Fit for Fatima

People ask me all the time "HOW ARE YOU ABLE TO DO THAT WITH LITTLE KIDS AT HOME?" I recently went from 20minute workouts to 1hr workouts and found it a little bit of a challenge keep my kiddos happy while I completed my workout...here is the collection of things i have compiled to keep them a little occupied while I do my home workout: 1. i bought them "kids weights"  https://amzn.to/2qgQonC  so they could "workout" with me! :) 2. i put up poster in the same room so i can ask them "where is the circle?", "where is the #5?" and other poster related questions to get them out from underfoot.  https://amzn.to/2qkGGkq  3. for christmas my parents got them these magnetic tiles - they are only allowed to play with them during workout time  https://amzn.to/2v13UBI 4. we have two of these awesome 'learning towers" that we setup at the counter (i workout right infront of this) here is a link to a similar one  https...

YUMMMMMY! This is my first time making a WHOLE FOOD PLANT BASED (WFPB) "VEGAN TUNA" SANDWICH and the verdict is that is it AAAAAAMAZING! :) I used 'just mayo" (chipotle flavor) and it tastes soooo good :) should you want to purchase items used in this post here is what I use and my amazon associate link to the items:  veggie chopper:  http://amzn.to/2sQ0fpg instant pot:  http://amzn.to/2HFimRV air fryer:  http://amzn.to/2EO0I0o vegan under pressure:  http://amzn.to/2FmOyZs mushroom slicer:  http://amzn.to/2F1uTRr everything but the bagel mix:  http://amzn.to/2FnwdM2 thug kitchen:  http://amzn.to/2FTksjb 

I've tried just about every workout program and fad diet out there and THIS IS FINALLY WORKING! WHY? when i first started this program a mom in a catholic mom group asked everyone in this mom group "what are you doing for our lady of fatima in the 100th year of her appearing?" AND I was blown way - i decided that i was going to offer up my fitness and food to our lady! She said to the children of Fatima that the devil would attack us through the family...and she attacks my family via food - making me not as good as a women bc of my desire for food - booooo! I focus my journey on faith, family, fitness and food. I consecrated myself to Jesus through our lady and offer all the graces I would receive to her to do with as she sees fit. She has taken those blessings and blessed me 1000 times more. If you want things to turn out better in life - offer them to our lady! She will always look out for you! if you want help figuring out how to do this...email me and i can he...

OKAY! You are ready to start the journey to become OBSESSED! To kick off you'll need to watch this video about what you'll need to buy, print, and do to get started off right. my biggest tip about succeeding at 80DO is to have an accountability group - journeying with someone a group is KEY to making it to day 80 :) Need a group email me at Alenedtorres@gmail.com and u can join mine :)

this marinade is AMAZING!!!! Typically, i just use liquid aminos and a little spicy sesame oil BUT THIS marinade from THUG KITCHEN is soooo legit! :)

Our local Chinese restaurant makes the best spicy garlic string beans!!! OR SO I THOUGHT!!!! My mom recreated and improved upon their recipe. I am head over heals fo these string beans! They are easy to do and reheat for food prep AWESOMELY! ENJOY!

 These enchiladas are amazing! My husband went back for seconds and then thirds! Let me just say that he doesn’t do that often. This will definitely become one of my go to meals. I think I might try and put the ingredients in the instant pot next! This is a fantastic dish to bring to a potluck or make for meal prep. Easy to portion out and absolutely delicious! Are used carrots instead of zucchini like the cookbook said kitchen called for. Primarily because I was out of zucchini LOL.  I will for sure be trying it with zucchini next. I may add some diced jalapeños as well.  I will for sure be trying it with zucchini next. I may add some diced jalapeños as well.

I found this AMAZING instant pot veggie medley from the cookbook Vegan Under Pressure! It is so easy, quick and yummy! For my meals I added a little bell pepper, with a portion of brown rice and some air fryer tofu.

Welcome to FIT FOR FATIMA where I focus my life on FAITH, FAMILY, FITNESS AND FOOD! I am a daughter of the KING, Wife to godly man (Manuel), and mother to two little (MariaVictoria 2015 and Manny 2016)! I started my journey for Fit for Fatima on January 2, 2017 with the idea that I wanted to eat healthy. I started using the 21 day fix meal plan and wasn't super motivated to do the workouts but was flirting with the 'country heat' program and tried doing the workouts a little.  I got kicked into high gear when I bought an instant pot and started following Modern Day Fox on social media. Before I knew it she was my beach body coach and we were trucking along on the journey I find myself on now. I lost 30lbs over the last year. Ive had ups and downs in my weight and motivation but because of my accountability group found myself sticking with the program and not quiting on myself.  Today marks one year on my...
