]]> Happy Mother’s Day…a day late, to all my Mamavation Sistas! Wow week 5 wasn’t too good for me. Let’s start with the successes; I drank all my water every day, I ate slowly every meal and I made healthy food choices 95% of the time!! I only exercised 2 days and I didn’t visit Pete Cohen’s site all week. Speaking of visitors…I did have one, Aunt Flo has been miserable this week!
So, unfortunately for me that means I am up a pound.

Looking a head this is a crazy week…it is production week, my Homeschool Musical Theatre class puts on its production on Thursday evening which means I will be busy building sets, collecting props and running rehearsals…as well as doing everything else I always do! I’m trying to plan some meals that I can take with me when rehearsing and building sets so that I don’t succumb to the McDonald’s runs as I have in the past.

I was just reading about AquaHydrate and wondering if their high-performance sports water would give me more energy to get through the next few crazy weeks. I am a pretty picky water drinker so I don’t know if I would even like it but I am willing to try it!

This week’s goals are: to survive production week, drink my water (today is day 22 with no soda-yes, I am bragging!), make healthy food choices and exercise at least twice this week (hey, I’m being realistic here!). I am looking forward to tonight’s Mamavation TV show and hearing what Dr Renna has to say about nutrition.

]]> Well, here we are again, another Mamavation Monday post. I can’t believe it is May! This is such a crazy month for me we have a piano recital, musical theatre production, finals, 2 graduations, a graduation party, Mother’s Day, 5 birthdays, and the start of summer semester! Phew, I’m tired just thinking about it. It is going to take a lot of work and focus to keep hitting my Mamavation goals with everything else going on.

This week I did well with my eating and my water; drinking a minimum of 2 liters a day. Today is day 15 of no soda!! I only exercised twice 🙁 plus spent Saturday walking Busch Gardens in the 90 degree heat. I really wish I had some Earth Footwear Exer-Walk shoes so that every step I took would be burning more calories than in my current sneakers.

I lost 1 pound this week, for a total of 5 pounds so far, which I am ok with. I’d like to lose another 5 pounds before my birthday at the end of the month. I am going to accomplish this by continuing to drink my water, eating healthy, listening to everything Pete Cohen is teaching me and exercising at least 3 days this week.

]]> Hi, I’m Cindy and I am addicted to soda…(your turn…”Hi Cindy!). Anyway I have been addicted to Mt Dew and Coke for years and nothing diet or caffeine free here, I want full strength or nothing at all. Well I am proud to say that today is day 8 of no soda…and my kids are still alive (hee hee). For the 2 weeks prior to the start of the Move It and Lose It Challenge I had begun weaning myself off the caffeine (I don’t drink coffee or tea so soda was it), knowing  would have to cut it out of my diet if I was going to succeed at this challenge. I haven’t had any headaches…due to weaning myself down!

I LOVE working with Pete Cohen his coaching is gentle and positive and I am learning a lot. I succeeded in eating well and making wise choices. My new favorite breakfast is the Morning Sunshine Protein Smoothie from the All Whites website. I woke up this morning to realize I was out of Chiquita bananas for my smoothie this morning 🙁 The smoothie fills me up with fruit and protein and keeps me going all morning. I have also gotten in all of water every day-a minimum of 2 liters each day! I am still struggling with fitting workouts into my schedule but I did get in 3 this week!
So there is the lovely scale picture for the week and I am proud to announce that I am down 3 pounds this week for a total of 4 so far during the Move It and Lose It Challenge! I am also proud to announce that I am now a member of the Sistahood! mamavationsistahoodseal
