B.A.M Fitness with Danielle

Even after moving bags of rocks from my car to the front of the house today (still need a lot more bags & to finish cutting out all the little baby trees), I still pushed through my workouts. Needless to say I already feel sore, hope it won't be so bad tomorrow.

Planning on painting my upstairs bathroom tomorrow. It's the first step to getting it in order. Next will be the counter, refinishing the tub, then the floor.

Pushed through these today even though I am still beat from going back to work this past week. So instead of trying to cram a weeks worth of workouts from the program calendar into my off days, I will do the just one day of workouts (3 10 minute workouts) per day. The days I am at work, I will go and walk during my lunch. Luckily where I work has a nice walking trail.

Tomorrow I will do 2 walks from my walking app to account for Monday & Tuesday on top of my 3 workouts. I think the girls will enjoy going for a walk in the park 😁

Today was my first day back at work in the ICU and it was a rough one. Needless to say I will NOT be working out on the days I work. I'll catch up on workouts throughout the week to make sure ALL workouts for the week are completed by Sunday.

I'm beat 😩

Finished this week's workouts. 3 more weeks to go. After I'm done I'm thinking I am going to do the 6 deluxe workouts before moving on to the next program.

Cardio still really isn't my thing. Seems like ever since I had covid back in 2020, my lungs & body can't handle Cardio that well. I still push through it though 💪 my Abs are also on 🔥🔥🔥

Double today since last night was another rough night with the baby. Colic sucks, that's for damn sure.

Today is also the end of the single 10 minute workouts. Tomorrow starts the stacked workouts for a total of 30 minutes!

I am curious to know what I have lost so far....

Below are the food lists for each color coated food container. The top 1/3 or so of the list contains the most nutrients so it is recommended to eat from the top 1/3 of the list about 80% of the time.

You will also notice some symbols next to the foods listed. The + and x are for carb cycling. While carb cycling you eat the items that have the + and don't eat the ones with the x. IF stands for intermittent fasting. The foods with IF next to them are great foods to eat while doing the intermittent fasting. If there is a number next to an item, like Asparagus has the number 10, 10 asparagus is equal to 1 green container. It saves you a little bit from having to measure it out using the container.

I swear they put my least favorite move at the end of every program lol

I DO NOT LIKE BURPEES!!! Or as they call it in this program "Carlito pushups"

Next we will figure out your calorie bracket. This will change throughout your journey. It is recommended that you recalculate this every 30 days or based on your workout program requirements.

First you need to decide what is your goal? Is it to lose weight, maintain weight, or build muscle? You also need to decide how often are you going to workout. After deciding, you will choose the formula best for you. Below are examples of the formula to lose weight depending on how much you exercise.

To lose weight:
Current weight x 11 = caloric baseline
Caloric baseline + 400 = maintenance calories
Maintenance calories - 750 = calorie target for weight loss

Based off what number you get for your calorie target, you will find what container plan you fall in.

Doubled it up today due to missing last nights workout. I was beyond exhausted after dealing with the baby crying & screaming for 2 hours. I tell you what, colic sucks 😫 Needless to say, tonight was much better. Baby girl got a nice warm relaxing bath before bed along with baby gas medicine. She is sleeping like an angel tonight!

The first steps using this plan are pretty simple.

#1- Weigh yourself & write it down. You will be tracking your weight at most weekly. It is best to check your weight first thing in the morning, naked, & after using the restroom. Try to track your weight at the same time of day too.

#2- Progress pictures. Take before photos & then weekly updated pics. Even if you don't see the scale move much, your photos can show changes.

#3- Measurements. You will measure both arms, chest, waist, hips, & both thighs. Tracking these can also show progress even if the scale doesn't.

#4- Write down your why. Why are you doing this? What goals are you trying to achieve?

Love this workout. I can definitely feel my core burning! 🔥🔥🔥

Portion Fix is the other Beachbody nutrition plan. As you cab tell by the name of it, it's all about regulating portions.

There are 3 principles to Portion Fix.

#1- Portion control. This plan has color coated containers to help you regulate the portions of fruits, vegetables, proteins, etc.

#2- Balanced macronutrients. The 3 main macronutrients are proteins, carbs, and healthy fats. Autumn recommends 30% protein, 40% carbs, and 30% healthy fats.

#3- Eliminate highly processed foods. Pretty much stay away from foods with added sugars.

This is the last week on single workouts! Next week begins the stacking workouts!!! Can't wait 😁

We have reviewed the entire 2B Mindset program. Next I will discuss another meal plan, Portion Fix.

Stay tuned...

Are you an emotional eater? Let's change that. The first thing you need to do is identify the trigger. What causes you to start emotionally eating?

You can use exerciseto help relieve stress in place of eating. Keep track of what you eat & weigh yourself daily.

It may help to keep food out of sight so it stays out of mind.

Ask for support from friends, family, and even the 2B Mindset Community. We are all here to help you!

Definitely needed the stretching today. Did not fix the porch like I wanted but I did almost completely gut the front garden bed. Also started putting in the lava rocks..... need more bags lol

Emma also had fun being outside with me today. We had our alone time together.

Fall off track? It does happen! I cannot tell you how many times I have fallen off track... I have lost count.

To start again, identify what caused you to go of track.

What you can do to get back on track, rewatch all the videos of 2B Mindset again. You can also hit your reset button and get the things that don't work for you out of sight so they remain out of mind.

I was able to get my workout done earlier today! Even got stuff done around the house today. I was able to deep clean and reorganize my dining room and got my new hanging plants put together and up!! Next will come wall art and a centerpiece for the table. One day we will also refinish the wood floors but that's way down on the list.

Definitely going to need the yoga tomorrow. Tomorrow we are fixing our front porch. One corner is sagging lower than the others.

Double workout today since i didnt workout yesterday. Upper Body workout is slowly getting easier. Had to take a break during Cardio to deal with a fussy baby.

Today's workout seemed a bit easier than last weeks. That is a good thing because that means I am getting stronger!!💪 I can't wait to start getting back into the heavier/harder workout programs... just gotta start slow. I got a week and a half of the single 10 minute workouts then it's 4 weeks of stacking 3 of the 10 minute workouts together.

I will also be going back to work starting June 3rd... Hopefully I can keep it up with working out after a long 12 hour shift 🤪

It is OK if the scale goes up. There are many reasons why it may go back up after losing weight. You could be constipated, had too much salt intake so you're retaining water, and women when it's that time of the month, it can make your weight spike up. All you need to do is drink more water & move! As always, stick to the 2 bunnies & keep tracking every day. Focus on losing the next 2 lbs.
