Janelle week 5 Update

Week five has by far been my hardest week.  I was only able to do 3 1/2 of the 6 workouts this week.  I have been sick pretty much this whole week.  Between cramps blah and a bad cold (maybe sinus infection)  that has to this day left me with a horrible cough, lots of sniffles, sinus issues and exhaustion not much working out was accomplished.  To see almost a whole week I feel go to waste was VERY discouraging! These last few weeks it has been so awesome to see all that I have accomplished in just 7 days! I really let my discouragement of being sick and not being able to work out bleed into my diet and I have to confess that I was not 100% this week. Eating things I have really tried to cut out and drinking way more Diet Dr Pepper than anyone should ever drink! :S  But after expressing my discouragement to  Elise yesterday she helped me realized that life happens! I loved Allies week five update.  READ IT if you haven't!!!  She really addresses how important it is to not let a bad day or bad week get us completely off the healthy wagon.  We get to hop back on and keep moving forward learning from our mistakes.  And this is only a week in my new healthy life style.:)

 I did however this week have quite a big victory, I  some how managed to reach the goal I'd set to be in ONEDERLAND meaning out of the 200's!!!! I have no idea how with such a bad week I still lost 2 lbs but I did!!!  I am stoked to be out of the 200's it was such a difficult thing for me when I saw I had passed 200 lbs, and I feel such victory getting out of there!!!!  So grateful for the changes I am making!  Grateful  for the workouts that are making me not only stronger physically but also emotionally! And most of all so grateful for the support of those on this journey with me and also the 3fit sisters!!  I look forward every week to all the supportive updates by everyone who is taking on the challenges I am! I find myself on the 3fat2fitsisters blog more than I am on Facebook or anything else!  I love the recipe ideas and seeing new stories of people taking back their lives everyday!! It is all so inspiring!   I am so excited and so committed to making my goals a reality and gaining my confidence back!!  Nothing will stop me, I may stumble along the way but I will get right back up and move forward I will NEVER go backwards again EVER!!!!! Light and LOVE - Janelle
