Why is toning/firming so hard for me?
My 2nd 90 Day Challenge is for continued toning and firming after the 1st challenge. After losing more than 40 lbs deeper firming is necessary. My problem is I am an "activity" girl. I love to stay moving thus cardio/aerobics are my thing. The repetition of toning/firming exercises do not stimulate my ADD *yes I have it*!!
I've been attempting since April, at the completion of my 1st 90 Day Challenge, to get this toning/firming together but it's just not working. I am still losing inches, weight is fluctuating between 168 - 170, my newest apparel is getting too big, etc etc. Am I complaining? HECK NO but I am frustrated!
There is some difference there, I can see a decrease but it doesn't seem to be moving fast enough and I know why ... I AM NOT MOTIVATED TO TONE/FIRM! *sigh* What can I do to make this fun? To make it so it's something I always want to do EVERY chance I get?

Affordable Shopping in the Vi Life Part I
I have to admit, the thought of having to buy an entire wardrobe DID have me feeling some kind of way when I started losing weight. I wasn't sure how I was going to fund a new wardrobe without picking up a "sponsor". *chuckles*
As I began my "new look" shopping I realized that the smaller the clothing the less it costs (dependent on where you shop). I am a HUGE fan of Body Central/Shop, Wet Seal, Rue 21 and Forever 21 which I have found to be QUITE affordable. It wasn't until I visited home for vacation (June 15-24) that I discovered a NEW clothing store called Papaya. THIS has become my new favorite place! It had boutique looking clothing at Rainbow prices! IMAGINE THAT!!!
I will be sharing an outfit per blog entry to show how fashionable you can be at a fraction of the cost! This outfit is a mixture of Wet Seal and Dots:
Light wash denim: $10 from Wet Seal (yes these are a pair of my FAVS)
Brown Cami: $7.99 from Wet Seal
Shoes: $16 from DOTS
Coral Jacket: $20 from DOTS
Accessories: ASHLEY STEWART
Necklace/earring set = $14.50
Bracelet = $12.5
Losing +40lbs since January has been a MAJOR step in my life, towards better health and wellness as well as adding longevity to my life and if this is something that interest you visit HEALTHYTROUBLE.BODYBYVI.COM then contact me for more details. Join me in the VI LIFE!

Work out regimen
When I decided to take the ViSalus 90 Day Challenge I came on board with a mission in mind. I knew getting healthy was the ultimate goal as well as being able to actively play with my grandchildren without getting winded and not wanting to see my cardiologist anymore (who was really nice, I just wanted to live without her) but what my mind was really set on was getting into my FIRST EVER 2 piece bikini for my 42nd birthday in June. I started January 12th on my first challenge and right out the gate began exercising so that I could see results quicker.
Since I've never really been athletic or physically fit in any way I had to start with something I knew would be relatively easy for me to keep up with, maintain and most importantly for me FUN! Anything fun I'll be sure to keep it up. This is when I visited Wal-Mart's exercise section and MAN were there a LOT of exercise DVD's to choose from. There was YOGA, PILATES and KICKBOXING just to name a few. I was unsure of what to choose until I saw
Leslie Sansone's "WALK AT HOME" collection, FAST & FIRM, the simple way to lose weight. Hmmmm...sounds good enough to me! Walking at home, how hard is that? I'd already started walking the Main St and Acosta bridges so I was very in tune with the walking for exercise process. Man oh man how wrong I was about her work outs! They were not intense or very heavy BUT they were (and still are) excellent work outs, especially if you are just beginning your journey to better health and wellness. For the first 30-45 days Leslie and walking became my best friends!! Here is the end result of my first 30-45 days:
Notice how the mid section is slowly but surely decreasing? That is ONE of the many things I love about Body By Vi, it goes directly to those really fatty areas and does it's magic! I don't recall ever not having an "18 wheeler tire" of some sort around my mid section but I can honestly say I don't have one now.

Life after the 1st challenge
After looking at my new body, thinking about how much it took to get here and what I know have to go through to maintain I decided to create a VI DIVA BLOG. It will chronicle my new VI life after my 1st 90 Day Challenge that began January 12th. I will discuss my trials, tribulations and showcase my new lifestyle since starting my transformation to include my newest fashions that will all be cute and very affordable as well as discuss how I now have to live to maintain this VI body.
Since beginning the challenge in January I have lost over 30 lbs and more than 15 inches collectively between my chest, waist, hips and thighs. I've gone from a size 15/16 juniors to a very loose 11/12 and size 10 jean in Old Navy (next is EXPRESS).
This blog will detail what I do on a daily basis to maintain my healthy new lifestyle and the trying moments I have in my second 90 Day Challenge. I am sure you will ALL enjoy reading it as much as I will enjoy presenting it to you.
This outfit I am wearing (on the right) is an awesome blend of pieces from DOTS and ASHLEY STEWART:
Dress, cropped jacket, hat & shoes - DOTS
Maxi dress = $15
Jacket = $20
Shoes = $16
Hat = $12
Accessories: ASHLEY STEWART
Necklace/earring set = $14.50
Bracelet = $12.50
Nothing has felt as good to me in these past few weeks than being able to go into ANY store I want and shop ... all affordable thanks to ViSalus!! DOESN'T IT FEEL GOOD TO PAY LESS??
You'd best believe it does! Join me and find out how you too can get healthy and wealthy all at the same time! Are you ready to join the challenge?
