I just finished Week 2 of my first round of 21 Day Fix. To be honest, this wasn’t the best week. I was busier than normal. My boys refused to nap. My husband had school and work obligations. I had a lot to catch up on with the house. I had to prepare for my anniversary and for Thanksgiving. I was busy. I felt like there were not enough hours in the day to get everything I had to do done. I just was not feeling very motivated. We all have those days. That’s what us mommies and wives/girlfriends do. We take care of our families, we get overwhelmed and we feel overworked. So sometimes, that means we skip a workout or we don’t eat according to plan…
That was my week and it’s okay. That’s life. Things happen. We can’t plan for everything; what we can do is keep moving forward. You missed a workout? Make up for it the next day. You didn’t eat as well as you should have for lunch? Make a healthy dinner.
Despite my week’s obstacles and excuses (yes, they are excuses), I still had RESULTS. During Week 2 I struggled more when it came to my meal plan but I did all the workouts. Weight loss is 80% diet and 20% fitness. That being said, I didn’t lose weight this week (I gained 2 pounds), but I still lost inches!
- During Week 2 alone I lost an additional 1.5 inches from my body.
- In comparison to Day 1 I have lost 5.5 inches, and 2.2 pounds so far.
I know my results would have been better if I had been more consistent with meal planning and prepping. But to have still lost inches even after gaining a little weight back, I couldn’t be happier. After all muscle takes up less room than fat.
My body is feeling great! I am feeling stronger and more flexible. I don’t have to modify the workouts as much as I did last week. These simple workouts are EFFECTIVE! They work! Before measuring myself, I noticed my arms and thighs looking slimmer and my calves looking more toned! I’m noticing the changes in the way my body looks and feels and performs.
I’m 2/3 of the way through and time has gone so fast, you guys! 21 days is not a long time. Give yourself 30 minutes a day for 3 weeks and I promise you will feel and look better! Week 3 is the last week of my first round on 21 Day Fix. I plan to give it my all this week and finish off strong!
