Fit For Fall Calendar

(So I know that today is Monday not Wednesday but since Wednesday is the second of October and the workouts on this calender start on the first I wanted to post it early. So lets just pretend that today is Wednesday!)

Even though I ate pretty well and worked out on my September "vacation" in Oregon all of Grandma's goodies, dinner out with friends and beers on football Sunday caught up to me and I gained about 5 pounds. So to get back on track and feel my best in my favorite fall outfits I came up with my own little workout route for the month of October, I am calling it my Fit For Fall Calender. This is the routine I will do every day after my cardio workout. For this weeks Weight Loss Wednesday I am sharing my calender with you so if you would like you can follow it along with me!

Side Plank (Easy, Medium, Hard)
"Crunch"                                  Wall Sit
Push Up (Hard, Medium)
Walking Lunge


On top of my regular cardio workouts and my Fit For Fall October Calendar I will also get back on my regular diet and watch what I eat (of course.) Here are a few of my favorite websites where I get most of my healthy recipes from:
Skinnytaste
Health.com
Bodybuilding.com
and of course there is my healthy recipe posts which you can find here: MommyMiaa

Keep in mind that the key to losing weight and getting fit is....

September Favorites

September was a bitter sweet month. I pretty much got to spend all of September in Oregon with my family which was beyond fun and amazing but I was sad to leave! I am already missing my family so much! But I did discover a bunch of new things that I am loving, so here are a few of my favorites from September:

Random: I am having a lot of fun this year with my Fantasy Football League which started in September!

TV/Movie: My dad introduced me to The Bridge in September and now I am totally hooked!

Style: I have been obsessed with Leggings! They were a blessing on my long road trips and I wore them a lot while in Oregon, they are just so comfortable, so cute and so easy!

Food: While in Oregon my brother introduced me to cooking with Greek Yogurt and now I use it a lot in my recipes!

Music: I listened to Ginny Blackmore - Bones...
...and Anna Kendrick - Cups non stop all month!

My September Disappointment: Like I said I was sad to leave Oregon and I am sad that Colorado and Oregon are so far apart! I wish that they were closer so I could drive out to see my family whenever I felt like it!

Family First

If you follow my blog or just stop by from time to time you have probably noticed that I haven't posted anything in about a week. Like I said in my August Favorite's post my son and I took an impromptu road trip to Oregon to spend some time with my Grandpa who is battling liver cancer. Being with my family has been my number one priority lately so my blog has been put on the back burner for the time being.
 
 
 
But I promise as soon as I get settled back into my Colorado life, which will be at the beginning of October,  I will get back to blogging and posting every Saturday, Wednesday (Weight Loss Wednesday) and also every third Thursday of every month (Curious In Colorado). I have a lot of fun, fit and helpful blog posts coming up so stay tuned!

August Favorites

August is pretty much a blur...my son and I made an impromptu road trip to Oregon to be with my grandpa who has been battling liver cancer for over a year now. This is why my posts have been late going up, sorry! Besides the very LONG car ride August was great and filled with friends and family. Here are some of my favorite things from August:

 Random: I loved Working Out In The Park with my friend, the fresh air was amazing!

TV/Movie: I was, and still am, obsessed with the movie Hansel & Gretel!

Style: I have been wearing Marc Jacobs Daisy every day, it smells amazing!

Food: I am madly in love with Udi's! My friend took me their one day and now I cant get enough!

Music: I cant get enough of Brett Eldredge - Don't Ya...

 ...and Maroon 5 - Love Somebody!

My August Disappointment: I was sad that my husband couldn't make the trek to Oregon with our son and I!
