So I didn't lose any weight this week (actually gained a pound), but the pictures of before I started lifting weights and now look more toned and slim. I'm hoping that at this point my body is getting used to weightlifting and that I will start dropping pounds again. I have decided to shock my body even more for about a week and a half and cut carbs way back and start the day with a protein shake courtesy of my fitness guide, Andrea, who has been super awesome in keeping me motivated and helping my mindset stay straight.
Tonight was the first time that I have looked in the mirror while working out that I didn't think I looked like a big old tub of lard, and that felt GREAT! So that is the reason I'm taking everything to another level to try and shock my body out of this stagnancy.
We will see how the protein shake goes starting tomorrow morning. I've also made 1 of my 2 snacks a day solely a V8 so I can get more veggies. In addition, I'm drinking AT LEAST a gallon of water a day. I've also amped up my cardio another 5-10 minutes. I'm really hoping that all these things, in addition to the extra change I've made in my workout routine, will help me get past this plateau. Wish me luck! I'll keep you all updated!
