READY TO START A NEW!

Life got in the way of my sexy figure! At least that’s my excuse. After nearly four years of wonderful marriage and one beautiful child, I’ve discovered that I’ve developed a private hatred for scales and mirrors alike. I’ve had enough of life getting in the way, and it’s time to get back into the best shape of my life! T-minus 60 pounds to go!
Let me start off by saying, I am blessed. Andrew is my loving husband, and we have a beautiful little one named Eden. I am able to stay at home with Eden while Andrew is able to work from home. We love to sit and watch movies or play video games while eating candy and pizza on our time off. Soda is something we drink daily. Taco Bell is a place we visit 2 or more times a week. My name is Christy Lowen, and I am ready to start a new.
As a mother, I set the path for my daughter. Whether it is a path to gluttony and laziness or one to a healthy and Godly lifestyle, it is my choice. As a wife, it’s my job to be and feel sexy for my husband!

WEEK 1: Goodbye Couch and Junk Food, Hello Pavement and Salad!

Rid House of ALL junk food: CHECK

Stock House with fresh fruits & veggies: CHECK

Break my body: CHECK

So this last week has been a great week for me.  Andrew decided he is going to join in on the craziness! We worked our butts off this week, but I know we can do better.  We have quite a few stairs in our new home, and going up them is not the problem! Every time I walk down the stairs I let out 16 squeaks of pain (one for each stair).  My butt and calves are killing me!!  We’ve worked out every day, once a day. We have rid our house of all junk food and gluten products (I’m gluten sensitive :p).  Low fat salads, blueberries,  plain non-fat Greek yogurt and chicken have been the staples in our diet this week.  Today we are putting in the order for Transitions Bars, Shakes and a few frozen meals for when we are on the go.  Thing are starting painfully well!  Should I post a picture of myself?  I don’t want to.  I am feeling too fat and too embarrassed to even go there! Maybe a myspace head shot! Nah, maybe next week.  This upcoming week I am going to step it up by getting in 2 workouts a day. Here we go!
