Body Beast Update

I realize I haven't posted an update in a while on my progress!  Well I'm in week 2 of the Bulk Phase.  Loving the Bulk workouts as they are a little bit shorter.  I have also stopped doing as many Turbo Fire workouts since I got sick.  So I'm only doing 2 each week, maybe 3 if I'm feeling good. 

Everything is starting to look tighter and more toned.  Last Friday was my one month mark.  So incredibly happy with the results.  The pictures are amazing!  The scale really hasn't moved that much.  I started out around 151 and now I'm around 147 depending on the day and water weight.  However, it's the visual differences that are the best.  Everything is tighter!  Stopping all the extra cardio has really helped to.  I've noticed much more of a difference in these past two weeks when I dropped from 5 days of cardio to 2.  My body is able to build and recover my muscles. 

I've also started drinking a post workout protein shake.  I think that has helped too.  This combo is my favorite.  Precision brand Whey Protein Isolate 1 scoop, with 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, and 1 tbsp natural peanut butter.  Tastes like dessert in a glass!

One of my biggest struggles lately have been the negative people in my life.  I guess haters are always going to hate but it doesn't make it any easier to deal with.  They say you need to cut ties with the negative people in your life... but that's hard to do when they are your coworkers! So this is my new motto.  Done letting other people influence how I feel.  I'm going to be proud!
