Day #3

Let's be honest...there isn't much to talk about here. I mean, I am still on my 10 Day Challenge. I am trying to eat well. I have exercised each day so far. Today was a stretching workout which has made me feel relaxed and ready for bed. I am tired.

What do I want? I am not really sure, but I am hungry. I ate well today - fruit, Abs Burger, Mexican Pizza, cashews...not bad if I do say so myself. I need to drink more water, but the problem is this - I do know what I want: Work made me want to drink beer. Yes...work drove me crazy today. It made me want to each chocolate, mashed potatoes, and drink beer. These things are not on my "approved" list of foods for the challenge. What to do, what to do...

Here is what keeps me motivated. I have done a 24 Day Challenge that started with this 10 day routine once before. At the end of that 24 days, I had lost 4 inches on my waist. This is significant because my baby weight from number two is not falling off too easily! However, knowing this has been successful in the past, helps me know that this will be successful as well - IF I stick to what I am supposed to do!

How do you stay motivated for these types of challenges?

  1. What program are you doing? I've turned to "mashed" cauliflower whenever I am craving mashed potatoes and actually really like it!

    1. I am using Advocare. The 24 Day Challenge is a program they have - supplements with an excercise video. It begins with a 10 Day Cleanse and that is what I am doing again. I must admit, I was skeptical about it, but I have ended up really liking this stuff!

    1. I would be happy to tell you about it. I am generally totally opposed, but this has really won me over. I have continued using the products since January now.
