Killin it in the kitchen for LEAN MEAN results!

Back in action, but this time I have a different focus....I'm KILLIN IT IN THE KITCHEN!

Most people already know that for months I have been unable to kill it in the gym.... medical restraints have withheld me from doing what I love, and obviously, my body is adjusting accordingly, ie: GETTING LOOSE! This has been one of the many hurdles I have faced this year and I am finally trying to alter my mentality from doom n gloom to ENCOURAGED AND MOTIVATED!

If I can't stay in shape with workouts, I have to redefine my patterns in the kitchen.  I need to put all my energy that desperately craves to be back in the gym, into focusing on new ways to be HAPPY AND HEALTHY!

Gosh, there are soooooo many diets, mealplans and trainers that offer advice on healthy eating....how in the world was I supposed to choose one......left the decision up to my 'go to trainer' Ms. ROCK SOLID!

Her decision........

The 'Fighter Diet' is probably one of the most strict and intense meal plans created for shredding fat and toning up, so of course that is the one Karrin chose for me :)  But in all actuality, she knows just what I need to overcome my recent obstacles...A CHALLENGE! A way to distract my mind from one area of my life and refocus it on another.  An opportunity to make myself healthier inside and out. 

Lane and I are taking on this Fighter Diet together....but he sucks and gets to accompany it with Naturally Intense Training!!

My plan for this blog is to share my journey on this meal plan, creative new recipes, hopefully some physical changes but mostly to keep myself accountable and hopefully find some happiness once again :)

Lane and I will be challenging ourselves to 4 weeks of this 'lifestyle' with the physical goal of losing weight.  My goal is to lose 8 lbs, Lanes goal is to lose 21 lbs.

I will be tracking my food on Fitness Pal (jmass1017) so please add me if we aren't already friends and you are interested in my caloric progress, because if you followed my last blog, you know that is a real struggle for me!

So....here I go, once again.  Ready for a new challenge in my life, just hoping this one brings positive results!
