I felt great this morning, I woke up and didn't even need to hit the snooze button. I got to sleep on time, and I avoided unhealthy food yesterday. I did my workout and made all 5 of my healthy small meals count. I was a bit hungry when I went to bed, but that is okay. I worked hard, and this morning I woke up and weighed 2.5 pounds less than I did this time last week. I like to think I was supposed to lose one pound last week and two this week, but because my hormones were so crazy that I got it this week.
Such Amazing motivation to keep going. I was meticulous with my calories and I stayed on top of pumping up my exercise. I really worked to make sure I was getting my heart rate up and mixing up intervals as well as gym vs. outside.
With all the pollen NC is being attacked with, I am liking my indoor workouts too. I have dug up some of my old school workout videos, which are kicking my butt now since it has been so long since I actually did most of them.
Bad news is that my teammate had a weight gain of .4. I felt bad for her, but she knows where she went wrong. She did drink alcohol, and she knows she has trouble losing when she drinks. At the start of the game she had said she was not going to, but ended up drinking twice this week... Well the fun of the game on diet is that now she has lost all alcohol privileges for the rest of the game, which I feel bad and good about at the same time. She knows that is a trouble spot, but she will definitely benefit from not drinking for the next two weeks. In true team solidarity I have decided not to drink anymore either. I know it will benefit me, and I did have some cider on friday with my friends, but clearly I should have only ordered one, but I fall to peer pressure just like everyone else, and I was tired and thirsty and it was so delicious. But I think it will be better for me to just drink water!
And keep an eye on that teammate of mine. The other team, both of the girls also lost 2 pounds each this week. So there is no reason My team won't have a perfect week this next week.
I am certain that I can keep this up. I am saving money and enjoying the happiness that doing something for myself is bringing me. I am totally positive today. I need to learn to live this way, just like I feel in this moment right now!
