Team Beachbody: 21 Day Fix Week 2 Wrap Up

First off, Let me apologize for the dwindleing ammount of blog posts. Problem here is that.... I am BUSY. So, sometimes I have to set priorities for things that must be done first, and unfortunately the blog gets pushed way off. I do figure that at writing one a week, you all will still see the benefits of how the 21 Day Fix is changing my life! I am learning a TON about my eating, and I am getting so much tone and definition.

Now on to the good stuff.... No smoke and mirrors, I am not perfect and I am doing this program to the best of my ability. I am seeing GREAT results and cannot wait to share them NEXT WEEK! wow its been a fast 3 weeks. I"

So, lets start with the positive of my week 2... I am seeing and FEELING results, I am NOT hungry, and I am NOT tired one bit. I am not craving sweets (and week two would have been the week for that as a lot of us LOVE our chocolate during that 'time'.... but I had my shakeology and it really really worked for curbing my cravings for sweets). And one last big positive to note, I am learning how to enjoy the things I love in moderation.

Then, there is the not so positive...... I missed a couple workouts so far in two weeks...I missed one cardio workout, and I missed yoga on this past Sunday. All I had were excuses, good ones for the one day, but excuses none the less. Weekends are SO hard!

I started the week off great, other than one missed work out on thursday (I picked my friends puppy up from the vet, and then the puppy threw up in my car. I took the opportunity to make her a greeting card.

I had to scrub the seats and really focus when I got home because I had a paper due.) The food last week was good, but started to get boring so I knew to amp it up for week three. You can only eat so much of one thing before you get bored and then you start missing meals. I missed a red container last week just once. For me, only missing one is pretty good, I will get so busy and actually forget to fuel my body... But I had chicken and Brussel sprouts a lot...

And I ran out of shakeology before I got my next shipment. Let me tell you that you DO NOT WANT TO RUN OUT

I could feel a difference, I'm a little sluggish and sleepy, with some tummy troubles :(

And then the weekend came.....

And I had a REAL OMG! moment.... I put on my "GOAL" shorts from the end of last summer....and I felt like they looked and felt AMAZING. I wasn’t embarrassed of my legs, I actually felt CONFIDENT. For the first time, I was okay with shorts weather, and shorts that came above my fingertips. Good feelings people!!!

The weekends and I have a REAL love/hate relationship. I get to spend time with my love, pups, family, friends, ect! but FOOOOOOD UGH its EVERYWHERE

But my friend and fellow coach bucked down and went to get the skinny on everything Beachbody at Super Saturday! This is Beachbody's quarterly meeting and I wouldn't miss it

So it didn’t surprise me when Jared and I said we were getting pizza on Saturday, so I planned for pizza not having YELLOW all day. However, I agreed to this KNOWING that my family was making a HUGE southern style breakfast Sunday morning.

Oh yes. We know how to do it right.... sausage gravy, biscuits, grits, eggs, fruit, ECT....

But, I used my containers, ate in moderation, skipped the bacon and went so light on the gravy.... I had my fruit, and was extremely satisfied.

Wellll it was sunny on Sunday.... and sunny warm 80 degree weather brings out the summer loving girl in me. So, I put on my bikini and put my tanning lotion on... but then I remembered I had that mango margarita slush in the freezer... darn there went my yellow container, and my blue too...and shoot....I am positive I am not allowed any tequila, and I added a little more....

A small glass, A little enjoyment but DAMN IT I wanted to do the program right.

SO, I meal prepped LIKE A BOSS for week 3. Finishing SO strong…and then I am going to do it AGAIN. YES, another round!

I am learning healthy habits. I am learning the best way to resist bad food is to have food ready....

Doubles week started this week. I started with a 3 mile run on Monday and I did the cardio fix. I was short on time with fitting my run in. SO I replaced Pilates. My girls in the group agreed that they thought this was more than OK and encouraged me. I have to give them a lot of credit. They keep pushing me and pushing themselves. Couldn’t have asked for a better mini challenge group!! But ultimately it is up to me to get the work done
