It's Friday again! Today has been a great day! As much as I wanted to start my exciting day off with my workout I was busy preparing for moms group. Instead I got a nice, energizing workout in after all the mamas and their cute boys left.
Today was a tough workout! Today is day 25 of my fitness and health journey and this workout certainly tested my limits. Yesterday I realized that a lot of fitness challenges advertise HIIT workouts so I questioned the trusty Google for some information. Turns out the fitness journey I have embarked on has "high intensity interval training" and I can attest that HIIT gives you a phenomenal workout. I have found that doing quick, intense workouts helps me to get a great workout without throwing in the towel. I believe the rapid change helps me complete a satisfying and challenging workout. Eating this week has been very challenging. I nanny part time for a great family but their pantry has so many tempting treats I often want to eat. Thankfully I can tell myself this food is not mine but being around the treats makes eating healthy at home harder. Needless to say I have eaten more carbs than I would have liked to, especially today. However, like I said in my first fitness Friday post, if I am successful 80% of the time that is something to be proud of. I also need to remind myself that eleminating carbs is not the method of diet I have chosen. I have slowly been trying to incorporate prayer into my health and fitness in a very casual manner and I must say I am more joyful in the midst of health and fitness challenges. Praying about my health and fitness has also encouraged me to bring all challenging aspects of my life to prayer. I am on a journey for sure! That is my update! And here are my numbers: Pre-Preg : 163 Six week PP: 175 Last week weigh in: 170 Today (Day 25): 169 (whoot whoot!) And here is Killian while I was exercising 😄
