Well, well.. Week 3 has come and gone! And all I can say is I'm sick of chicken.. and turkey! But I have found a new love for eggs, beans and cottage cheese! I do not like vanilla protein powder.. I am definitely a CHOCOLATE GIRL!! And that's all for the nutrition report!
The workouts were great this week! They are definitely doing the job. I was more sore this week then I have been previously. I think I need to take more time to stretch And I need a massage! Mentally I am having a hard time this week. I am learning to shift my vices from eating my stress and/or anxiety away to working it out in the gym! No more retail therapy, or "sappy" (aka sad/happy) eating for this chick! The "high" I get from the increase of my endorphins from working out is becoming SO addicting. I love the way I feel after a tough workout. Mentally knowing I have challenged myself and survived, is like a little victory everyday that carries me through to the next day! I love letting my stress out physically "productively" verses harming myself by eating crap food. That was only ever a temporary band-aid anyways.
I think the biggest thing I have learned this week is to just keep going. Even when I didn't want to, I went. And I felt great after the workout and I would think to myself.. "why didn't I want to come again?" Perseverance baby! That's what it's all about! You are stronger then you think.. You body is stronger then you think. You are your own worst critic and skeptic.. BUT if you turn that around 180 degrees.. you can become your own BEST MOTIVATOR and your BEST & BIGGEST FAN!!
Until Next Week!
Love,
Samantha :)
