Smells Like Fit

Smells Like Fit Sleep. Eat. Sweat. Repeat. I am a full time working mother of a 9 year old boy named Ashley. We are an active family that loves watching and playing sports.

Most weekends (and weeknights for that matter), you can find us at a hockey rink in Winnipeg Manitoba, where we live. We love our busy life that takes us for A to B to C to D, but it has always been our crutch and major excuse for not getting into shape. Not anymore...

We have now found Beachbody and all of our excuses have gone out the window. Who doesn't have half and hour a day, 5 or 6 days a

week? I've struggled with my weight my whole life. I've been to weight watchers, bootcamp, kickboxing clubs, many different gyms, therapists, and the list goes on. Nothing has ever worked for me. I have always found reasons to give up and excuses as to why these programs didn't work. And I'll be honest, they really just didn't work for me, at all! As I said before, we are very busy. I honestly don't have time to drive to the gym/bootcamp/class, work out for an hour, then drive home and carry on with my life. Keeping to others schedules was so constricting and I never managed to fit them into my routine. Now, I workout when I can. Sometimes, if I have a busy evening planned, I work out in the morning. Sometimes it's at 10 o'clock at night. Sometimes it's right after work. It's whatever works for me in the moment and it's only half an hour. Half an hour a day, which works out to just over two percent of your entire day, is very manageable. I also have developed a huge social network group of people that I "work out with" on a daily basis, even though I've never actually physically worked out with them ever. They give me the drive and determination to keep going and my journey would not be happening without them. That's why I'm writing this. I want YOU to join me. I want to inspire you the way that everyone else has inspired me. I want you to want to smell like fit! That might mean filling your home with the amazing aromas of all of the clean food you will be cooking for your family. It could also mean stocking up on disinfectant wipes to clean your workout mat daily because of all the sweat that you left on it from killing the sit up series, or nailing the plank for even longer then the last time you tried. Whatever it means to you, I want to be there with you for your journey! Thanks for reading! Jackie Bend

Uncategorized The Brutally Honest 6 Reasons You Are Still Overfat January 26, 2015 Taylor 24 Comments I haven’t written a new blog in quite some time. Why? Because every time I go to write a new blog I realize that I have already written on the topic, most often many years ago. So I just repost that…

I am going to do this before I leave on my trip!! I think it'll be the push that I need right now as I (ok I'll admit it) haven't been eating super awesome these past few weeks! I even had some candy this weekend while watching the horses this past weekend. I think this will be the kick I need to get over this plateau I've been experiencing and to get going in the right direction again!

No starving yourself or carb crashing, feed your body essential nutrients while keeping your body nourished and hydrated with delicious meal options and amazing tasting shakes!

Im starting a 3 day Challenge. You can commit to 3 days right? If you are interested, comment below or inbox me!

HONEY MUSTARD CHICKEN
-Spray the pan with non-stick cooking spray or a little bit of olive oil.
-Heat pan to medium/high temperature.
-Place chicken breast in the pan with lemon juice
-While the chicken is cooking, combine mustard and honey. Once chicken is almost cooked through, drizzle mustard on the chicken, then turn chicken and drizzle on other side.
-Grind pepper on chicken and continue cooking until chicken is cooked through.
-If more cooking is required but the liquid evaporates, add water.
-I always like to add water and cover the chicken after I lose most of the moisture from the lemons juice and honey mustard. This keeps the chicken nice and tender and my son LOVES how easy it is to eat (meat is not his strong point, but he ALWAYS has seconds of this!!).

Yes, I can have that burger, actually, I CAN eat whatever I want, BUT why would I want to eat something that is going to make me feel awful?

A lot of people find it hard to believe that I workout everyday. They ask me where I find the motivation. For me, I find it so easy to make the decision to workout because of how much the change in lifestyle has just changed my WHOLE LIFE!!

Last night my family and I were able to just pick up, hop on our bikes and head to a BEAUTIFUL local park to ride bikes and play volleyball. It was SUCH a great evening that NEVER used to happen. We talked, laughed, got some exercise and fresh air and just had a GREAT TIME TOGETHER. THAT is my WHY!

Sure, I have short term "why's" like trying to fit into a dress and doing the Grouse Grind, but my BIG WHY is the ability to do what I want, when I want, with the people I love!!

What is your why? Please share as I love hearing about what motivates others! :)

If you haven't started your journey yet, answer this: "What would motivate you? What could be your "why"?"
