Workouts, Weddings, and Websites

I've talked and talked and talked about Insanity and done it multiple times but I still haven't finished it. This time there will be no excuses! My class load is winding down now and my internship hours are more consistently 8-5 so now I can and will jump into an exercise routine. I've been eating healthier and maintaining my current weight but I know a little exercise will put me where I want to be for next month.

I'm going to a wedding next month and I still haven't bought a dress. Mainly because the shopping here sucks but also because I'm not in the shape I should be in. So this weekend I will find a dress one or two sizes smaller than I am now and that will be my goal for the wedding! Pictures coming soon! 

I'm excited that I get to share my journey with you all and I hope that you would share yours with everyone too! I am currently looking for women or men to share their weight loss journey in my site soooo if you're interested email me at skinnygirlattitude@gmail.com today, tomorrow, and the next day.

ZP Challenge

Well I'm a Management Intern at the local Walmart and they have this wonderful challenge that I have started. It's 4 weeks long an the point of it is not to lose weight but to live a healthier lifestyle. Although you all can't get all of the benefits of the program because you may not be an associate you can do this right along with me. 

What you need:
Calendar
Pencil/Pen
Determination
Will Power
Goals

Every week you have to get a total of 10 check marks on your calendar. Five of these check marks will be from exercising (at least 30 minutes each time) and the last five check marks will be from healthy eating choices (choosing water over pop, etc.). 10 check marks a weeks = 5 days a week which leaves 2 days for you to not be as strict about your diet or exercise routine.

Also included in the ZP Challenge booklet is a recipe book. I will periodically upload those recipes so that you will have access to them as well. 

I hope you decide to participate in this challenge along with me and don't forget to email me at skinnygirlattitude@gmail.com if you have any questions, comments, or concerns.

Back at One.

Hey folks!

I'm back it's been way too long and I haven't been living the healthiest life. But that's all over now and I'm starting over with the my whole weight loss journey and this time I want more input from you guys about your journey. Lets work as a team to get fit, live healthy, and have that skinny girl attitude!

Currently I'm doing the Great 48 fitness challenge ran by Miss Jia and her friend Ariel. It's 48 days of fitness, healthy living, and hard work. At the end there are prizes to be won but its not about the prizes it's about the journey.

In the past I have wanted to start one of my own challenges and I will do so soon. So be on the lookout for it! Attached are my Great 48 entry photos.
