As much as I love it here, it is so terribly hard to stay on track with my fitness and nutrition goals. You are constantly on vacation, going to new places with new foods and cuisines, and let's not talk about the delicious wine and beer here. But the thing I love about this program are the short yet effective 30 minute workouts and the easy to follow meal plan with built in portion control. It also builds in room for wine and treats 3 times a week. All things in moderation, right? Before I did this particular plan, I was eating healthy, juicing, eating raw at times to cleanse, etc, but I realized that I was eating way too many carbohydrates. Don't get me wrong, carbs are beautiful thing and tasty too, but you have have them in moderation and in balance with other macronutrients like protein and fats. This plan tells you exactly how many portions of each macronutrient you need in a day for you particular height/weight in order to reach your goal. Super easy and effective in my opinion. I also incorporate my Shakeology into this plan to get lots of superfoods into my diet.
I've decided to dive in full force and really DO this again. I have started and stopped several times since we have arrived, but like I said with constant traveling its so easy to get off track. I am all about balance in life and as much as I want to be healthy and at my optimum weight, I also want to live my life and enjoy what Europe has to offer. So for the next 3 weeks I am going to get back at it and be more disciplined!!!
This isn't the only thing I have been trying to be disciplined with. I have been making it a point to workout, study my German, and do my daily devotions and Bible study. So far, I have been able to make sure that each day, I am investing time into each of these things.
So writing this is my dedication letter to keep me accountable to sticking with the plan!! I will update on recipes, meal ideas, and my stats as I go along with the process!!! Let's get to it!
