I hope everyone had a great week! I can’t believe we are week 9 of this challenge! I feel like I was just writing up week 8. This week went pretty well, just need a little improvements 🙂
(Goal is to lose 30lbs by my 29th birthday on July 16th)
Week 8: Down 1.5lbs
TOTAL DOWN: Considering I was up 4lbs last week, I am still up. BUTTTT this week, I lost. That I am happy about 🙂
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nutrition: Pretty Good
I have been tracking everyday, and I have been getting less than 80 of carbs. This week I want below 60. I can do this!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Workouts: Good
- Saturday: Strength workout from Angela
- Sunday: off
- Monday: 12 hour shift
- Tuesday: Muscle works class at the gym 🙂
- Wednesday: 12 hour shift
- Thursday: sick day 😦
- Friday: 15 min elliptical + 10 minute no excuse workout (I did this 2x with sets, not a time)
Lots more weights this week! my body defiantly feeling it, and liking it. I did miss my spin class and rowing. But I think I will try and incorporate both weights + cardio 🙂
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sleep quality and duration: Alright
I defiantly could work on this this week
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How I was feeling: stressed
My MRI test and the result of my CT test were REALLY weighing on me. Need to get some yoga in my life, or a massage
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Things I did well: Workouts
Things I need to work on: getting the weight off!
Even though I probably won’t make 30 by 29, I am still going to plow through. If I lose or not, I am not going to stress about it. Just try and be healthy eat day, and keep track if the weight goes up or down. Just see what happens!
