How could WEEKS be better then WEEKENDS?

Well first week is done. Hardest part was Saturday and Sunday for sure. I normally use those days to graze the fridge but seeing as how I couldn't eat anything yummy it went by super super slow. I measured my body fat and I'm 26.7 so I'm anxious to see where I go from here. As it stands right now there is only me and one other girl doing the show, hopefully some more girls join in so their is a group. I felt today could have gone a little harder, but I was pouring sweat and felt worked. I might hit the gym again tonight and do some more cardio or go for a walk or something. I'm not feeling as tired as I was last couple days which is good. I need to get my weight, I hate weighing myself its so depressing, not to mention that it's pointless because I ALWAYS weigh more then I actually look. I would be excited to weigh about 130...that would be crazy. Anyways, I'm just rambling on..procrastinating at work.

Update soon.

One Day Down.

So today was my first official day starting my program. Woke up at 5:30 this morning to be able to get ready and be out the door by 5:45. I hate being late. Well as expected it kicked my ass. It was actually a simple over all body workout but simple can still mean HARD. I haven't really been getting to the gym the last couple weeks so it was a good jumping back into things. I got my TOP SECRET meal plan and have been diligently eating every 2-3 hours. I love knowing what to eat and just having to eat it. No guess work is every needed. When I'm done with a meal I'm just done and that's that. Pretty excited about the transformation to come.
Other then training things are a little stressful at the casa. I've been working thankfully, but with the economy my boyfriends business is taking a huge hit and leaving us stressing paycheck to paycheck. It doesn't make it easy to focus on things when your so worried about BILLS, FOOD, BILLS ect. We always seem to make it through though and I don't imagine this time to be different. He is my forever.I just can wait for some consistent months and when we have those we will NEVER let them go. Till tomorrow...

The camera doesn't lie.

Well this week is shaping up to be pretty descent. Minus the fact I have consumed so much crap the past 7 days and only hit the gym, maybe twice. My excuse of course is that I'll be training my ass off for the next 3 months even though I still haven't heard back. Went out last night for my friends birthday and I always take a TON of pictures hoping one will be a keeper. Last night and the last couple weeks actually have been pretty depressing in the picture department. Even if it adds a couple pounds it doesn't add 15, something needs to be done and ASAP. Still waiting to hear, hopefully things are still a go.

Why Broke + Fit ?

Well since I'm new to this whole blogging thing I accidentally deleted my first post. Which without the first post I'm sure it was a little random reading the second one. I'm  pretty disappointed considering I tried being real clever in the first one when telling everyone (my zero followers) why I choose broken +fit. But today I have no patience for that so I'm giving the short version.
I originally was saving up to hire a personal trainer to reach my goal of having a ROCKIN bikini body. When in the mist of searching I came across a opportunity to win 3 free months of training by submitting an essay explaining how it would change my life. Well after waiting to hear back for about a month, I didn't end up winning. However I was offered a chance to train for a bikini fitness competition in LA instead. It's a 12 week intense program designed to get you in ridiculous shape!! I'm beyond excited. So I'm using this blog to document the next three months of my life. If you read the previous post you will know that i don't know what I'll be eating or when I'll be training,but that I am  finding out this week. I'm READY!!
To get back to why I choose the name Broke+Fit for the blog, originally I thought I was gonna go broke getting fit...but maybe not so much huh!!!

Patiently Waiting...

I'm still here, I thought I would be writing a lot more, but I just heard back from the trainer about the competition on Saturday. I thought it was going to fall through for a second. So basically once I meet with her this week for set-up of my training schedule and food I will be ready to start on Sunday the 12th, which is 12 weeks from the Sep 10th comp. Its really all I have been talking about so I can't wait to start. It's one thing to be taking about it, but do be in the process of doing it is a whole different story. I'm excited to feel sore,as weird as that is. This weekend  has been a disaster because everyone that I have been telling as been urging me to eat and drink whatever I want. There reasoning is basically what mine has been... I won't be able to eat so many yummy things for so long or maybe ever again. It seems harmless, but I feel like a FATTY now. I have had things I would never eat in the same week. Pasta, Chinese food, ice cream, BEER. I don't really drink but have probably had more beer the last 2 weeks then I have the last 3 years. I'm nervous but excited to start this journey, I'm going to be diligent and focused. My MO is normally to train really hard for about 2 months and even though there are results, they aren't the results that I want so I would tend to back off and get discouraged. I guess the best part about this training program is the accountability that I will have towards competing in the bikini competition. I obviously will not slack off if I know I will be in front of a auditorium full of people in an itty bitty bikini!!! Anyways, hopefully more news to come soon!! Patiently waiting...
