Day 13-16 - Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday
Friday I totally failed the abs workout because of my arm and most of the workout is on the floor. Oh, and I have no ab muscles. Saturday was the lower muscle group workout and that one is my favorite! Rocked it! Sunday, there was no workout and I will explain why in just a minute. Monday was the total body workout and I would say I gave it a modified 80% effort.
So all in all, I am failing at this challenge. In a previous post, I mentioned my 30 day paleo/crossfit challenge that I had completed and succeeded at, though this was prior to breast cancer. (BC) I am convinced that this challenge is not working in my favor because my diet is no good. I am trying to eat healthier but not giving it enough of an effort. This weekend we celebrated an early Christmas with some family members that live a couple hours away. The party consisted of several finger foods, along with pizza and wings. I knew better than to eat the pizza and wings so I ate nothing. Instead, I drank 3 glasses of Moscato. That may have been worse than just eating the pizza! Needless to say, there was no working out on Sunday because I couldn't move myself from the couch. 3 glasses of wine did a number on my stomach and my head!
So, in order to turn things around and not give up on my challenge, I am going to try paleo foods for 3 days out of the week. I've done the paleo challenge and it just is impossible for me to live on that food plan, but I could manage three days a week.
In 2 days, I need to measure my progress and check my weight and I am afraid I haven't lost any weight. This is that part of a diet where I get depressed because I am not seeing results... I need some inspiration to hang on and not give up...
