9 weeks out tomorrow….
SAY WHAT?!?!?!?! It can’t be! I still have so far to go! But how far I have come… now THAT is incredible.
I was discouraged earlier, but I decided I am not going to post about it – because I am no longer feeling discouraged. I am anticipating my diet changing this week, so I prepped my food and shopped according to what I feel like is going to be reduced macros.
I am ready. My training this week was a NEW plan and BOY did it hurt. Leg day? Talk about squats, deads, AND sumo deads. I have some pretty neat bruises on my shins, SEE?!?!? Battle wounds.
Also, fitting in 3 solid cardio sessions was a tad ahrder than I thought. i am not used to spending a solid 2 hours in the gym – this is including some serious stretching. Like, stretching how I used to. I miss the days when I had 45 min every night just to stretch. I stretch like how I did when I was a dancer – and that for me is calming, it challenges me in the best way, and I love it. I am so happy and i am going to fit it in 2-3x per week now. I miss my flexibility and damnit I am GOING to get it back!
This week is the last week of school, so it will be pretty low key and I can really focus on my new business and my training.
New Business? Stay tuned 😉
Right now I am pretty pooped. I have some last minute food prepping to do for this week and am eating my last meal and am waiting for a load in the washer so I can throw it in the dryer.
I wish I wasn’t pooped thought… I have SO MUCH MORE I need to talk about right now I feel.
This week in my progress pics I feel like I am tightening up more which is WONDERFUL. I also have noticed on my own that my muscles are starting to LOOK more defined all over – arms, legs, abs, you name it. I am definitely making progress. I hope Coach is pleased because I sure am. Check me out!!!
Last night I had some MUCH NEEDED girl time. This whole weekend I was pretty social – went out to a party Friday night and had girls night at a friends house last night and I think I needed it. I am feeling mentally recharged. I was going stir crazy for a while since it seemed I was so busy and everyone else was so busy and there was no time for playing, just working. Not to mention the last 3 weekends in a row I took stuff home for work. And I try my hardest to limit my homework so I can have a healthy balance and still enjoy my job. So I work hard during the week, use my time wisely, and stay on top of stuff enough that I can get it done! But, once in a while, the extra time does need to get put in and that is when you just gotta gut it out on your own time. And it was totally worth it.
I hope you had a restful weekend! I know I did – at least I had a mentally recharging weekend which was way overdue. I have LOTS more to say this week about LOTS of stuff so keep your eyes peeled!
SO MANY THOUGHTS, SO LITTLE TIME .
But I like it that way!
