Chris Powell 12 Week Vemma Body Challenge Week 2

Week 2 has now ended! I was really nervous about weighing in this week.  When you have worked so hard, you want to see movement on the scale.  I was ecstatic to show another 2.7 loss!  I will take it!!
Grand total of 5.4 lbs loss!

I had a good week at the gym and logged many minutes there.  Here is some of the things I did:

50 min. Mountain Hike
61 min. on the elliptical
95 min. on the treadmill
15 min. weights
110 min. Aerobics

Carb Cycling is so easy for me.  Some of my favorites meals this week were:

My Chris Powell Protein Shakes & Bode Burn



This is a product that I have daily! It gets me through the day and the bode burn gives me the energy I need to finish the day!  Love these products!!





This is something I eat when I am on the go!




 

And on high carb days, I have been craving grapes!



 Week 3 starts now......as the weeks go by, it gets easier.  I hope to continue with a loss.  Just as long as its not a gain!

Chris Powell 12 Week Vemma Body Challenge Week 1

Week 1 has come and gone.  It was a really good week with lots of exercise done. As mentioned before, my method of eating right now is carb cycling.  It really works for me!  This is a 12 week challenge that I am doing with the Vemma group, but a bunch of family members are doing a diet challenge.  I am pretty motivated trying to stay ahead of the pack. ;-)


 Here is how it went:

2.7 lbs. lossed
110 mins of strength & toning class
110 mins of Aerobic
146 mins on treadmill
70 mins on the elliptical
58, 261 steps


I really tried my hardest to be prepared.  If I had ready meals or snacks, I wouldn't grab something that wasn't healthy.  Trader Joe's is my favorite store to shop right now.  Here are some of my favorite items right now.

This is so yummy and I eat it with

And daily in my shakes I add power greens.

 

The second week has begun.  I hope to do just as well!!

The Vemma Bode Challenge for Me!

Oh my....where do I begin?  There has been so much going on and a lot of changes on this journey of mine.  Nothing bad! Actually some great changes!  Let me start here.....

Around six weeks ago I took the time to read this book.  I was at a frustrating plateau and struggling to stay focused.  I was working hard, but the weight wasn't coming off.  After reading this book I was very excited!  It was awesome!




Chris Powell believes in carb cycling.  The carb cycling caught my interest because I have had great success with the low carb plan.  I can flat lose the weight on low carb, but it isn't a long term plan for a healthier lifestyle.  But this plan was doable! 

I was so pumped and I immediately down loaded the Vemma Bode App and got started! For one month I followed the app, without the products that they suggested.  At the time I didn't know much about them and just followed the plan from the book.  The app was a big help.  It reminded me when to eat and gave wonderful tips to make me successful.  It was also amazing having Chris and Heidi Powell on my iPhone giving me tips and cheering me on!



The plan was working! I did so well the first month that I took the steps to find out more about the Bode 12 week challenge and the Vemma Bode products.   As like many plans it does have a cost, but I was committed and ready to do what it took to be successful.  I am already 6 weeks into the program and two weeks with the Vemma Bode Products.  The results with the Vemma  Bode products have been wonderful.  I am excited to see where I will be at the end of the 12 weeks!    {I do not represent these products; this is solely my opinion.  But if you decide that you are interested, Vemma Bode has a great friend referral program and I would love it if you mentioned my name.}

NSV:  After 6 weeks - 3.5 inches

{  If you are interested and finding out more about the vemma products let me know.  I can give you the rep's information.}


I am getting ready to finish my sixth week, but because of the products I started over.  So really I am ending my second week.  Ten more weeks to go on my challenge!   Goodness!  There is so much more to talk about but I will save it for another post!  I hope all of you are finding success in your healthy journey! You got this! Don't give up now!
