Phase 1, Breakin’ It Down

Last week I wrote a breakdown of my 12 month plan to age 35, so this week I decided to break down what I plan to accomplish in these first three months. As a recap, my goals for the first 3 months were:

  • Lose 15# and 5% body fat.
  • Complete at least 3 rounds of 21 Day Fix or 21 DFX and commit to being an inspiration to my Beachbody clients!

SO, here’s my plan for the next three months!

January 20 – February 13 (25 days):

  • Biggest Challenge: 4 day girls’ weekend in Denver will include plenty of drinks
  • Biggest Benefit: 4 days of my husband being gone. Easy to keep eating & workouts on track when he’s gone. Ha!
  • Goal: lose 5# (to my old standby weight of 161# that I was at for the conception of both my children) just in time to start rehearsals for a dance show / fundraiser for the local animal shelter that I’m getting the guts to participate in this year. Yes, I will share pictures. It’s quite the ordeal 🙂

February 14 – March 12 (28 days):

  • Biggest Challenge: rehearsals 3 nights a week for the show will cut into my family time and make it hard to dedicate even more “me” time to my workouts
  • Biggest Benefit: extra time spent moving my body & less time sitting around drinking beers after work should help my progress along since we all know weight loss is 80% diet anyway 😉
  • Goal: lose 5# more (to 156#) just in time for the final performance of said show mentioned above.

March 13 – April 19 (38 days):

  • Biggest Challenge: Stella’s 11 day spring break will throw us off schedule
  • Biggest Benefit: weather getting nicer & days longer so easier to fit in workouts
  • Goal: lose 5# (to 151#) just in time for my girls’ trip to Hawaii on April 23rd! The last time I did a big trip was to Norway in May 2010, and I weighed 151# at that time and felt pretty darn fantastic. I’m excited to get back to that!

Failing to plan is planning to fail

    Dance show??? How did that not produce more explanation? Looking forward to hearing more about this!

  2. Who are you going to Hawaii with and how in the world did you find affordable tickets?!!? Awesome goals JJ 🙂

      1. WOW!!! That’s awesome. Where are you staying? Will you see Pearl Harbor? The filming site of LOST? JEALOUS! 🙂

        1. VRBO 🙂 Staying on the North Shore in Kauai. No idea what we will be doing, but probably lots of yoga on the beach, tanning, relaxing, and drinking. 🙂
