My personal 5 day challenge & GIVEAWAY

Good morning! Its 9:44am on Sunday July 3rd. I am sitting here at my computer waiting for my coffee to cool for just a minute before taking that first magical sip. MMMMM. I started thinking, I have only 7 days until I am wearing my gold ( very tight and very short ) dress in South Beach Miami! I have put on a few pounds since I came back from my PHX and LA trip. So I need to get serious today.
How much difference do you think I can make in 5 short days? I am hoping on 5 pounds. Here is what I plan to do.
1. workout each and everyday for 5 days ( i will be working out today as well, since this is day 1 for 1/2 marathon training 10 week plan- but today is not part of my "challenge")

2. I will record here every single thing that I have eaten and drank each day.

3. I will also let you know how I am feeling and what I am thinking, as well as how much weight I have lost at the end.


My hope is that, I will hold myself even more accountable all week, and that you will see how much I struggle with this. Food is my problem. My baby boy is 2 years old this Friday, and I still have 20 pounds of his 60 pound pregnancy weight gain left. I work out all the time. I eat well MOST of the time. However, when I am bad, I am really bad. And my metabolism does NOT like that.


I lost 9 pounds in the 30 days before PHX and LA. My goal was 10, I was close. Less than 1 pound shy of my goal, but I was still very happy. I am hoping that I can lose 5 this week. And of course, I will be drinking 1-2 SHAKEOLOGY shakes everyday as well. Of course.


Here is what I want from you....I want you to comment on my post each day.....and each day random.com ( or is it random.org?) will pick a winner and I will mail you a sample of my cherished shakeology.......each day! Thats FIVE CHANCES to win! You need to leave a comment and be a follower of this here bloggy.


Contest starts tomorrow!
Cant wait!


 I have included a pic of me in the gold dress, my white dress and my blue dress, all 3 are options for Miami and all 3 were worn feeling sexy and confident in LA, I want to feel the same in MIAMI with Jason!
