Week 2 Roundup

Week 2 weight loss - 0.4 lbs

I felt so strong in my workouts this week.  I was nervous about my hour long "Last Chance" workout on Saturday since the previous week had been grueling; however, I owned it. I felt great. I was tired and sweaty, but I worked hard right until the end. I feel my body adapting back into working out.

This was my third week of Whole30 and the ability to resist temptations is so easy when giving in is not an option. I am definitely and all-or-nothing kind of gal so I worry about my abilities to continue resisting temptations after the 30 days. I already have a weekend of binging planned when I'm done but I am seriously considering starting another 30 day track immediately thereafter. I don't feel mentally strong enough to resist fast food and treats yet.

I am frustrated with the meager weight loss this week because I feel confident that I did everything right. I ate well without overeating. I exercised 4 times this week. I'm not sure what I'm doing or not doing that is preventing more weight from coming off.

This week my focus will be on incorporating more vegetables into my diet and limiting the amount of fruit I'm eating. I also will focus on my water intake, making sure that I'm getting enough.

So instead of celebrating a big loss on the scale this week I'll celebrate the fact that my abs feel stronger and my pants are a bit looser. Small victories are victories nonetheless!
