Week 6 Summary

Ahh, so this week was such an interesting week. I didn’t know if I would lose any weight because once again I was unable to exercise—which was sooo frustrating. My toe has simply not healed, but after going to the doctor I’ve decided to just go ahead and start running again. Because after the success of this week (yes, this week was a success!!), I want to keep it going in order to reach my goal of losing 20 whole pounds by the start of college.

So speaking of college, let’s talk about my healthy habits that I’ve developed compared to my habits in school. It’s literally SHOCKING to me that I never was able to pinpoint what was wrong with my diet. In college I had fried food, soda, juice, desert almost all the time. It was insane.

This past month, I’m glad I’ve taken steps to slowly get rid of those from my diet. While I still casually have these things, they are causal treats—not conscious parts of my diet. But I’m super nervous of reverting back to those bad habits when I go back to college. So to combat that, I’m not getting a meal plan. I’ve realized this is the best decision I could take because by not getting a meal plan, I’ll have extra money to use for groceries.

And the awesome part of that is that I’m in complete control, so there’s no one to blame. This is a really long process and after reaching the 20 lbs.

So yeah, next week: def more running!
