21 Day Fix Week 2 Update and Progress - Plus Meal Plan

Week 2 is completed...week 3 begins!  

I'm starting the 3rd week of workouts and eating plan. I'm learning some new things about myself thru this process, both about my eating habits and my workout habits.

Meals

My eating habits...well, let's face it...I love my oatmeal, through and through. I've known that about myself but didn't realize how much I crave that in the mornings. When I have my oatmeal, I hate only having a single yellow serving size of oatmeal. Literally I think it's too small. So I've had to adjust to that size or use 2 of my yellow containers. But them I feel like I miss out on my other favorites like sweet potatoes and quinoa. So do I have a solution?  Not really, other than to just vary it and learn that it's a give and take for my yellow container. 

Cauliflower Rice

Although I will say that because of this "problem" with lack of yellow containers, I've learned to try new alternatives that incorporate my green veggie containers in place of the yellow containers. Here are 2 of my favorites...spaghetti squash and cauliflower rice!!!  These totally satisfy my craving to have a grain like quinoa or brown rice, yet it doesn't take away that container for the day!!  I make a big batch if these to have for the week and it works wonders!!

Workouts

I've really had a different outlook with these workouts last week. I've enjoyed then in a new way. Even though, I'll be honest, I've struggled getting up at 5 am each morning I've pushed through it. I have literally had a conversation in my head each morning debating whether or not to get up and workout. Something like this, "oh I'm so tired and the bed feels so good" "but, I've really enjoyed the workout one I get started, it really isn't that bad, you know you should get up and workout", "oh but I am so tired", "come on you can do it...just get up"!!

Literally, I had this conversation every morning last week, but every morning the GOOD VOICE on my head WON!! I know I have turned a corner when I can say that!  So that's a major victory for sure. 

I am definitely feeling stronger doing these workouts even though the scale hasn't changed that much, I'm ok with that. This is a process and a journey and above all I am shaping new habits and new lifestyles!
