The Plan: About Weigh-In & Measurements

where do I buy that mirror or can I have her  self-esteem?

I can go on without weighing myself EVERY SINGLE DAY, I guess I like to be torture.

The Plan:
1.  Do a weekly weigh-in on Mondays, I used to do it on Saturdays but, due to past mistakes I am changing it to Mondays.
     Saturday Mistake: After seeing beautiful numbers on Saturdays, I went over board on Sundays (day off). I over indulge myself and ruined a great week of hard work in one day. My hypothesis is that if I weigh-in on Mondays I will be more careful on Sundays, it makes sense right?

2. Take monthly measures of:

• Neck
• Chest
• Waist
• Hips
• Right Thigh
• Left Thigh
• Right Calf
• Left Calf
• Right Arm
• Left Arm

The Plan: About Food Intake

According to My Fitness Pal

my fitness goals

I need to consume 1,200 calories a day and burn 182 calories a day (thats about 7 minutes on the treadmill) to lose 1.8 lbs a week. Sounds easy right?!  So how is it that I done get it done carajo*??!!! 

Because I get lazy and sloppy and I might love to sabotage myself considering that I keep stoping and starting ALL THE TIME!

Anyways, I read somewhere on the net, and it wasn't My Fitness Pal,  that it doesn't matter what you eat, if you stay within your daily calorie intake you will still lose weight, why do I like this statement? Because I don't like feeling deprived from food. I love food and I love eating. I can't never do, neither I want to do a all-liquid diet or so famous cleansed. I need to feel food in my mouth, I need to chew food!!

The Plan:

1. I am going to stay within the 1,200 calories a day. I don't like counting or adding or tracking but, I know that people who keep a food journal are more successful on losing weight PLUS it helps me later on, especially when I have fallen off the wagon, I can easily go back and see what foods have helped me and I can get back on track

2. I am going to follow Chris Powell's 7 day carb-cycle because I know that it works

3. I will take the pleasure of creating flavorful and delicious recipes and post them here

4. I will drink, drink and drink lots of water, at least 1.25 gallon a day

5. I will eat every 3 hours-speeds up metabolism- and I will stop eating 3 hours before going to bed, it will make me hungry making my body to use more stored fat and by breakfast time I will be a BURNING MACHINE!!!

6. Buy lots of veggies and fruits and have them ALWAYS in stock (they are quick perfect snacks) 

*in this case: for heavens sake.

The Plan: About Exercise

Ok, so I know for fact that if I don't plan for what I want to accomplish I automatically fail. So I need to have a plan for the exercise part of my goal: Lose Weight and Get Fit.

I also know that I need to get my whatever workout in early in the morning for the following reasons:

1. I get it out of the way early and I don't have to be thinking ALL DAY LONG that I HAVE TO DO IT!

2. I like getting ready early-showered, hair & makeup done- for the rest of the day

3. When I postpone the workout for "later", 99.9% of the times I don't do it

4. I hate seeing woman wearing their sweat clothes, especially their sweat pants on public besides the gym and I don't go to the gym, so please take them off before going some other place than the gym!!!

5. Helps me to stay in track for the rest of the day meaning that I am more conscious on how and what I eat, puts me on the: Do I really want to waste those precious calories on this? I DON'T THINK SO mode.

6. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the high I get from exercising

7. I also LOVE concentrating on what I am feeling while exercising, you know, like when you do squads and you concentrate on your thighs and derriere and you imagine how you are sculpting them, AWESOME (said on Oprah's tone).

So here is the plan:

1. Workout early in the morning, preferably at 5:30am, from Mondays through Saturdays, I will take Sundays off form EVERYTHING!

2. Do 30 minutes of HIIT cardio Mondays through Saturdays (High Intensity Interval Training)

3. Do strength training on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays
I will do Chris Powell's push-ups/squads/sit-ups combinations and I might throw in some Jillian Michael's Shred in 30 and Ripped in 30
