I haven’t felt the motivation to workout at all this week.
I think this week I just really wanted to take a break from working out because ever since it became May I’ve definitely started slacking. I’m not as strict with myself because I wasn’t doing my Abs for April challenge.
Instead of beating myself up, I’m going to write out the things that I DID do that is contributing to my progress this week:
- I rested on Monday, and I worked out on Tuesday (Yoga, Resistance bands, and kickboxing)
- I did my resistance bands workout + floor workouts in the afternoon today and did kickboxing rounds in the evening
- I’m drinking water
- I’m eating 80/20 clean foods
- I’m drinking my protein and taking my vitamins
- I went out for a walk both Monday and Tuesday
- I limited my alcohol consumption to only 2 glasses of wine on Saturday night
- Even though I ate after 7 PM, it was always something light (berries/protein shake/sweet potato bits)
- I didn’t eat any “processed” snacks today
I think I just got so caught up with being super strict with my diet and my schedule in April – even just eating after 7 PM and eating my favorite snacks and drinking wine got me in this weird headspace that all of a sudden all of my progress is gone.
That’s just simply not true. I’m still doing great things to improve my health and wellness even though I don’t restrict what I love anymore. I’m consuming them in moderation – but because I was so keen during April, all of a sudden it feels like I’m eating like crap.
I’m doing great. I am doing wonderful things for my health both mentally and physically. 🙂
