This week has been all about pushing myself just a little bit harder each day. The first few days were a little rough as I adjusted to eating a lot more food than I am use to. Each day I would try to eat a little more to build up to where I'm expected to be.
The good news is that I learned that I was over calculating how much liquid eggs whites I needed to eat. Five true egg whites are a lot less! Totally made a difference in my entire breakfast experience! I also learned how to make my protien shake taste good so that I can actually finish it! I look forward to drinking them now! I just added a little pb2 (powdered peanut butter)
Because I was already working out some, the weight lifting part isn't bothering me too much. Some of the exercises were tough but I did them all. I absolutely love the soreness you get after a great workout! The pain means progress so it makes me feel like I'm accomplishing something.
I'm proud to report that I am down a few pounds from when we started and I now weigh the lowest I have since probably a month into my pregnancy! I'm hoping in the next few weeks I can finally reach my pre-pregnancy weight!!
Today, tomorrow and Sunday are all rest days so we won't be working out, but we will continue to stay on the nutrition plan and I hope to come up with a few new recipes for the week. Even though it is an adjustment it is amazing how many awesome looking clean eating recipies there are!
