THE
ABsolutely FABulous
14 Day Challenge
14 days worth of Ab Workouts, Healthy Habits & Positive Thinking
DAY 7
Ab Challenge: Obliques!
3 Sets of 20 on each side.
Please see Allison below:
Healthy Habit Challenge: Check your labels. If there are more than 20 ingredients and you can't pronounce 1/2 of them put the item away.....Not all snack bars are good for you. Some of them have too many ingredients that are pretty much just sugar. WASTE of a snack.
Positive Thinking Challenge: Eliminate the words no, don't and can't from your vocabulary for one day. I did this yesterday and while I found it hard it was funny how many times I caught myself saying these words unnecessarily! Example: My husband asked if I could skip the gym to hang out with him on the couch and be lazy. Saying yes felt kind of nice.....
So I've been on a roll with posting outfits this week. Here is one that I was pretty excited about. Just a plain dress where I added a thrifted button up and belt. Belts are my cure to everything. Oh and hot tubs.
I loved your real life example of the "positive thinking" challenge... I am going to try it today - on our way from Prince George to wherever we can find a nice place for wild camping. I may have to say "not right now" to the bear who wants to have me for a snack...
ReplyDeleteNice challenges, especially with the positive thinking one! I actually don't know if I can do it...no wait, I CAN do it (eliminating the don't!)

ReplyDeleteI'll try to say yes more too!
ReplyDeleteI could not agree more about the ingredients situation! I hate the list of ingredients that is soo long it takes up over 1/2 the box. YUK. Fruits and veggies please.
ReplyDeleteCute Outfit!! -Jen
I wish I had half the motivation that you have to exercise! And I agree, granola bars can be pretty nasty when you actually read the nutrition facts! I can't stand a lot of them anymore because they're just so sugary. Also, yes, belts are miracle workers. I don't know what I'd do without them!

I need your help. I need to come up with a workout and eating plan to help me loose these ten lbs before my sister's wedding. You are so motivated, maybe you can help me?
