OMG! Scary Spice (Mel B) has the body I want to have even after having a baby. Have you seen her.? She has, like, 12 pack
abs. I had to insert a picture just for reference. Someone was telling me that she does 1000 crunches every other day. I have to start doing some core workouts ’cause my back is killing from lifting my baby girl all the time.
I am on a mission to get in shape as part of my 90 day Challenge. I have been doing really well with the nutrition aspect and am now kicking up the exercise. Today I ran about a mile and a half before getting ready to attack my work for the day. It felt great, but I felt really heavy while doing it. I haven’t really run, which is my favorite exercise, in about 3 weeks. The second week of my vacation I totally fell off of doing any workouts, and the first week back at work I totally didn’t work out at all. I walked a couple of miles this weekend, and that felt great BUT its not enough. I want to make a major change.
I’ll keep you posted on my Scary Spice transition as the 90 days go along. Wish me luck and a lot of will power because I love chocolate chip cookies…lol. Nichole Ayanna signing off!

I really believe that by putting my goals out there for the world to see will put me under the pressure and keep me accountable enough to actually accomplish these goals. It’s definitely something I think is scary to do, BUT I think it will keep me in check because I don’t like to give excuses as to why I didn’t accomplish something. So before I write down my goals for the 90 Day Challenge, I have to truly analyze what I can give myself to do without overwhelming myself. I’ve to balance and be realistic. So here is a list so far…
I want to get out at least one email newsletter a week, so that my friends,family and fans (which can all be one person:)) can be kept up to date on the new things that are going on in my life as well as when they can see a new performance or get my latest release. I need to hire a babysitter just to assist me a couple of days a week so that I can practically have another set of eyes and hands watching the baby. I can set aside some time to practice more, get some performance footage, get my email newsletter out and get some much needed couple time with my hubby. I want to maintain a good work out regimen. I have been running a few miles at a time with 4-5 mile runs on Saturday mornings at the beach…BUT haven’t been for the past couple of weeks. I’ve gotta get back on it because I need to lose the last bit of baby weight that I gained when I was pregnant. I want to step my workouts up a notch and probably go to the gym a couple of times a week during lunch. I want to find and buy a house, too. Ok…weremy goals a little too ambitious; 1 email newsletter a week, hiring a babysitter, practicing and tapig performances, date nights with hubby, regular workouts and, buying a house. I think it is all doable, especially if I follow my own advise I’ve written about in previous blogs about scheduling mytime as a Singer/Mommy/Wife /Motivator.
I’ll keep you all updated as to where I am and what has been accomplished. Let me know what your goals are and we can keep eachother accountable. Good luck. Peace and soul grease, Nichole Ayanna
