping on Sunday, prep everything at home, chop up and separate everything into plastic bags and tupperware – you want everything easy to grab and go. Success is being PREPARED. Fresh organic veggies will only last 2-3days be carful not to overbuy and waste it. Your chicken and fish can be separated into portion sized meals and frozen.

Take an herbal colon cleanser.

GREEN JUICE – it is so good for you!! Feel free to skip a meal and just have a juice. Your body will get all the nutrients and vitamins from the juice. Trust me, if you have a juice for dinner, you will wake up feeling great. Your skin will GLOW. You will surely not die from missing a meal ;)

WORKOUT in the MORNING! Working out first thing not only sets your mind right but keeps you focused and feeling healthy for your meal plan. Trust me, if you don’t by the time the evening rolls around you will be tired and lazy. I find getting up early and having that solitude is a real treat (but getting out of bed at 530a is HARD, once your out, it’s all about you). If you have time workout in the evening, and nothing wrong with a double! Yoga in the morning, jog at nite or jog in the morning, swim at nite – whatever works best for you. Steam if you can and have access to it – sweating is key!

CONSISTENCY & COMMITMENT, the more focused and committed you are to the plan the better the results will be. Stay with it. The group is here to support!

HAVE FUN! This is all about you and giving yourself that much needed attention. I LOVE US!

Here is the PLAN!
AM WORKOUT

Green Tea or hot lemon water Coffee if you must, don’t let not having coffee keep you from being successful, use stevia for sweetener and almond or soy milk.

BREAKFAST:
Oatmeal, greek Yogurt or high-fiber cereal w/ berries or eggs, tomato, basil and 1 slice wheat/nutty toast

POST WORKOUT/ MID MORNING SNACK:
Kale Juice (kale, agave, water, lemon) or Green Juice

PM WORKOUT

DINNER:
Chicken breast or fish, fresh veggie salad (chopped spinach, Tomatoes, Celery, Cucumber, Corn, Basil w/ lite vinegrette add shallots for more flavor)

DESSERT: Frozen fruit

TIPS:
- Keep an eye on everything that goes into your mouth
- Drink adequate water: 64 ounces + per day
- Add an extra piece of fruit if you are feeling extremely lethargic
- Get at least seven to eight hours of sleep per day

If all of these guidelines seem too daunting to take on at once, feel free to mix and match - you could follow the menus but allow yourself one small cup of coffee. Make it work for you, but remember that the more you adhere to the plan, the bigger difference you'll feel.

Let's DO THIS!
