FBG Challenge - Week 1

Well, I have successfully completed my FIRST week of my Fit Bottomed Girl/Energy Zone Weight Loss Challenge!!



Last week was just an informational meeting. We got to meet all the great girls who are participating in the challenge and get to know each other. I'm really excited to get to know all of the girls and work together to become true FIT BOTTOMED GIRLS!!!

Each week we have a one-on-one with Jessica to talk about what's going on. She tries to customize plans for each girl depending on their specific needs and "issues". Most of us are concentrating on upping are proteins and reducing our sugars & carbs. The goal is to increase our metabolism, then we can slowly add these items back into our diet.

So far, I've actually done pretty good. I did have a "bad day" on Tuesday but most of that was because of poor planning on my part! I was running late and ran out of the house without any snacks! Since Tuesday is Agent Tour day, I had to avoid the cookies at the first tour and ended up eating some pizza at the second. I tried to eat mostly topics, though there weren't many and the pizza was cold and not great. I was very upset because I didn't even enough the calories I put in my body! I went to the gas station afterwards and stocked up on pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds & jerky. Wednesday was much better. I had a seminar where BBQ was provided. I just avoided the bun and stocked up on meat, coleslaw and salad. I did the same at dinner and ordered a meal without and bread. If it's not there, I won't be tempted. I was also good on Thursday night when I got a burger and asked the server NOT to even bring the bun. If there was a bun, I probably would have at least had a few bites!

To subside my chocolate/sugar cravings, I've been eating a sugar-free pudding snack at night. I also try to have cheese, almonds, eggs & lunch meat around to snack on. My body hasn't been the happiest with this change, but it's all part of the detox process and I know I'll be happy with the end result! My measurements have already gone down a little!

Today we had our "cooking class" and learned out to make protein pancakes, quiche & pie. It was all AMAZING! I guess I might have to start cooking a little - but thankfully it can all be made in advanced and frozen!
