This year, I’ll be participating in Tone It Up’s 8-week Bikini Series! If you aren’t familiar with Tone It Up, they’re basically a health & fitness & lifestyle brand with tons of workouts, nutrition plans, and challenges to help you get in shape. I’m switching back to them after my stint with BBG, because TIU is soooo much more fun.

I’ll be sharing my progress on this blog, so I hope you follow along. If you’d like to join the challenge, you can start here!

Recipes I’m most excited to try (all images in this post courtesy Tone It Up):

Matcha Protein Bites, Blackberry Mint Mojitos, Strawberry Shortcake Muffins, Turmeric Cauliflower Rice Bowl, Avocado Smoothie, and the Citrus Beet Salad!

My starting measurements:

Neck: 14″

Thigh: 21″

Hips: 38 1/2″

Midsection: 38 1/2″

Waist: 29″

Arms: 11 1/4″

Neck: 12″

Weight: 130.8lbs.

I’m really freaked out that my measurements have gone UP during April, when I wasn’t being very healthy or working out consistently. I’m excited to see them go back down!

I can’t wait to get started meal prepping this weekend!
