Cardio

Last week was an amazing yet busy week. The conference I was at constantly had wine and goodies that were way too hard to pass up. After indulging in some amazing meals and wine, my mom turned to me and pointed out how proud she is of me that I now have more flexibility with my diet than I ever have. She caught me so off guard with this comment, but it couldn't mean more to me to hear her say that. As she is the first person to be honest with me, I realized that moderation is definitely a great thing. I no longer deprive myself of anything. I follow the 80/20 rule, eating clean about 80% of the time and indulging 20% of the time. This being said, I had a fabulous week meeting lots of new amazing people, spending quality time with my new fab'rik team and enjoying some fabulous meals.

My first workout back home was tough. It was intended to get me back on track by sweating all the toxins out of my body. In this workout I was able to burn over 600 calories by only doing 50 minutes of work.
