t’s the start of the final week of the challenge, and for a lot of us (myself included), this Monday is about getting back on track after a weekend of a little extra living.
Maybe you ate out more than usual, had a few drinks, or just loosened up on tracking. That’s okay — temporary spikes on the scale don’t erase your progress.They’re just a reflection of extra food, water, and sodium — NOT fat gain
Here’s what matters most: getting back to the habits that got you feeling your best earlier in the challenge:
✅ Eat high-protein, high-fiber meals today.
✅ Hit your step goal and get your body moving.
✅ Drink plenty of water to flush out excess sodium.
✅ Most importantly — don’t overcorrect. Just return to your normal, consistent rhythm.
