Week 2 HERE WE GO!

My prayer for this journey is "Dear GOD, please sustain me through this journey. Please help me stay inspired and energized to see this through.  Please help me remove the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual blocks that have kept me waiting with this weight. I invite health, vitality, flexibility and joy into this process. I am now healthy, vibrant and fit. Thank you for this opportunity to thrive!" -TDL

So Labor Day weekend was truly a test on my commitment!! I had the opportunity to be extra lazy but I wasn't and got 2 workouts in, YAY!

Saturday 9/3: 90min Bikram Yoga



That made me feel awesome because I feel I'm truly sticking to the commitment of getting fit. The only thing I do feel guilty about was my portion control on Sunday, I def ate too much and then my tummy hurt! I felt super bad afterwards but decided to make up for it by pushing myself harder during the week! I expected the holiday weekend to be a big party time but my friends were being womp! LOL Instead we just chilled and they were each telling me of there own journey with fitness and what worked and what didn't. I had some doubts that I got to discuss with them and they definitely encouraged me to stop being afraid and stop making excuses! I've been weighing myself at home but I don't want to trust that number, wish weigh-ins and measurements were every week!

Monday 9/5: 1hr at Planet Fitness

My 3 goals for Week 2

• Keep consistent meal times. I tend to wake up late so I'm rushing through breakfast or even skip it all together then I get busy at work meeting deadlines and eat later than I should which makes me feel starved! I'm still getting really hungry late at night after midnight.
• Portion control. By keeping consistent meal times I will avoid feeling like I could eat a cow and therefore help me stick to my portions.
• Push through the pain. I don't believe in my strength enough and so I wanna push myself to at least try level 2 at BTC. I get a lot of pain in my lower back and in calves & ankles but with new shoes after the 15th I hope it gets better!
