2018 Health & Fitness Series - March Check-In with The Gym Participants - Morgan & Jamie

Jamie & Morgan – work wives, gym-mates and The Gym LLC’s cheer squad:
Morgan’s 2018 goals:
Weight goals: Nothing specific but wants to be able to feel comfortable in a pair of shorts this summer
Nutrition goals: Eat better food in smaller portions
Other goals: get muscle mass up and more muscle definition

March Check-In:
1) Stats: How many days did you track your food/nutrition 100%?
So about the tracking... it went okay... definitely not as good as I wanted it to... I struggled to start... did fairly well in the middle and fell off the wagon the last week... BUT I'm back on track.. (no pun intended) lol!!!

2) Did you meet your March goals?:
Weight loss: To obviously lose weight and see it in more ways than on the scale! I don't have a particular number in mind.
Yes, I feel like I have lost some weight.

Work out: To be able to do a 5 min plank variation
Yes! I can do a 5 min plank variation!

Nutrition: To log my food into the my fitness pal app
Yes and no (see 1 above)

3. What are your April goals?
Weight: I want it to go down.. since I haven't been weighing myself.. I can't give an exact number...

Exercise: build up my jogging endurance. I would like to jog a 5k by the end of May, and I'm not a jogger... so this will be interesting! hahahahaha!!!

Nutrition: to continue to log my food every...single...day... and to not only meal prep for myself but also for my family. With baseball season getting into full swing this will be very helpful! It will keep us out of the drive-thru's!!!

4. Who is your favorite trainer and why? There are so so so many amazing things about Andrea... but I would have to say that one of the most awesome things is that she is a real person. She's a no b.s, don't make excuses, and do what needs to done kinda gal!
