Accountability check in: Day 30 of 30 days of movement #NEW!!!

We are definitely out for the count. The boys and I slept for most of the day today. We got up and tried to eat but just stuck with bone broth, honey water and raw garlic. NiƱito nursed basically all day. Not the way I wanted to close out the day but Iā€™m not going to push it. I should of chilled out the previous few days but I was so excited to hit that goal. I attempted stretching with Raven but my body just couldnā€™t get warm even after putting on layers and two socks.

I really hope you guys are able to avoid this flu. Nothing good about it.

Wendy, letā€™s collaborate on a goal for February!!

Donā€™t worry, Iā€™ll be back to clog the feed soon!! šŸ¤“

Today is day 30!!!! Iā€™ve made it! I couldnā€™t wait until this evening to post so Iā€™ll post my workout with the accountability check in later this evening. I havenā€™t taken my measurements but at the beginning of this 30 days of movement I weighed 222 lbs and I am now 199!!! I wish I would have taken pictures of the scale but I honestly doubted myself. I did not think I would 1.) Make it to a full 30 days and 2.) I didnā€™t think I would be able to drop any weight at all. I proved myself wrong!!! I am going to take whatā€™s left of January to set my February goal!

In the picture you canā€™t really see a significant weight loss difference? But I have my body composition appointment on Friday and I will take measurements with them to make sure they are accurate.

I am out of my pregnancy pants/chonies and Iā€™ve noticed a difference in weird places like my upper arms in my armpits, like I have an armpit again and my wrists and neck. My butt doesnā€™t look or feel so flabby or like wide (?) anymore and my core feels increasingly stronger. I donā€™t have such bad hip and lower back pain as well.

I cannot imagine what 6 months looks like with QW!! I am so excited to continue my journey!!!
Thank you Fabiana

*Im going to try and wear the same clothes in each monthly update photo so I can see how they feel/fit different

Accountability check in: Day 29 of 30 days of movement #NEW

I only realized after I did this that maybe QW wouldnā€™t be too pumped butā€¦

I invited one of my new neighbor friends over to the house to try a workout. I have been feeling so good and she has been expressing how depressed she is after her divorce and feeling like her health has gone down the drain in the last two yearsā€¦ we did a beginning workout with Coach Jamila and I showed her Day One of booty blaster with Fabiana and LOVED IT! She said she didnā€™t feel intimidated at all. I told her what drew me is that Fabi is Afro Latinxā€¦ we Morenas are few and far between out here. Simply put, Fabi is relatable on so many levels and you can see she cares for each of the Queens that join her community. Sidenote Fabiana donā€™t come after me if youā€™re offended and Iā€™m wrong. My apologies if so
Anyway, Iā€™m going to keep on her about signing up. I told her, ā€œThis isnā€™t a free workout zone and my door is for sure not always open so get it together on your end and join! Zero reasons to not do itā€

It was a great day and I cannot fucking wait to get on the scale and take my measurements tomorrow!!!! ONE MORE DAY and Iā€™ve reached my first self love goal/milestone!! Letā€™s goo queens!

Wendy!! How are you and your baby boy! We thinking of you girl!!

Accountability check in: Day 28 of 30 days of movement #NEW

In like right at the finish line and the boys and I are sick. Hit us like a brick. They are sleeping a lot which is good. Iā€™m thankful today is a rest day. Iā€™m taking advantage and resting right alongside them. I am thankful that I have the ability to let the boys nap on a cot in the office at work and I can still work as well tomorrow. Masked up and glovesā€¦ no fever for any of us so if we do end up with one we will stay home.

I was reading online that your skin starts to look saggy when you start shedding fat? Any truth to that? Iā€™m feeling like my mommy poochi is like way saggy but I should be happy about that? I cannot wait to take measurements and weigh myself in a couple days!

Wendy!! Hope you made time for us Queens today!

Accountability check in: Day 27 of 30 days of movement #NEW

Today was my first day of work!! Was able to bring the boys with me and they had a blast. A bit of a rough transition for the first hour but by the end of the shift niƱito was crawling around and playing with toys and Sonny was playing ball with another child there.

Fabiana I found out I can do the body scan at work! Iā€™m scheduled to do so on Friday. This way I can really track results.

I did my QW workout a little later than I wanted but as we get into a routine coming home from work everything will run a little more smoothly. Iā€™m going to finish the Booty Blaster course on day 30! So excited! Iā€™m like right at the finish line BUT this is just the beginning! Many more goals to be set along the way.

Wendy! Hope you made time for QW today!! Besos Queen!

Accountability check in: Day 26 of 30 days of movement #NEW

Iā€™m still here but Iā€™m 4 days away!!! I havenā€™t stepped on a scale or measured my body again and Iā€™ve been avoiding looking in the mirror because I know if I donā€™t see some sort of progress I will get discouraged. I DO feel better though. Overall, Iā€™m getting through the movements of each workout better and even though my stomach is still super flabby and not where I want I can feel things changes and strengthening.

Got through the work out with Fabiana today - Abs and Booty course and HIIT with Raven Cruz 30 days is almost here and itā€™s only going to get better! I got this!

Accountability check in: Day 25 of 30 days of movement #NEW

I meal prepped for the boys and I today to get us ready for school and my first week of work! Yoooooo! Iā€™m so ready!! I tell you one thing I wasnā€™t ready for today though, working out. I was thrashed by the end of the day. I sat on the couch and was thinking Iā€™ll just watch me a little show and then I will workout but I heard Fabiana saying, ā€œThis is the year of no excuses! This is the year we show up for ourselves, sis!ā€ And I was like yup okay letā€™s go.

I was tired as hell but I did it and I feel better and happy that I didnā€™t disappoint myself! I felt kind of doofy though because Iā€™ve done week three day 4 of the glute course like three times
because the little check marks havenā€™t been ticked at the top. I got half way through before I realized it, haha. Hopefully that doesnā€™t mess anything up progress wise šŸ˜…


Wendy! Hey girl! Thinking of you.

Accountability check in: DAY 24 of 30 days of movement #NEW *Late post*

This is a late post - my youngest is teething so it was a rough night. Up every 15 minutes to an hour.

We had a rest day today. We went to the park and played in the morning and later in afternoon went for a very light hike at a nature preserve near by. We had fun looking for animals and collecting flowers and searching out bugs.

Back to the QW workouts/gym today. Iā€™m hoping niƱito can sleep through the night.

Some how I was able to get my QW workout in before midnight! Thankful for that. Iā€™m on week 3 day 3 of Booty Blaster and same for the Abs course with Fabiana . Those swimmers got me. I closed my workout with a beginner HIIT class with Coach Jamila felt goooood!

Iā€™m one week away from achieving a full thirty days of working out!!!! Unbelievable!

Wendy, still here for you girl and I hope you made some time for QW today!

I signed the offer letter for my new position today! Itā€™s funny how everything is just lining up for meā€¦ Iā€™m so thankful and happy and appreciative. I never thought Iā€™d be here and Iā€™m literally just getting started.
