My mother's day treats!

So tomorrow is Mother's Day and I am a food lover. I found some really good looking treats that are not accompanied by guilt. Here are a couple of things I will be having tomorrow.

And oh my goodness look at this treat! Healthy Carrot Cake...I am so excited.

 

Carrot Cake Base:
4 large carrots (2-3 cups shredded carrots - either in food processor or the pulp from juicing carrots)
1 cup dates (pitted)
1 cup dried pineapple 
1/2 cup dried coconut
1/4 tsp. cinnamon powder
1/4 tsp. ginger (freshly pressed in garlic press, or shredded, or powder form)

Combine the cake base in food processor until mixture reaches cake-like consistency. Put this mixture into cupcake liners and put in the refrigerator to set. 

Vanilla "Cream Cheese" Frosting:
1 cup soaked cashews (or if you are allergic to nuts like I am, you may use 1 cup coconut meat. If you decide to use coconut meat, put in a little bit of flax or chia seeds when blending to make it coagulate a little)
1/2 cup pitted dates
1/2 tsp vanilla bean (use fresh, or in powder form - or use liquid non-alcoholized form)
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Blend this in the vitamix (see link above to purchase - the vitamix will make your frosting creamy and smooth, opposed to other blenders which are not as powerful.  If you purchase a vitamix through Live Love Fruit, you will get FREE shipping and handling! Click this link to purchase: http://livelovefruit.com/store/products/vitamix/). This takes a bit of perfecting to you, you may add more or less soaked cashews, or more or less dates. Whatever pleases you best. 

Spread this frosting on the cupcakes that have been sitting in the fridge, and enjoy for any kind of special celebration you might have planned! This is NOT an every day food, and would be something I create for a birthday once a year. Enjoy!

One on One On On Leg!

So I am bad. I have had a bonus workout from my P90X2 (which I have had over a year now - I have just finished a second round of X2) I am now just trying out Tony Horton's One-on-One, On One Leg For Legs workout. I have to give props to X2. This one-on-one workout requires core strength and stability and leg strength and stability to do it well without struggling and stumbling and X2 did that for me. I still got a great workout and worked up a sweat with this one-on-one workout and my legs were shaking during the moves...

You can check out the One on One's. Click here!

Mom, Student, Coach-- Should I add 5Ker?

Okay, So I am a wife and mom first and foremost. And I always will be. Anything I do that isn't related to the first two gets shifted down in priority. But I've become a student again in the past couple of months. (Not that I haven't been a life student and constantly looking for the best way to raise my child over the past four years. Sometimes I think I look up stuff on my child just to make sure I'm not screwing things up too bad. lol)

So I am studying to become a medical transcriptionist. That is the student part. And I'm thankful for my editing and writing background. I know I picked the right medical-related thing to go into. Medical coding and billing is big, but I think I will enjoy this much more as it uses skills that I already know and enjoy.

I am a Beachbody coach and I love helping people work toward their fitness and health goals. (So message me if I can help you :) )

So as I've noted in previous blogs I have done P90X and Brazil Butt Lift and am in the middle of P90X2 right now. So I am looking at adding some jogging/running to my routines and thinking that I might want to try a 5K this year sometime, most likely in the summer or fall. Guess I better see what event I want to do and start looking for some training schedules for a 5K. I really think I want to do this. So many help charities, and I have a couple close to my heart. Better start looking :)

An Amazing Year

Today I celebrate my 43rd birthday. It would be just another birthday except that today I can honestly say that I am in the best shape of my life. I truly never expected to be in the shape I am in today.

The last time I was nearly this healthy or looked like this, I was 15. And honestly I wasn't that healthy. I was a teenager, and my main drink of choice was Mountain Dew! But when you are 15, and your metabolism is high, you are running track everyday and riding your bike 8 miles a day so you don't have to ride the bus to school, you don't notice those MDs and Snickers Bars...

Eleven months ago my weight had been inching up and up and up, mostly from lack of exercise and not really paying attention to what I was eating. I had finally broke down and bought a couple of pairs of jeans in a larger size. Once again an infomercial came on for P90X and my husband commented that he heard it worked, as long as you followed the nutrition plan. So I decided to give it a try.

I saw results within the first 3 weeks. I was quite amazed. I had never had any fitness program--home workout, gym workout, class workout-- do what this had done before. I could see my abs. I always just assumed I was one of the person who couldn't do that.This is my Day 1on the left and Day 90 (really Day 100) pictures with P90X. I've been continuing to workout and eat healthy. And have managed to keep my weight off.

Today I have completed two rounds of P90X. I decided to try Brazil Butt Lift workout for a month. What fun, what a core workout and what a workout.  Don't let the name fool you. If you try it you will get a workout and you will get results.

Now I am doing P90X2. It's been a change up from P90X. Here's a my starting pic for P90X2. (I really don't like taking this pictures in case you can't tell from my expression.)

 I've just started P90X2's Phase 2. Looking forward to the variety the workout brings.

I am now a Beachbody Coach. If I can help you get to your fitness goals, message me. I have a 90-day fit challenge (and it doesn't have to be with P90X) starting in March. The challenge gives you support, accountability and if you get the March group - we'll be ready for swimsuit season!

Fat versus Muscle

I posted this picture on my facebook page and it got a lot of response. I guess being able to visualize muscle versus fat really helps a lot of people see. Your scale might not move but your clothes will fit differently as you lose the fat. I personally don't have scales. I would weigh myself everyday if I did and I know that is self-defeating.

An update on my P90X2 workouts. So far I am liking P90X2 workouts better than X1. Of course the beginning is focusing on core stability so we'll see in about 3 more weeks what some of the other workouts are like.

The new plyometics (Plyocide is the name of the workout) is actually fun, at least for me. I like it much better than the X1 plyo. It's has some new ways of doing stretches too. I think I might actually increase my flexibility with X2.

I'm in an accountability group to workout everyday and it's help me make sure I find time to exercise, even if I don't get up early in the a.m. to exercise. I've had a few bad nights of sleep so I've been choosing the two hours of sleep over exercising in the morning. I then have been making sure I exercise sometime during the day. This has helped. Plus I always get a better workout in the afternoon, it's just easier to get them out of the way when no one else is awake early in the morning. 

Have a great week.

7 Superfoods you should be eating...

Found this article and wanted to share. I don't have all of these in my diet, but I have more than half :) Love some of this stuff, some I still have to try, like kale.

2012 here we come

Well Here we are it's January 1st. I have to admit I didn't workout today, but I will start on Monday January 2. I have 4 days left of my Brazil Butt Lift work out. Then it's off for a couple of days while I take my fitness test for P90X2 and get ready to start what looks to be an incredible workout for 90 days.

Since I have my workout goals inline for the next 3 months, I also have to work on my nutrition. Last year I actually followed thru on my goal of eating healthier and cleaner. Now in 2012 we are really going to be cleaning it up even more. I did manage to get rid of most processed foods, with the occasional bag of chips for the 'natural' section of the store, but this year I mean to be even better and work to make it more fresh foods, nuts and berries. We pretty much only eat poultry as our meat source here, so replacing some of that with non-beef, non-pork and non-soy protein is the goal. Though we do have red meat, pork and fish from time to time, with a husband trying to follow the gout prevention diet, we are limited in that ways anyways.

I look forward to eating even better this year! Of course I'll continue drinking Shakeology every day.  I feel as though I have so much more energy and just all over healthier because of it.

Happy New Year! Let's all work toward our goals in 2012.

Curbing Cravings?

Here's an interesting post from Real Age. I've never thought of trying something like this but it would definitely be worth a try.

http://www.realage.com/health-tips/curb-food-cravings-with-imagination?cbr=therm_pr&eid=1010656165&memberid=6829591

Always worth a try, especially with all the leftovers that will be around in next week ;)

Welcome

Hi and thanks for visiting my blog YourFitnessPath - CoachTisen.
I've started this blog to share my journey to keep healthy and active. I also plan to share information I find on health, fitness, eating well, recipes, and more. 
I am also here to help you reach your fitness and health goals with free coaching. 

I am a P90X grad, current Brazil Butt Lift user and soon to be using P90X2 after the new year.
I got into the best shape of my life using P90X. I've tried many home fitness videos, jogging, inline skating. I've had gym memberships, attended classes and more. I have never gotten into better shape than I am now after completing P90X and finally fixing my nutrition. Here's a picture of me on the day I decided I needed to do something and me 6 months later, in the same clothes.

After completing a second round of P90X I decided to shake it up a bit and am currently doing Brazil Butt Lift. It's fun and really works your core in every workout. After the new year I will finish up BBL and start P90X2!

Come along and see how I do and if you find you want to start doing something to I can help you with that too.

Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
