Beach Workout for Fat Loss

I am currently in my hometown, Oceanside, California attending my 20 year reunion and visiting family. While on vacation it is easy to use it as an excuse NOT to continue with your fitness and health plans but it really is possible to stay on track.

I pack my sandbag shells and Jungle Gym in my suitcase so I could get a great workout no matter where I am.

Knowing I was staying with my sister-in-law who lives 3 blocks from the beach made it easy. I brought my sandbag shells and filled them up at the beach. I recorded my circuit I did that is excellent for fat loss. Read more

Merry Christmas!

Just want to say thank you to everyone who has followed me this year. It has been fun getting to know everyone. Quite a few of you have made awesome transformations.

I will have updates soon on a 12 Week Transformation Challenge. It will be a lot of fun. Make sure you are a member of FitHomeschoolMoms.ning.com so you get all the updates before it launches.

Before I log off the computer for the next 3 days, I want to wish you the Merriest Christmas ever. My family will be attending Christmas Eve service and spending the evening reflecting on the amazing sacrifice God made by coming to earth as a human baby. It is hard to fathom that God in his almighty power would choose to become a baby to a young girl and carpenter.

Again, Merry Christmas everyone. I will be back on Monday!

Hugs~~

May Showers

Time sure has flown. These last few weeks have been busy with end of the year activities.

My oldest had her junior prom and state championships for tumbling.

I’ve been researching accelerated distance learning.

Boot camps are starting to increase in number due to the wonderful weather in Indiana.

Summer vacation is on my mind as I look longingly at the pool that’s been covered all winter.

My mother is going to be moving in at the end of the summer.

It’s a wonderful time of year. After growing up in Southern California, I have learned to love Spring, Summer and Fall in NW Indiana. I still don’t like winter though. I’m not sure I will ever get used to the cold and being trapped indoors for months at a time.

Every January, we start talking about moving somewhere warmer. Our work here is not yet done.

I’m kinda rambling today, huh?

Well, it is time for another workout of the month. I will have that posted soon with the video links attached. What I’m going to give you is an entire month’s plan to get in shape before it’s time to put on that bathing suit. I hope everyone will take advantage of it. You could be a whole size smaller by next month if you’re consistent and you’re nutrition is right.

If you have purchased my transformation guide, then you should be familiar with Antonio Vallardes, the author of the Urban Healthy Cookbook. I am putting together a conference call with him soon. I will let you know when I have a date finalized. This will be a perfect opportunity to ask him questions regarding nutrition.

On May 25th, I will be on the Ultimate Homeschool Exo Radio Show with Cindy Rushton at 8 pm CST. Be sure and catch that show. I will be discussing fitting fitness into your homeschool schedule.

Keep me updated on your progress. It’s so encouraging and motivating to hear the difference fitness has made in your lives.

Hugs~~
