Well I have completed week 2 successfully, and am starting week 3 as of TODAY! So far everything is going well! I am down a total of 8 pounds.. I have to figure out how to edit my ticker on the side so you can easily see what I am down.
I am staying pretty full, and enjoying most of my food so far (see pictures below). There have been a few things that have grossed me out, like the Chicken Breast and the Burger wasn't too appetizing, but for the most part the food has been pretty good. I went out to eat, and ordered a salad twice, it wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be. I kept it pretty plain, chicken breast, veggies, no cheese and fat free dressing. I also had 2 glasses of wine.. maybe I would have lost 5 pounds again and not 3 this week if I didn't have those 2 glasses, but oh well :) I have to hit up the grocery store tonight and get some stuff to prep for the rest of the week. Again, true test is going to be NOLA this weekend. I want to lose another 2 before Friday to put me UNDER 200lbs. I will be ECSTATIC if that happens. I am slammed this week so its going to be tough to find time to run, but that's just life I suppose.
I think the hardest thing for me so far is drinking enough water, and remembering to eat! It is hard to eat 6 times a day. And I just want French Fries :( haha
I took some time to prep some food last night, and that is really helpful, it only takes an hour, and I just have to grab and go with my snacks or "powerfuels" and "smartcarbs"
Below are some pics of some more of the meals I have eaten!
Lunch one day! Chicken Parm (wasnt crazy about it) and shredded chicken on the side
Chocolate Doughnut in the am (the chocolate melted off), Chicken Parm, and a pizza for dinner! Yum! Pizza was awesome!
Shredded Chicken for lunch with mashed potatoes, asparagus, macarroni and cheese, and a piece of toast for dinner!
Well I didn't have a great week with running, and I definitely didn't make it to Pure Barre as many times as I would have liked. I am also feeling guilty about my exercise this week as well. I haven't worked out since Monday and today is Wednesday! I can't make it to Pure Barre tonight, and I am going out of town on Friday. I might try to get in a quick run today and tomorrow, but it is so difficult when I feel like I have 100 other things to be doing. Need some motivation to run considering my half is in 2 and a half months, and I have the Hot Chocolate Race in December, and I'll probably do the Womens 5k at the beginning of November.
Wish me luck this weekend in NOLA I'll need it!
