So I decided to do another round of 21 Day Fix. I started the week before going back to work because I needed to be in the middle of a program so I wouldn't have any excuses to get started. I decided on the 21 Day Fix because the workouts are 30 minutes (which is key for me) and I love these workouts. But mainly, I needed a good excuse to get back focused with the containers.
All summer I had been working out and getting results. But I was still hanging onto weight around my mid section. This weight just wasn't wanting to come off! And it wasn't because I wasn't active enough. It had to do with my eating. I wasn't eating poorly at all. I was just over eating the wrong food! I love love love breads and cereal (and granola). So basically I was working out hard and by sitting on the couch with containers of Shredddies, I was working against myself.
This is me before
So last Sunday I committed to starting the containers again. I have a calendar that I printed up off the internet and it is on the fridge. Trust me, if I could make one as amazing as this I would, but I just don't know how. If anyone knows, please, please message me! I need help in this department BIG TIME! Every night I have been writing out my meal plan on the calendar and that way I know what to eat and it helps keep me away from snacking.
After week 1 I am seeing results. I haven't weighed myself again....yet. For me, it really isn't about the numbers, but more the inches and how strong and fit I feel. A dress my husband got for our anniversary back in July now fits with ease. :)
I am eating everything that I want but with more veggies and fruits. I found that there were many days in the summer that I maybe had 1 serving of vegetables a day (not enough!). I am also focusing on drinking more water throughout the day. My goal is to drink a shaker cup of water between each break at school, one before recess, one before lunch and then one before 3 pm.
This week my favourite workout was Upper Fix. I love working my arms. It makes me feel strong. I have also been trying to do the Ab Fix 3 days a week as well.
Looking forward to starting week 2.
Thanks for reading,
Kristin
