🔥🔥✨✨✨FRIDAYFUNDAY 🔥🔥✨✨✨

Is it OK to start a post showing our body goals? Because J Lo’s abs in the 90s and early 2000s have me in a chokehold. I literally will look at her abs and then go work out lol and there’s others too which I’ll share in the comments. Who’s figure do you love?

Oh, and of course Fabi’s is fabulous lol. I have to go lurk on her Instagram page at least a few times a week to see what she’s posted especially all those sexy swimsuits. Yall gone find me on somebody beach one day soon wearing something just like it lol!

Hey ladies, just popping in to share my breakfast which I Decided to make it a savory bowl of quinoa, grits, roasted vegetables with spinach, zucchini, onions, and peppers and a chickpea salad. This was so hearty and delicious. I cannot finish it all. Also I did 60 minutes on the treadmill today and I could’ve done longer because I made a playlist last night that had me pumped up.

I hope everybody has a great weekend. You got this Queens!

Hope you ladies are having a beautiful day so far, it’s almost the weekend!

Just checking in for accountability today:

This morning I did 30 minutes on that crazy elliptical- it felt harder and my legs were sooo sore. So I ended up doing two rounds of Strength Unleashed with Coach Sammi because I just could not do all 3. It wasn’t hard per se it’s more that my legs were crying. Especially my thighs.

I’m also treating this week as a test or intro and I’ll be redoing week one next week.

My breakfast today is the Quiona porridge I had yesterday with no peanut butter and I added a 1/2 cup of chickpeas for additional protein. It is sooo hard to get protein when you are eating Vegan and you can’t have soy 😢. I’m going to keep trying before I go back to animal proteins because eating this way helps decrease/eliminate inflammation and some of the health symptoms I have been experiencing.

Anyway stay strong ladies, you got this!

Breakfast!

Quinoa porridge- it’s similar to Jamaican cornmeal porridge.

Recipe

1 cup cooked plain quinoa

1 cup almond milk

Heat and stir

Then out into a blender with vanilla extract, almond extract if you have it, 1 tbsp of peanut butter, Ceylon cinnamon and a small banana Blend till smooth.

Top with fruit of your preference- I chose 2. strawberries and a 1/4 blueberries.

You could add egg whites or turkey sausage for more protein.

I didn’t take a selfie of myself today because I was at the gym but I did my workout and it was sooo hard.

I’m following the Strength Unleashed program with Sammi and I did day one yesterday but my legs were too sore for day 2 today which was lower body so I did a 30 minute session on an elliptical.

Yall. This elliptical was from hell! I noticed immediately that the pedals felt really heavy - it was level 1! Each movement took so much effort- this was NOT my usual experience with the elliptical. I had been planning to do a short leisure walk in the park this morning but I could barely get up the three flights of stairs it took to get to my car! The calorie burn count listed also feels too low - it was like lifting weights on my legs with each move.

Anyway I decided to take before photos this morning because of two things- 1 I’m finally feeling ready to lose this weight especially my FUPA. And two - in gong to conquer that machine. Period. Between that machine and Queen Warrior workouts I am going to achieve my goals.

I can’t believe I’m sharing these pics - I see how far I really let myself go but I am doing this for accountability. I don’t ever want to look like this again.

Stats: 154lbs goal weight 130-135lbs height 5’3”

My workout for the day is done! It was deceptively difficult but I pushed through. I started with a 30 minute session on the elliptical and then I did this workout with Coach Sammi, I plan to do the full 4 weeks!

Now it’s time to break my fast and have a healthy breakfast. What did yall eat today?
