Ohh being a woman lol. After ending my cycle last week and getting better with adding some runs, I’m down 2 pounds from where I started the challenge and down 7 pounds from last week 😂 although I went up .1% in body fat. My goals have definitely changed. I am focusing on consistency rather than the bf %. That will come. I’ve started to wake up earlier to get in a run before work which has had a more than a few benefits and am being kinder to myself when life gets crazy by not defaulting to food and wine to make me feel better. My positive from this last week is I have a better mindset and understanding.

Disappointing first week. Up a few pounds and bf %. Although I like to think some of it has to do with our wonderful woman’s time of the month 🙃 But I do know I could have done better this week with hitting all my workouts and steps. I’m feeling really disappointed in myself, so I’ll use that as motivation this next week.

Up a pound and body fat. Disappointed in myself this week, I didn’t make it to the gym a couple of days. I’m still doing my best to hold myself accountable. I’ll try much harder this week. Also I’m going to be a bit vulnerable this post. I’ve been walking a fine line of depression for a while so it’s been tough to just get out of bed some days. It’s not an excuse but it is a real thing. Thank you all for being kind and helpful to each other.

We meal prep every week and I cook fresh dinners. I can’t eat mass prepared food for EVERY. SINGLE. meal lol Here are the high protein breakfasts and tonight’s dinner: salmon, shrimp and rice 😋 yes, @Nikki Johnson isn’t a breakfast girl so these burritos are perfect!

Thoroughly hated taking these lol, but it’s a starting point I guess. Goal is to drop body fat as close to or under 20% and get consistent using the peloton tread and our sauna.
