If you follow me on Instagram, you have seen some of my progress pics and have seen the results I've been getting with my diet, training and supplements. In the last 8 weeks that I've been training with Miguel, I have seen some dramatic changes in my shape and I'm elated.
Miguel, as most every trainer does, has his clients on a list of supplements. The things that he recommends that we use are pretty simple, basic and natural. However, I had a really rough experience with the supplements; I was unable to complete a workout without feeling like I was going to throw up or explode. Couldn't even think about taking the required second round after my workout, and I didn't want my post workout meal. I thought I'd have to forego the supplements, even though those are what help you through your workouts and all.
But then I got in touch with my brother and tried the same supplements recommended by my trainer, from Advocare, and they worked awesomely. Plus they taste great. So finally!! And after a couple of months, here is what I look like now (still eight weeks til the show):
One excited chick right here!!!
So now, here I am, less than 8 weeks til the show. Some days are more difficult and others are super easy. The only way I stay sane is by keeping my routine. Wake up, cardio, then eat meal 1. Drop my daughter off at school and go to work. Eat meals 2-4 and take supps. Workout and pickup my daughter. Eat meals 5 and 6, go to bed. Anything outside that routine throws me for a loop. And any sleep less than 6 hours seems to make me get sleepy around 1-2pm the following day.
Today though, I feel on top of the world. :)
