1.5 Pounds Away From Goal Weight, Now I am ready to step up my game!!
Posted by: Natasha in My transformation, What's Up With Natasha Today?Hi my friends!!!
It has been a while since I blogged and I hope that everyone is enjoying their summer. How many of you are like me? You are a few pounds from your goal weight and now your are thinking… I am at my goal weight, but now I am ready to get toned and more definition to your new bodies? That’s where I am at now. I got the weight down and now I want to be a little more solid. I came to this thought after taking a picture of myself in a bikini for the first time in my life!! I am not kidding!! I have never worn one before and I am so proud that I tried one on this summer. See the pics!!!
I can’t believe that I am posting this, but I have to say that I am proud. Plus I was just so inspired by some fellow NS members getting their bodies in shape and very well toned. Thanks Tressa and Amanda for the inspiration. You all ROCK!!!!
However, like I said before it is time to get toned with more muscular definition now. I am not in the mist of fitness competition, I just want to look tone and fit. Hey.. you never know though. Hee hee 
So, saying that I have given myself a new goal to reach. Yes, I said it another goal. Here they are:
- Lose an additional 10 pounds (getting to 150lbs). My doctor says that is a healthy weight to keep my BMI in a great range. Right now it is about 24. I want to reach that goal by Oct 1st.
- Increase muscular tone to my arms, back, quads, hell… all over!! Hee hee
- Increase muscular tone to my abdomen area.
These are my goals right now and I will start with that and each month I will post progress pics to see how I am coming along. I am so excited because I found a wonderful weight training DVD by Cathe Friedrich that I can used to get the toning together and now I just need to purchase a few more things to add to my home gym to take it to the next level. For starters I want
- A variety of free weights. I have a 2lb and 5lbs, but they are getting very light to me now. I can’t believe I am saying this. Before they were soooo heavy. Now I feel like I can juggle with them. Ha ha ha!!!
- A weight bar
- A few medicine balls to workout my core.
- A high step or I could just use by step aerobic bench to workout my legs!! I will have to post pics because my legs are starting to show more tone now!! Yey!!
- Elastic bands
- Jump rope for added cardio
- My dream equipment is a Pro form elliptical training. (maybe for my birthday or Christmas?? A girl came dream you know.)
With that above should complete my home gym that will keep in shape and headed to reaching my next goal. I can do it!!
Best Wishes!!
