Review of the week:
Overall the week went really well. I no longer really have any cravings and I no longer really have to think about what I'm eating, it's now just how I eat. Hitting this stage makes it a lot less stressful and makes me like this whole thing even more. Also, daily I have more natural energy and I no longer even want coffee, I am sleeping better, and emotionally I'm very balanced. Thank god for foods nourishing my body and naturally balancing my hormones.
I have noticed that I have been over indulging on nuts/fats but I think it is just because I feel like I need some more calories. This is my body's way of telling me I need it because I always want fats at night.
My workouts have been really good, I didn't miss a workout and Olivia has been good through every workout so I can finish them without her fussing. I am doing a bikini babe program that was created by an instagrammer I follow (efitmama) and so far I really like it. Sometimes I feel like it's not enough (workouts between 25-35mins) and I want to do more but I think I'm going to stick to it and pace myself. I have always been one of those people that obsess about exercise and always want to do more so I'm going to try and break that habit. Well, for at least these 8 weeks so I can see this program through.
I can tell I'm losing weight still which is always good. I'm back in my skinny jeans which is awesome and totally amazed by. I guess sticking to a program (workout and diet) is worth it in the end.
New things this week:
I am trying Lush Cosmetic products for the first time. I want to keep all my body care products very natural because I am breastfeeding so Lush is what I decided on. I will keep you guys updated on how it works for me but so far (after 3 days) I absolutely love the products. My skin is so soft and the redness on my face is already decreasing
Also, Last night I ordered all the things I need to start brewing my own kombucha which I'm super excited about. One of the things I'm making more of a priority is making sure I get enough probiotics in my diet. I take a probiotic daily but I would much rather get them from whole foods. I bought some bubbies brand pickles and sauerkraut which are both amazing… but expensive… same with store bought kombucha… so that's why Im determined to make some of my own Kombucha and maybe eventually venture into making sauerkraut and pickles.
Well thats all for this week…
Any Questions? Just ask!
