Headed to the DR to Party like a Rock Star... Kind of...

Thanks to some close friends we met in Mexico (Hey, Annette and Vince!), we will be staying at the Hard Rock Punta Cana for the next week. We got a great deal with lots of credits to use at the resort, which we plan to use on the spa, so relaxing is the only thing on the agenda. We are looking at this as a wellness vacay. You know, eat well, gym, pool, and spa... Yeah, there will be drinks but we are hoping to focus on wellness and not overdo it on this trip. We have to get back on our weight-loss journey and this feels like a great place to start!



This will be our first trip to the DR and I was a bit surprised when Keith said he had no interest in leaving the resort. He is all about just relaxing. Fine by me!

I'll be posting pictures on our Instagram account, so make sure to check them out! See you in a week!

Sweet Sweat Waist Trimmer - Yay or Nay?

I follow a lot of women on Instagram that are major influences in the workout world. I recently noticed many of them use waist trainers to help with their tummies. I did a bit of research and found one I wanted to give a try. You basically just wrap it around you when you workout and it makes your mid section sweat way more than the rest of you. The theory is it helps you lose inches... So, I wanted to try it for myself.

It a bit hard for me to give an exact update on progress as I am eating a Keto diet, drinking Pruvit AND working out. So many factors could be associated with my inches lost around my mid section.

I bought the Sweet Sweat trimmer on October 16th and my mother brought it to Mexico for me on the 19th. I started wearing it on the 20th. It's been almost a week and I have lost 2" on my waist - which is awesome!! I have one more week for this test to see what happens. 

My stomach has been my trouble area for years now. I even tried Coolsculpting a few years back and I think it actually screwed up how my fat stores in my mid section. They didn't believe me when I told them this and of course there are no refunds so I always tell people to steer clear as I personally don't feel it's something that works, at least it didn't in my case.

Check back in a week and I'll update you on my results.

Working Out is Not Glamorous - We SWEAT!


Working Out Is Now a Daily Routine

When we started our Keto Journey on May 31, 2017, we were just eating Keto and drinking Pruvit. No gym. 

The other day Keith asked me give him 2 full weeks to get our bodies heading in the right direction with a gym routine. So, we have been doing just that. I decided to snap some before and better photos. We have only been doing Keto/Pruvit for 4.5 months but I wanted to show some of our most recent results. What do you think?
