Still on my weight loss grind. Had a great week but only lost another pound. I made it to the gym 3 times this week but my goal was 4 so I fell short. No excuses, just didn't get it done.
I have 3 weeks before my trip to Miami to see King Bey which means I only 3 weeks left to get it together and meet my weight loss goal. With that being said, I've decided to 'turnup' up my diet and exercise game for these next 21 days! I've started my own little challenge, #turnup21 which is basically me turning down the plate and turning up my efforts. I've learned a lot about myself since I started getting serious about my weight loss and blogging about it in April so I feel like I know what works best for me. I know they say you can have all things in moderation, but that doesn't apply to me (yet) so I have to steer clear of certain foods. I also know that I do much better with my weight loss when I cut out bread, rice and pasta so I'll continue to do this. I know that snacks are my biggest downfall. Although I've been sticking to a controlled snacking plan (200 calories a day) I know that I should be eating better snacks. So for the next 21 days I'll be doing the following:
- not eating any bread, pasta and rice
- drinking only water
- snacking only on fresh fruits and veggies (sorry Motts)
- not eating anything after 7pm
- working out for at least an hour, 6 days a week
This is definitely going to be hard for me, but its called a challenge for a reason. If you want to see different results you have to do something different. Now, this is just what I'm doing, it's not for everyone. However, I challenge you to do something different for the next 21 days. Maybe step up your workout game from 1 day a week to 2. Cut out soda and coffee for the next 21 days. Try incorporating more veggies into your meals. Whatever it is that will help you meet your weight loss/fitness goal, JUST DO IT (shout out to Nike for that one)!
I'll be posting daily pics on Instagram under #turnup21. So be sure to follow me at @shopsweatheart and if you'd like to join me in this challenge, use the the hashtag #turnup21 so we can see your pics!
If we can 'turnup' in the club and for everything else, we can 'turnup' for our health!
