This little lovely.....exercise program

I've been looking for something lately for toning. I'm one of those people that really needs a plan. I'm a list maker and a person who loves to check something off. As I was googling exercise plans, I ran across two blogs ("honey we're healthy" and "alesha haley") that really inspired me. Both women have completed Jamie Eason's live fit 12-week trainer. The results are amazing. So, I'm printing out exercise logs and making a grocery list. My start date will be September 1, 2014. My plan is to post week to week updates and pictures. I think that you should join me. Download the info and let's get started. Who's in?

This little lovely......twogrand

Twogrand.....that's an awesome title.....but no, I'm not giving money away. Twogrand is a really cool app that I've been using to log my foods. I used to use myfitness pal but I got really sick of counting calories. I've counted points or calories pretty much since I've had kids. I was convinced that there had to be a way to lose/maintain my weight without being consumed with how many calories every food has in it. Enter Twogrand. Twogrand allows me to snap a picture of each of my meals and log it. I don't know how many calories I'm eating in each meal. What I do know, is that with Twogrand I can see an overview of what I've eaten that day. I can look back and see that I've maybe eaten too much fat in a day or maybe I've eaten a little too much sugar. The focus really is on healthy eating. The community is great. Everyone is so encouraging and you really connect with people. And here's the kicker......it works. When I'm consistently logging, I lose weight.
