Nobody ever enters a nutrition plan being 100%.
We keep beating ourselves up over the mistakes we are making instead of putting it aside and trying to be better!
So you messed up today! Big deal!
Snap out of it and try to be better…..
Weekends are not good for me!
Running around all day without enough water and enough food ( or not eating every 2-3 hours)
I will make it a point next time to carry my gallon jug around with me and keeping a cooler in the car with emegency snacks ( protein pancakes, shakes, hard boiled eggs…)
I am going through times not eating enough food 🙁
Thought this could never happen to me!!!
I love food…….
I will have to remind myself to eat every couple of hours and keep handy snacks with me!
I will carry my gallon jug of water around and stop over using caffeine!!!
Make it a point to eat at home most of the week.
Pre cook your food, weigh it and bag it!
We are under estimating the amount of calories we are eating!!!
You need to fuel your body with the right fuel!
Ask yourself everytime you sit down to eat:” What do I want to feed? Muscle or Body Fat?” Use your imagination and picture where this food will settle!!!
Always be aware 🙂
And if you slip up, forgive yourself!!!
It is not the end of the world and it is not a reason to think everything is lost and it doesn’t matter what you do from here on out!
Baby steps!!!
Eventually you will get there!
Excerise
Some of us love to go and eat out in restaurants!
Sometimes it is the only stress relieve we get…..
It is not complicated, really!
If you don’t make a big fuss about it your friends won’t even notice that you special order your food!!!
First of all have water or ice tea , and if you feel you need to drink have one drink but work the calories into your day ( or have a additional workout )!
Choose a lower calorie drink like wine ( about 150 calories per glass)
I am a cheap date since my choice is almost always salad!
X-out croutons, cheese, bacon and everything else high calorie.
Have oil and vinegar on the side instead of the usual salad dressing!!!
I use vinegar only since I know this chicken or meat that is in my salad has probably been marinated……
Steak houses are a great choice since you can ask for no butter or oil on your steak or fish ( or chicken) , ask the veggies to be steamed instead of sauteed…
Ask for dopple veggies if you get more than one side!
Always ( always ) eat a little bit something before you go out!!!
Even if it is a hard boiled egg!!!
Believe me, you will be able to skip the bread basket easier if you do 🙂
If you need a appetizer here are some great choices:
raw ahi tuna / shrimp cocktail / green salad!
Sushi order mostly Sahimi …some have a healthier menu to order from!
Never order dessert or if you want a taste share it and really only have a taste 😉
Just in case ( happened to me before) the kitchen doesn’t allow changes ….tell them you are diabetic or you have allergies!
I know it is a terrible lie, but they will be changing your order to what you need 😉
Going out to eat is not a eating event!!!!
It is a social event 🙂

BEFORE
I decided to join LVFB because I knew I didn’t have the preparation knowledge to compete in a figure competition. I knew I was not in bad shape , but also knew that the form of training that I was currently doing was not going to get me where I wanted be. Before my 12 week program, my workouts consisted of high intensity circuit training 1 hour sessions. When I was given my cardio and weight training program, I question the intensity level because I was not used to that type of training . Surprise surprise !!! I realized that this new program was a bit more demanding when combining the right diet, cardio sessions and weight workouts. I knew I wanted to succeed at this program, so I listened to my coaches and did what I had to do !
AFTER
I knew from the first day we met that our relationship was going to flourish into a good friendship. These to women are amazing. They are there for us at all times and give 100% to everything they do. I admire their dedication to our team and to their careers. There is nothing that gets in their way of meeting or exceeding their goals. They promote happiness, health, success, positive attitude , true friendship, honesty and true love for what they do! Who wouldn’t want to be around this type of person right ? I know I do !!!!!!!! I love you and thank you for everything you have done for me. I’m blessed to have met you both !
LVFB Team
During my 12 week program with LVFB, I had the privilege to meet some of the most amazing, smart, talented, hardworking beautiful women . The unity of our team is like no other. These women go out of their way to help each other with anything. When I decided to compete for the Jay Cutler show, my teammate Samantha offered to let me borrow her competitor suit so I wouldn’t have to spend money . That’s how awesome these women are. During our training sessions, we share our day to day life events including our accomplishments, good times and bad times. I thank you LVFB team for all your encouragement and for being true friends. We are all in it to win it weather you compete or not. You are all amazing !!
Have you ever noticed how things fall into places just the right time?
Or how about the fraze ” when it rains it pours?
Well chances are you are creating your own enviroment!
Think negative and you are attracting negativity to yourself!
Same as if your thought process is positive….everything falls into place….
People that know such things try to stay away from negativity or people that create drama….as simple as that!
It is all a learning process.
Start by turning evey negative thought around and change it into something positive 🙂
I had to go through that a long time ago!
After a nervous breakdown I changed the way I viewed every day life!
Take a deep breath to keep anxiety away and relax your body….
Take yourself into that happy place ( in my case the ocean , listen to the sound of the waves and the wind in your ears…sun on your face…)
Just channel your thoughts into positivity 🙂
No drugs needed!
Keep a note pad with positive reinforcement including goals!
Think yourself healthy when ill!
Research shows this way of thinking speeds up your immune responds and speeds up recovery!!!
Visualization is used today in cancer treatment!
We are more powerful than we think!
It is a gift to us from God!!!
Use it 🙂
