Always somethin new!!!

There is ALWAYS somethin new...  Its really hard to keep up... 

Yes, I'm still walking... and still contemplating the marathon... I do really want to do it ... but I know it DEFINITELY will be quite an undertaking.. but NOT IMPOSSIBLE.... 

I've always liked dance... as early as elementary school.. loved ballet... so I've reverted to some exercises I used to do and some New York City Ballet work outs.. it seems to be a little better on my joints.. and also .. am awaiting my Fluidity Bar!!  It is definitely a great mix of exercise.. 

During this time of regrouping ... and getting back into "better" shape.. I've also found another great company ... that I have been doing some indepth research on .. as their products have AWESOME qualities, benefits healthfully and financially... looking to get started with this in the near future... soo... please keep in touch for further exciting details..  

Aloha & A Hui Hou!!!

So here it is !!!  I have been invited to run/walk the Honolulu Marathon... December 2013... !!!  Yea, okay .. you can stop laughing now.. !!  Let me explain.  While yes, I understand your laughter and skepticism... and I know when I tell my family ... they're gonna think I'm nuts !!  I am pretty much out of shape.. but have been really working towards the "best shape I can be in" even with my uncooperative knees... but you know what... I never thought in a million years I would have a 2nd Degree Black Belt in TaeKwonDo either.. but I did it!!  So I'm going to do my research.. and really actually consider this.  I really need a goal ... to work towards.  

So I think I just might try this... !!!  I am going to record my thoughts, trials and tribulations.. through this blog.!!  Everything healthy here, you know.. at "Healthy Haole!!"  maybe I should change this to "Crazy Haole!!" Lol!!  

Now for the mental and physical preparation, but most importantly.. PRAYER and LOTS OF IT!!  They say its all about being consistent which... well.. lets just say its not my strong suit.. :( RIGHT NOW..

I am convinced that consistency and focus in our lives are probably the two most important qualities to posses.. and if we are not already pretty strong in these areas... I've found that we better make it a point to do so.. ya know what I mean??    I guess this would also fall under the same category as discipline, no??  So, as with raising children... getting and then keeping in shape also follows along completely with this topic of conversation of being consistent, focus and discipline.. There are so many things sooo very intriguing and interesting it makes things so very difficult to stay on track.. But one thing about me I am very stubborn and I really need to use that quality to my advantage FOR SURE! Wish me luck!!! 

So until next time... 

Aloha & A Hui Hou!!! 

Wow this is a little more difficult than I expected... 

I remember in earlier years I could just not eat for a day or two.. and fit into a dress or lose a little pooch in my bikini.... so sad to report ... NOT ANYMORE!!! LOL !!!

But I am determined and NOT GIVING UP!!!  I am still maintaing my 90 Day Challenge.. but unfortunately ... this plan is sooo different that what I have let myself become in the last few years...  I am a MAJOR SNACKER.. and LOVE the CRUNCH in things..  but I started a week ago this past Sunday.. and have had a few kind of rough days... but still lost a few pounds... You have to remember that it didnt take a week or two to pack on these xtra rolls!!! haha!! So we cant expect to remove them and make them disappear that much quicker!!  

It is really much easier and cheaper, I might add, to grab a bag of chips than chopping up some celery or an apple !!!  

All in all my 90 Day Challenge.. is still goin good.. just have to REALLY start making the REAL HEALTHY changes.. !!!  

I am on my way from "Fat )&)(*^) to Fabulous!!"  Join me!!

A Hui Hou kakou malama pono!! 

I cant believe all this!!!!

A dozen eggs - 1/2 cup broccoli - 5 peaches - 2 chicken breasts - 1 1/2 cups frozen yogurt - 1 1/2 cups bran flakes - 18 oz of tomato juice - 5 oz cheddar cheese - 3 cups of cooked lima beans - 15 slices of whole wheat bread - 20 spears of asparagus - 2 cups of mushrooms - 30 whole apples - 10 stalks of celery - 3 tomatoes - 3 pineapples and dont forget 30 prunes!!! 

Thats alot of food!!!  But I'm excited to say that I really pretty much ate this TWICE today!! and I might even have room for a little snack !!! LOL!!!

I have been drinking my shakes or should I say healthy drinks.. since this past Sunday ... and am already down 4lbs...!!!  I dont just have the shakes.. you can eat a healthy dinner and work on a couple of approved snacks.. but know I am on my way.. 

Now I need to get back to studying.. mid term is coming up.. 

Hope to see you again soon..

Aloha & A Hui Hou...

P.S. Cant wait for desert!!

OKAY, MY SECRET IS OUT!!!

Okay, my secret is out!!! 

I am sick and tired of feeling sick and tired.. not to mention carrying this extra spare tire.. I think its more like an SUV now... around my waste!!!  I am so tired of feeling like (&*& and looking worse!!!

 I have struggled and struggled... and I'm JUST SICK OF IT!!!  I have tried EVERYTHING short of amputation of a limb just to lose 20lbs.!!!  A little shows.. but no great shakes !!! I am now on a personal MISSION..!! 

A 90 Day Challenge..!!! I am bound and determined.. to accomplish this goal!!  I am doing this for ME!!!  Along with this challenge I am on my way to be certified as a Master Personal Trainer.. and complete my whole vision with my MaryKay and the great awesome wellness benefits of essentials oils of doTerra to help others to feel great INSIDE AND OUT!!!

Its always been a vision of mine to REALLY help others and now with my own success story well on its way..

Mahalo E Ke Akua No Keia La!!

Why can't I be my own Nutritionist???

Okay!!! So I've had a pretty enlightening experience today... while out promoting MobileMama and ran into a very nice woman who has done well for herself.. in eating healthy!!  She was really VERY informative... and would have loved to sit there and chat all day!!  Carol has actually been cooking healthy for years... and also offers a Personal Chef program if you have a very busy schedule that she prepares your healthy meals for you so you can pick them up each evening for the next day.. This is so AWESOME... 

But "I" am hungry (haha!! figures) for the in depth knowledge myself.. I really have a "craving" (everything has to do with food!!) and want to study and know about nutrition inside and out.. Soooo 
I have had this book FOREVER!!!  and decided I'm going to start to devour it ... and digest .. everything possible about food and nutrition... !!


Now I'm hungry... 

A Hui Hou... more later.. gonna go raid the fridge!!

OKay... I get it!!

Okay, I get it!!!  I cant get away from it!!... No matter where I go .. no matter what I watch or whatever channel I'm on YOU'RE THERE!!! I cant get rid of you!!! I've tried to sell, hide, forget, cover up, and shove under my bed, YOU'RE STILL THERE......STARING ME IN THE FACE!!! I've tried so many other diets, plans, pills, formulas and gimmicks ... I'm TOTALLY frustrated, exhausted, and completed depleted in every way... I can no longer walk over you or by you...its no use.. I GIVE UP CHUCK & CINDY!!! YOU WIN!!

I did my workout today TOTAL GYM.... and am on the road to transformation... 




NAMASTE ..... a hui hou...
