Piyo day 8

Piyo Day 8 = define: lower body! That felt FANTASTIC today!!!!

We had an early (10AM is early with 3 kids, right? lol) play date today so I had to put off my workout till this afternoon. We spent the morning running around the children's museum. The boys LOVED it! We will be back. Unfortunately, we never found the people we were meeting but, they didn't mind!! :)

I'm thankful today's workout was a short one, I didn't even dread having to do it! I think that was a first. :)

Things that happen when my workout is later than normal:

One kid jumped off the trampoline onto my back while planking. Twice.

One kid hung a bra from my toes while doing a downward dog split.

One kid drove a train down my back while doing a downward dog.

One kid put his empty bowl of food in my arms while doing a child's pose. Twice.

But, I did NOT STOP! #kickassmom ;)

Day 1 of the 3 Day Refresh -- husband approved

Rob started the 3 Day Refresh today!

He weighed in before leaving for work at 229.8! He was shocked. But, he's been in 'beast up' mode since we received the program in the mail sooooooo..... lol

Here's what I packed him for work today:

Vanilla shakeology, vanilla fresh, fiber sweep, carrots, hummus, banana, & cucumbers with apple cider & olive oil.

He said he felt great all day! Not hungry, no pooping (tmi but seriously, you know you thought it too when you heard 'fiber sweep', lol!).

He stepped on the scale when he got home from work for the hell of it & was down 6 pounds! WHAT!? I can't wait to see his results by day 3!

He did get a bit testy when he was late for dinner. But, we remedied that pretty quickly with refresh veggie stir-fry.

I forgot to take a picture of the actual dinner I made but, here's the recipe:

He had this plus another vanilla fresh shake.

Afterward, he asked if he was done eating for the day because he was feeling snacky. But, he just drank water (we don't have tea). It didn't help that I made cabbage for myself for dinner -- one of his favorites! So, we'll be having it again Thursday when he's done with the program. :)

Here's day 2 prepped for tomorrow:

Vanilla shakeology, vanilla fresh, fiber sweep, banana, celery, hummus, & tomatoes with apple cider vinegar & olive oil.

This is seriously more than he ever eats at work so I'm hoping it continues as well through day 3. :)

4. Baked bread, cheese & green peppers -- I wish I could say I only ate this one. But, I ate 1 1/2 more with just cheese & bread! #keepitreal

5. Sliced tomato

6. Vegan strawberry shakeology with banana, unsweetened almond milk & ice (trying to stop the cheesy bread binge! it worked:)

7. Celery

8. Cabbage, broccoli, green peppers with spices & organic veggie broth

9. Plain yogurt with vanilla extract & peanut butter

I may have overdone it in the secondary vegetable, fruit & healthy fat departments but I nailed it in the veggie department! lol

Day 7 = SWEAT! For a sec, I couldn't get off the floor at the end, lol

Piyo day 8

Piyo Day 8 = SWEAT! I couldn't get up off the floor at the end for a sec there, lol
I'm starting to get way better at push-ups though. So quickly! I'm shocked, I honestly thought I would just never be able to do them! And I was mostly ok with that...... lol

I hadn't noticed the first time through this one but she references runners a lot in this workout! If any of my runner friends hadn't considered this before, you should take a peek!

And now, to move a crap load of stuff downstairs so we can have the carpet replaced. Yippeeeeeew! ;)
