Week 3 Challenge Recap

I feel really good about this past week. In other words, my bounce-back from Disney went well!

I was a mess at the beginning of the week. Nothing was ready, I somehow forgot some groceries, dishes weren't clean and ready for me to prep. I got through Monday by going the "out to eat" route.

Blender was dirty so I ate an apple that morning before my workout.

I did end up having a smoothie for breakfast, from Tropical Smoothie, who I had conversed with on a previous occasion to confirm they were using fresh ingredients and that nothing more was added than what was listed on their menu.

Nuts and raisins for my snack.

Lunch was a strawberry poppyseed salad from Panera, with half the amount of dressing than they give you - chicken on the side and I warm it up and eat it separately (don't ask. I'm just weird when it comes to salad).

So I made it through the day pretty well considering I failed miserably at prep and was completely EXHAUSTED.

Oh yeah, bonus, I drove all the way to the gym that morning, to realize that I forgot my water bottle at home, and instead of using my brain and driving into the gas station next door, I drove all the way back home to get my water bottle.

Yeah, it was one of THOSE weeks.

Regardless of the beginning of my week, I still stuck to my nutrition and workout plans and was happy with my weigh in this morning. I'm still on the right track!

This was also a very stressful week, so that was a win as well - no emotional eating!!!!

Yesterday (Sunday) I went to spin class as usual, and hit my personal best, 186 Energy. Just wanted to bring it up because I was actually only shooting for 175 and obviously meet and went over my goal. Guess I'll have to shoot for 200 next week!

I've met my DietBet goal and am now patiently awaiting official weigh in day and to see how much money I'll get back from it.

Disney is coming up soon again! Mom and I will be going in 13 days. I've been researching the menus of the restaurants we have booked so I can make healthier decisions. The challenge will officially be over, but I still have more fat to lose! So I'll be continuing to follow the program!

Sorry for being so scatterbrained today. Here's to hoping next week I will be better ;)

XOXOXO
