Today is the start of my week two. I will say that I am the kind of person that likes to stay busy and I have had not much to do for the past three days so I was extremely restless and tortured by my fridge all weekend. But I made it and weighed in at exactly 2 pounds down from last week !! Wahoo !
I am still trialing my plan as I have not walked everywhere but have walked to the gym several times. I have also cut back on TV but have not canceled it all together. The no coffee and no sugar have not been so bad as I have found other ways to enjoy these types of comforts. I have allowed myself to take cat naps , and have been eating peanut butter and cinnamon protein bars before or after my work outs . They are amazing and take the edge off my sweet tooth and give me energy that I need. I have also been taking my study notes to the gym and reading them while I work out so that I am not so focused on how long I have been walking. So over all still good.
Now - the extra spending part had been a little hard as I have been buying my protein bars at work and at the gym and did attend a girls night out and some family time where money was spent on food. So I will have to watch this more closely . I think that I will try and make my own protein bars as I have seen a few in magazines or on pinterest. Still working on the cooking at home as I DREAD the idea of trying to figure out what to eat every day. But I still need to feed my body to fuel my body to workout and be mentally strong.
One week down , the start of week two has begun and I hope and pray that this week will be better and that I will continue to find the strength within myself and God to move forward , resist temptation, and be a better version of myself every day. -
