So unfortunately I have not been very successful with any of my goals... :( I'm pretty bummed about it! I weighed myself this morning and I have actually gained weight since we started this challenge...in an effort to be positive, at least this has created some motivation for me to try harder. I also had some of my students from Belize asking me about how I am doing with push ups so that reminded me to practice this week!
I stopped taking birth control after Mexico since I had not had my period for 3 months and my hair was thinning etc. Katie - I don't know how you said that it has been fabulous, it has been miserable for me! I have been craving SO MUCH food, chocolate, chips, etc. I have also been so moody. It was a very difficult month, this next month has been a little easier, not great, but easier. When I went for my bloodwork she told me that it would take at least two months for it to be out of my system. Apparently my hormones are out of whack when they are not regulated!
This is our Holy Week so I am trying to not eat meat and dairy (I was supposed to do that the whole 40 days but that would never happen). I did ok today, but I did have an Auntie Annie's pretzel.
My challenge this week will be to not gain anything at Easter on Sunday!
Don't give up yet! It definitely is hard and also discouraging when you aren't reaching your goals...but don't worry you're not alone :) I know sometimes when I am so obsessed with loosing weight I gain and then when I stop thinking about it so much it comes off! Weird! Just keep going...eventually we will all start to make some progress!!
