So I have good news! I have passed my Real Estate exam and I Am officially a Licensed Agent! Woo hooooo
So I did abandon my blog for a bit because I lost my focus due to all the excitement of my license but I am back with full vengeance. I am on my iPad and it's not the best thing in the world when I write on my blog so tomorrow I will continue with my daily blog of my diets and fitness routines.
I also wanted to congradulate my husband for having the top rating app on iTunes! It was even featured in a Apple commercial. The app is called "Billing" which is a credit card terminal for your iPhone, itouch, and iPad. If you have a business you can run credit card purchases on the app. The website is www.spartadata.com
I will see you guys tomorrow!

"The Only Way of Finding the Limits of the Possible is by Going Beyond the Impossible"
My week has started of great! My clean eating and excerise is going smooth. I woke up this morning feel light and refreshed.
The only thing that has me down is the Florida Real Estate exam. I have failed by one point! I have it scheduled again for this Friday. The exam is not easy at all. They give you trick questions and all the answers seem right. This has me on a downer but hopefully I will pass this time.
As always here is my eating for today ( I will post as I consume)
Meal One: 6 Eggs Whites with deli turkey and onions, banana, water
Meal Two: protein shake
Workout:
Plyometrics
Spinning

Earn your Carbs
I had a great weekend. My cold did not totally ruin my weekend! I went to the Everyglades with my son and husband and hiked. It was beautiful.
Today I start my new goal which is "Earn your Carbs". I have done this before my pregnancy when I was doing Fitness competitions and I was very successful with this program.
My day will consist of Lean protiens, veggies, yogurt, and fuitts. In order to earn my carbs such as wheat bread, brown rice, oatmeal, and pasta I will need to have an intense workout. So after I finish my workout I can consume my carb. You only have a one hour window period to do this after your workout.
Here is an article to better explain:

Meal One: 6 Egg white and one Yolk with onions and green peppers., 1/2 cup of grapes, cup of skim milk
Meal Two: Protein Shake
Meal Three: Perdue Chicken Cuts, 2 cups of Spinach with Olive Oil and Vinegar, Low Fat Cheese Stick
Meal four: Yogirt
Meal Five: Tuna Salad with almonds
Workout:
20 minutes of Interval Sprinting
Back and Shoulders

So here is my first thought on this life changing blog:
I NEVER START MY DIET ON MONDAYS. I ALWAYS START TODAY!
Research shows that the percentage of failing a diet and fitness routine when you start on a Monday increases! I know this because it has happened to me in the past. I always start my goals TODAY. So since I started my goal TODAY, I will share with you my weight t, my diet, and my workout routine for today.
