I remember sitting in those same all day work meetings less than two years ago, when lunch would be brought in and I would justify in my head why I could eat 2 rolls, a sandwich, chips and two giant cookies. "I just won't eat the rest of the day", I would think to myself.
I sat in that same type of meeting today with those same tempting foods staring back at me and instead chose to excuse myself during lunch to grab my chicken and broccoli I had brought from home. So what is the difference between then and now? I have now learned how to eat healthy in order to fuel my body throughout the day, and the urge to binge eat unhealthy foods just because they are there is not a constant battle for me anymore.
BUT lets be real here for a second. I wanted a cookie, and when I am done with this challenge you can bet that one of my first treat meals will include some type of chocolate something.
Sumo squat + bicep curl = ouch! |
As for my workout this morning, the getting out of bed part was not easy. Which is just one of the many reasons I am happy that my husband is doing this with me. He pushes me not just in my workouts, but literally out of bed. This morning was Upper Fix Extreme and it was much better than last week. Just like yesterday, it didn't seem nearly as difficult and my arms are getting stronger! This little sumo bicep curl was tough and that is a forced smile on my face.
The beauty below was dinner and the FIRST time I have ever made tilapia. So yummy and I am patting myself on the back for not messing it up!
