I have challenged myself to a raw green smoothie challenge. So I bought a Vitamix 5200. And lots of organic fruits and veggies. Today is Day 3. I was supposed to start this blog 3 days ago along with a before picture....a slight fail you say? Nah I just didnt feel like doing it. Plus it was too hard to take pictures of myself in bad lighting and a questionable bikini. So I will recruit the help of a non judgemental photographer over the weekend. The Challenge is a 3 month Challenge but I decided to make it a 4 month challenge so I have one month to get it together. It's my challenge I can do what I want to.
THE CHALLENGE
1) Drink 2 Raw Green Smoothies a Day
2) Train according to "The New Rules of Lifting for Women" by Lou Schuler. (this book is interesting on a fitness level but horrendous on the diet front)
3) Yoga twice a week.
4) 20 mins. (interval) cardio daily
CURRENT LIFESTYLE
1) Drink smoothies occasionally after working out or in the morning for breakfast. Blend fruits and supplements in a $20 blender and choke it down.
2) Eat veggies, cooked and uncooked, and fish twice a month. Have not eaten dairy products, or any type of meat in two years. In love with MSM and Superfoods.
3) Train 3 times a week regularly. Tues/Thurs 1 hour Bootcamp 1 hour Boxing, Wednesday Yoga.
THE REASON
1)Over the past two years my skin has gone from great to bad to horrible. I am hoping that by upping my raw intake I will have better skin and achieve the raw "glow" I hear so much about. I have been naturally going in the raw food direction and figured this would be a fun way to test the waters.
2)On the fitness front I just want to be shredded. Seriously shredded. Before I die I would like a picture with a six pack.
