Okay so totally dropped the ball on week four’s post. Good thing blogging isn’t my day job! I figure since this week is my last week of the challenge I will hold off on the progress photos (suspense!!!!).
I promise I am not getting lazy. This week I am celebrating my roommate’s birthday and, it’s also my coach’s birthday so, obviously, I had quite a bit of baking to do this past weekend 🙂
For my roommate, a custom oreo/heath bar cheesecake. For my coach, oatmeal raisin cookies with walnuts and chocolate chips. I must be honest, there is nothing healthy about these baked goods, BUT it’s always good to splurge once in a while 😉
Since these recipes are not healthy, I will not be sharing the recipes; however, if you have not had your daily dose of foodporn yet, they are pictured above.
Back to week four– I have to say there are those days when I just really don’t feel like jumping rope for 15 min straight. We’re all human, we get tired/sore, but quitting is not how you get results. Unless I am in serious physical pain (i.e. injury, safety in jeopardy) or it is a required recovery day (1-2 days a week), I am going to push through. Believe me, the struggle is real, but once it’s over I will feel even more empowered, strong, accomplished, badass, etc.
STATS:
Weight: 133lbs
Chest: 36″
Waist: 27″
Lower Waist: 31.5″
Hips: 38″
FOOD:
Most of my meals consisted of lean protein and vegetables, some eggs, protein and/or casein shakes. I made some yummy vegan, gluten-free peanut butter cookies (see previous post) and shared them with some friends. I got some really good feedback. I’m going to make some tweaks to the recipe when I get back from Vegas next week so, stay tuned!
So begins week five. I cannot believe how fast time has gone by. This week is the last week of my challenge. Make it count.
