First off, Red Dawn rocked it this am!! Their cardio is improving a lot so I'm stepping up their workouts... We got in a good 15 minutes of cardio drills after our superset workout this am. I'm sure several people on the team wanted to run out of the room, but they all stuck with it and kicked booty! That's the exact energy we need to overcome the challenges you are facing. You can do it! I know emotions are running high, energy is going from high to low throughout the day, and finding healthy food choices in place of unhealthy cravings is a big obstacle right now. Cravings are subsiding for some people, but still driving hard in others. So far, they've been able to walk away from cravings, and now we need to make sure you all keep that up! The longer you go, the less these cravings will occur. Stay strong, dig deep, remember your goals and the steps you've made already. Each and every one of you can beat your cravings and get past these walls you are seeing. We are climbing each day! The emotions are normal. My best advice is to allow yourself to feel what you are feeling so you can heal and grow from it. Forgive yourself for the choices you've made that you aren't happy with and focus on what you can do now to move forward in a healthier, happier way.
On a side note ... let's share some healthy recipes or meals that you've found that you enjoy. We need to find healthy ways you can keep up your "diets". A diet itself isn't what you need. We need to find ways to help you enjoy healthy meals and make that a lifestyle and not a ten week challenge. Cooking is not at all my strong point! I've found Tosca Reno's cookbooks very helpful. She has several eat clean cookbooks out there with healthy ways to spice up your food and make it more palatable. Anyone have some good meals to share?
