Welcome to My Personal Fitness Challenge Day 25

Welcome to My Personal Fitness Challenge Day 25

Felt like a pretty successful day today.  It was so busy, but I am getting smart!  I brought my home made Turkey Chilli with me and managed to eat it in between meetings. I really like it!  It really helps to avoid feeling so hungry you could die!  

I really looked forward to my workout this evening, and Wesley did not disappoint.  I actually felt "worked out" when we were done.  I am really excited about the sessions getting more challenging.  Bring it on!  I am not happy with my rate of weight loss.  I am really praying that come Saturday morning I see a bit of a drop.  It has been the same all week!  I need to raise the bar, I am going to increase my level of exercise going forward even if I don't feel like it.

I got home tonight and my family had pasta with this very yummy and low fat tomato and red pepper sauce. I looked at it and so wanted to have some.  I was starving after my workout, and I have not had it in so long! I went to the fridge to get my veggies and white protein out from behind the lemon marange pie my Dad made.  I told you he loves to cook. I got out my 4 oz of chicken and thawed it out.  I pulled out the spring mix and it didn't look good.  I had to to the grocery store.  On my way out the door my hubby and I had words.  It really ticked me off.  I got to the store and went around gathering my salad, avocado, cherry tomatoes and bananas.   

I made my way to the check out.  You know how you have to stand there while your waiting for your turn next to all the chocolate bars.  I am not a chocolate bar person normally but I was ticked off.  In about 10 seconds I had this internal self talk.  "Screw it, I should just buy a few and eat them, what am I doing this for?  Your doing it for you, not for him".  I bought my fresh produce and went home to make my salad and eat my chicken.  I enjoyed it!  I am doing this for me!!!
