I hope everyone had a great holiday! I know I did. I started off my week with a beautiful bike ride with my hubby on the Northbank Path and midway stopped for some FroYo. We then hit the Southbank Path to head home making Monday nights ride 15 miles.

My mom and little brother brought over their bikes on the 4th and we all went for a ride to my other brother's house to enjoy some pool time. (After this ride we needed it) If you ever need an excuse to love Oregon, do this ride. We took the Northbank Path all the way to the Eastbank Path, and it was beautiful. I am not one to be on my phone while riding my bike, so I didn't take pictures but trust me... Well worth it! I only have one way on this map but it came out to about 20 miles.

Then on Saturday I did another ride to my brother's house with one of my best friends. I took her on the Northbank, then Eastbank, and Southbank Path making our ride just a half mile under 20. Such a beautiful week this week to ride.

I was thinking about how many calories I burn in a week. I know how many I burn daily, but I never looked at it in a big number before. After this week in just exercising that I have logged, I burned 6,744 calories Monday through Sunday! That is crazy! I love every minute of it too! No more lazy Ashley that is 100% true! In fact as of this month this girl has no more cable TV. (That's right I said it). I never have time to watch it anymore and Hulu takes care of my "must need to see TV". I am proud of myself! Getting up off the couch was the first step to a new me and look I am just 13 lbs away from a 50lbs lighter me! Hope you all have a fit and healthy week! Stay positive and work hard!

Fitness Friday- Squat Challenge Results

So some of you knew that I was doing a 30 day squat challenge... Well I finally completed the challenge and have my before and after. Still have a ways to go but holy cow there is a major difference. (Excuse my photography skills. My husband was sleeping and just decided to take them on my own.) I love SEEING my body transform! I really encourage people to take photos of them selves, although it may be gross or embarrassing at first, it is an amazing motivater and when you do start feeling discouraged you can take another photo to help you see that you really have transformed. Remember, the scale is only a small indicator of your success! How you feel, and how your clothes fit is the most important. Here is the challenge I did in case you want to do your own squat challenge! Enjoy! I know I did. I even may do it again! -Ash

Before & Afters... Amazeballs

So my weigh in this week is still the same at 172. I did lose 1/2 in in each leg, but that's about it this week. I would like to think that my muscle mass is what's taking over, but I really don't know. I feel thinner each week, and really that's all that matters! Not to mention I finally reached my size 10 jeans! Which brings me to this blog... I know once a month you get to see my body transform, but I wanted to see how different my body looked in some of my old clothes. OH EM GEE this was so much fun! December 2011: Dress size 14/16 You can't even tell in this after photo, but all that fabric in the stomach has about 2 inches from it to my belly. It also make me look like I have NO BOOBS at all! August 2012: Dress size 12 I look like a sausage stuffed in that dress! GAH! Look how much longer it is on me now. (Way more appropriate) I even have to take this in just a tad in the chest. I love this dress so much more now than looking back! Wedding Day 2012: Dress...
