Day #30 (FINAL DAY): CHALLENGE #1 COMPLETED!!!

Day # 30 of my 30 day Smoothie & Raw Food Challenge


THE END!!!!!!

Word of the Day: "The race is not for the swift, but for those that endure to the end"  

Day #30 came and I reached the end of the challenge and I have no regret. I learn a lot about what I need to do in order to be successful in losing weight. 

I opt not to weight in or take my measurements because it I had a rocky two weeks and my body had plateau and I was not sure of the reason until I took a closer look at the amount of sugar fruits that I was using in my smoothie and NOT enough green ones. 

Please come back to visit to see weigh in results on Sunday 7/7. Also, see in the upcoming blog the July challenge. 

I am continuing my Insanity workout, I am now in the core cardio and balance phase, the rest week and then resumes with month two of the Insanity 60 day challenge.

Day #29: It's a Rough Start

Day # 29 of my 30 day Smoothie & Raw Food Challenge


Word of the Day: "The mind is a power thing to waste, but the mind can control your every move"  By ERH

Its day #29 and I am still in a daze about the work I have been putting in, but the results on the scale has not been moving. I know my readers will remind me that the weight lost is the "bonus" but the main reason for embarking on this challenge was designed to kick migraine. I have achieved that with the exception of "menstrual migraine" for which I am still doing research. 

Overall, I have been feeling fantastic and I am living my best life by watching what I put in my mouth and educating myself on portion control and learning food combination and other important nutrition facts. 

I will continue to learn more about nutrition as I design a plan that will work for me and thus give me the opportunity to help others. 

Today is my rest day from Insanity, but I will be doing the fitness test and
