This Week!

So I have made it through almost 8 days of the 21 Day Fix Extreme Countdown to Competition Plan. The workouts are some the BEST workouts that I have done. Just the right amount of soreness. I am certain I will continue them after the 21 days. The meal plan has been challenging, but I think I am getting used to it now. I am usually short a protein on the strict days due to the fact that I just can't eat anymore. I have found that I have had a side effect of less digestive regularity on the strict days. I feel like my GI tract is very sensitive and I hate not being regular because that is NOT something that I struggle with at all. My remedy so far that seems to be working is to add flaxseed to my oatmeal on the Countdown to Competition (CTC) days. I had lost 4.8lbs on day 5, but haven't weighed myself since then. I am starting to feel leaner today on day 8.

Here is my Meal Plan for the week...

It's been a while...

Hello there! It's been a while huh? Um I think about 3 years!! A lot has happened in those 3 years...3 places of work, pregnancy, and mom life! So what's new?? I worked at a small outpatient clinic...didn't like it! Went to an awesome hospital in the city...LOVED it!! Then after having my son took a position at a local hospital...only 8 minutes from home vs the hospital in the city which was 55 minutes on a good traffic day! I found out I was prego a few days before Christmas 2016...yes it was planned. For YEARS, we said NO kids ever! My father died in 2015 and my whole thought process on kiddos changed! Landon David arrived 8/14/17 via planned c section...he was breech! I stressed myself out incredibly too much about sleep, breastfeeding, being perfect, etc AND I suffered from Postpartum Depression and Anxiety! One thing I have learned about Motherhood is that you can plan, but you have to expect the unexpected!! Once I accepted this, my anxiety died down A LOT...
