4 Week Fitness: Week 2

Shop this look at non-brandstore.com

I am so happy that we made it to week 2! This is where we really start to test our commitment to ourselves! Can we stick through week 2 and finish the program? OF COURSE WE CAN! Week 1 was so much fun for me, and I am beyond ready for week 2. Are you?

Adding the Fitness Marshall back into my regular routine has done wonders for my mood. I could not love him anymore if I tried, and I hope you guys love him too! What I know we loved was the meditation days! I am SO glad you all vibed with that! Here is my favorite youtube meditation channel that I scroll through when I have something specific I want to be guided through. I also enjoy just putting on some relaxing nature sounds or Tibetan bowls and just vibe out. It took me a lot of time starting with guided meditations to get there though. You can read about my journey through meditation here.

Last week in my DMs, (which is a legit series I want to start because my DMs are WILD) I got a couple messages about soreness and some questions about the Meal Plan I provided with this program. Muscle soreness is a part of working out, but we can do things to help lessen the discomfort. Make sure you are stretching before and after your workouts. If you still feel stiff after the stretch, find another stretch video or keep gently stretching the part that is bothering you. Be careful to be gentle with yourself, and don't overstretch! Some ice on the sore area helps and a nice cold shower! Back when I was working out every day in the Navy, different pre and post-workout supplements would help with soreness and recovery time. What's crazy is NONE of the ones I used to use are available now. I am not currently using any pre or post-workout supplements since I am still breastfeeding so I don't have any tried and true recommendations. I am SO pleased to hear that the meal plan I put together was easy to follow! We still have 3 weeks together, but getting your meal routine down early will make it worlds easier. Feel free to try out different snacks throughout the week so you don't get bored repeating the same routine. Please hop in our Facebook group the Social Club, send me a DM or email if you need further guidance, tips, or just someone to talk to about how your husband is eating cookies right in front of you (so rude!).

Plan on coming and celebrating your successful completion of this program? Book your stay with us right now! Make sure you send me an email so I can make sure you're on any guest list or table reservations we have for the weekend. Planning for your reward puts your whole vibe in the alignment of already having earned it and propels you to finish the task at hand to get there. I'm recommending planning to come Thursday the 27th through Sunday the 1st, or the next weekend Thursday the 5th of March through Sunday the 8th. My chosen hotel for the moment is the Aria. This is a full Luxury resort so all your needs will be met on the property, it's gorgeous and right in the middle of everything.

See you for week 3!

Throw Back: That one time I competed in a pageant

Once upon a time, what seems like a long time ago I decided I wanted to be a beauty queen. It was definitely an experience I will never forget and I finally have the chance to tell you all about it! I've always known that I wanted to help people in some way, and one day it dawned on me if I had a crown that would definitely give me a much louder voice to speak on issues I thought were important. So, I went searching for what I thought was the best pageant for me and I landed on Miss Nevada USA 2016. The only thing I knew about pageants at this point was from the Miss Congeniality movie and what I heard about from my cousin's social media pages. So from that, I thought it was going to be a breeze...PSYCH! It was probably the most grueling process of self-discovery I've ever put myself through. My first step was figuring out how much all of this was going to cost. For me, it was a ridiculous amount that I just wasn't going to be able to make at my day job in...

MTV Movie Awards 2019: Vegas Faves and Looks I Love

Any MTV Awards show has such a huge place in my heart! I just remember being young and thinking how exciting it was to watch all my favorite celebrities getting trophies. All the performances and then getting to talk to my friends about it at school the next day! Well, now we have Twitter to instantly connect to everyone, see behind the scenes, all the processes and relive every moment we loved whenever we want! It's a whole new world now, and I'm carving out my little slice with my first live event coverage blog! I loved the low key theme of this year's show was to love yourself, dream big and be kind to people! Jada MOVED me so much when she spoke about those internal trails, and The Rock is always such a beautiful source of inspiration. While all of that was amazing and beautiful, what I'm here to talk about today is Red Carpet Love! Here's a quick list of the looks I loved, and who we love to see here in Vegas. Jada took this year's trail blazer with t...

Kid Friendly Vegas: Kangamoo

I have a one-year-old! Life is BANANAS! To celebrate my young King's first birthday, we took him to Kangamoo indoor playground. Here's how it went. This place is HUGE. I was shook once I walked in and tried to find the bathroom through what felt like miles of padded kid-wonderland. I didn't do too much exploring of the big kid area, and I made it a point not to go when they were having a special event but according to their facebook page, this place is lit! Every Thursday 4:30-5:30 they have a character come by and play around with the kids (perfect photo op), Wednesday is arts and crafts day 10AM-12, Balloon Animals and face paint every Friday 2-4, and Musical Story Time on Tuesday 10AM-12. All other times Mon - Fri 9am-7pm and Sat-Sun 9AM-5PM is open play time. Now, back to my nugget. I think he had a BLAST! This was his first time playing outside of our home and having so many options for new things to touch. It was ADORABLE. His attention span is one thing ...

Disney+ Watchlist: Throw It Back to Gummi Bears!

I just hit my own personal Disney+ nostalgic gold mine with our current binge favorite, Gummi Bears! I don't have any idea how old I was when I watched this, and I didn't remember a single thing from the episodes we watched before...but I was SURE singing the theme song at the top of my lungs the second it started! Disney has given me such a beautiful moment to share my childhood with my son! Our usual TV time consists of me putting on something child-friendly, pulling out my laptop and getting back to work while shouting out whatever prompt the characters are looking for. But right now, with Gummi Bears, I have been so wonderfully present in the moment with him that it's beautiful. Not only that, but now that I'm doing a whole little Disney series on the Blog it's given us the opportunity to do some crafts together, learn more about colors and coloring and find out what colors are our favorites! Right now, my young King is favoring Red. We'll se...

This list does not include everything that is happening here regularly like the Cirque du solei shows, the daily free shows, sights and things like that.
