Sorry for forgetting last week and almost forgetting today. I started my period and that led to an ocular migraine that I'm just now recovering from.
Last week I was pretty slack with food, it was my sons birthday and I just needed a break from being so strict. I also didn't run at all but did hit crossfit 4 times. The scale reflected it! It was nice but I'm over it and back to being healthy this week. This week, I ran once and cross fitted m-f. Need to fit some more running, not much of an excuse because Henry can go in the jogging stroller.
How was your week?
Re: Fitness Fridays!
I haven't improved my diet yet though. I need to!
I noticed the same thing when I started a paleo diet challenge about a month pp. It should come back but up your healthy carbs like sweet potatoes and other root veggies, fruits and nuts. I wouldn't give up, just give it a little time to adjust
As far as eating goes, some days are better than others. Lost half a pound last week. Atleast it's not a gain I guess??
I really need to stick to the good eating part! It always seems like I loose my self control during the middle of the night. Last night I had some cookies, the night before I had cereal
I also want to stop weighing myself everyday I become a bit obsessed with the number I see.
I haven't been adjusting my diet, yet. I'll work on portion sizes and less sweets this week. I also want to add a little cardio on my off days.
For now, I'm just happy I made it for three strong crossfit workouts. I'm pushing the boundaries of functionally sore this week.
I run four days a week, I'm in week 4 of 21 of my training plan for the St George marathon. Got 18 miles to do tomorrow - I am drinking double what I used to in training with BFing. Last week I drank 40oz over 16 miles. Thinking I might have to bring my Nathan vest that holds 70oz!
So far no dip in supply which I'm thankful for. I'm still 1-2 lbs up from prepregnancy weight.
So I know I am overweight but I didn't think it was that bad until I saw myself in pictures from father's day. Am I really that fat?? I don't look like that in the mirror. And it wasn't just one picture, it's every picture. I'm out of shape and have even gained a bit recently.
I am getting very very discouraged due to my constant severe exhaustion. Is anyone else tired all the time and how do you deal with it?? I'd give anything to be able to exercise and have energy to prepare decent meals.
And before you say I'm tired because I'm not exercising- while I'm sure that's true, it's not the sole cause. The fix is not as simple as to start moving. I have recently tried going on easy walks and they have made me extremely more tired afterwards, for days.
HELP!! I don't know what to do.
