Slow & Steady | Weight Loss Week in Review 6/13/22-6/20/22

Welcome to the blog! Today I am sharing an update and a quick weekend recap.

This weekend has been a slight whirlwind of internal emotions, but it has been a great weekend. I am very happy with my food intake this week. I did well and stayed on track.

Saturday was my weigh in and I was not happy with the results. I lost nothing and gained 0.1 pounds. I was pretty annoyed but I also know weight does not change overnight. I ended up having a deep conversation with my husband about why I even want to lose more weight and he challenged me to really think about what my goals are because I keep changing them. I wasn’t really able to answer what my goals are currently so this is something I will be reflecting on this week. More on that to come. I need to do some deep reflection.

I picked up this beautiful bouquet of peonies at my local grocery store. They are my favorite flower 💐 They really brightened up my kitchen and smell amazing. If I could have fresh peonies in my home all the time I would. I love them ❤

After grocery shopping I washed and prepped all the food. I find this really makes meals and snacks easier throughout the week. Everything is ready to be used. Plus it makes it easier for me to grab more fresh healthy options. I had a girlfriend over so we got a pizza to eat for dinner.

My grocery store had nectarines on sale so I grabbed a bag. I have never had one! They are delicious. I really enjoy having fresh fruits available in my home.

I have been craving iced coffee so I made a batch of iced coffee and even enjoyed my brown sugar iced coffee. I’ll share links to how I make my coffee.

The best part of my weekend was taking a yoga class. Years ago I use to do yoga routinely in a studio and I loved it but I stopped and never got back into the practice as faithfully as I was back then. For a while now I have been wanting to get started again but have kept putting it off. I finally decided to stop making excuses. I picked a studio I was interested in and booked a class. I am so happy I did!! It was an amazing class! I felt like a new person. It was inspiring, motivating and I loved the vibes. I felt like it awakened something in me that I had lost. The instructor had her dog there and he was so sweet. I have no idea if the dog is a boy or girl or even the name. The dog has one eye missing and its tongue hangs out but he was so welcoming and sweet. He slept in a bed next to the instructor the whole time. I look forward to going back and building my practice.

Sunday afternoon my husband I went to Ritas and I tried the peanut butter blast concrete. So delicious 😋 not in my points but I did not care.

With the new week ahead I plan on doing some reflection and goal making. I need to decide what I really want out of this journey and not focus on just numbers.

Thanks for reading!

  2. I hope you’re weigh in didn’t get you down for long. I tell my PT clients all the time to try to weigh yourself and forget about it. Focus on the end goal instead of the day to day – if you can.https://thelifestylebloggeruk.com
