Off to a good start for my first week of completion and Sunday off to let my body rest. Yes, it's been a tough week filled with lots of soreness. While I did not manage to lose any weight this first week nor inches, I do feel stronger and seem to have a little more energy. So that counts for something right? Absolutely!

I started my week off using a great tool called My Fitness Pal. It's a Free online calorie counter. It has tons and tons of specific foods in  their food database actually over 1,135,000 items. It helps you keep track of the food you eat and the activities you do daily. I simply entered in my current weight and the weight I wanted to lose and how long I wanted to take to lose it. My Fitness Pal  did the math for me.Did I mention it was Free?? It helped me realize that I was not necessarily eating too much a day, I was just consuming way too much sugar daily. Now I am so much more aware of what I am putting in my body.

So with my current exercise program (Kettlebell Fitness Challenge) and My Fitness Pal - I should be on track to my goals weight and fitness level in just a matter of weeks. Stay tuned.....
