Carbs, Eating, Portions...Oh My!

Happy Wednesday!!!
I have been a BUSY, BUSY bee getting our challenge group together for July!!!
We have been having the BEST time getting our group set up and are truly enjoying
this new journey together.
We had a pretty exciting day/evening yesterday. We were recognized on our team
call as the "power couple". LOL
It felt good because we are both passionate go-getters and when we do something
we do it 110%, so it was nice that it was recognized so early on. We also
make a really good team together because we really balance each other so well and have
so much fun and energy together.
(BTW, if you want in on one of our groups, PLEASE message me! We would LOVE to have you!)
Hey, I think we are so much fun, but I may be a little bias. ;)
I am in the second week of my new workout that I started and I can't EVEN.
This woman is pushing me completely out of my comfort zone.
So the real deal on me....
When I did Beachbody years ago I honestly did NOT follow the nutrition plan
that was recommended for the program I did. 😲
Why would I NEED that? I can't be bothered with that. I've never "dieted" a day in my life.
(ok, this was all crap I was saying internally in my head you guys!)
Fast forward 5 years later.  Clothes start fitting differently, (and I will just say, my clothes tell me
EVERYTHING I need to know, LOL - so eff you scale),
weight is proportioned "differently" 😉, etc
So with the wedding coming I wanted to really DIAL in on my nutrition and fitness
to be in the BEST shape I can possibly be in and ROCK that dress like nobody's business.
I decided to go 100% on my program I am doing and truly, honestly do the meal plan that
goes along with it.
Holy CRAP! To say it puts your eating into perspective would be an UNDERSTATEMENT!
Guys.....I was a CARB addict!! WTH?!
I literally NEVER realized how many I ate in a day until I started this program.
It makes you really think about what you are going to eat, so you aren't just
throwing crap down your throat.
BUUUUUTTTTT, I am NOT starving! LOL (contrary to what my carb neglected body thinks)
I feel GREAT. My clothes are ALREADY feeling different.
It's not about starving yourself. It's about eating better, cleaner.
So I'm super PROUD of myself because this is BIG for me. LOL
I will emphasize this.....
I am NOT trying to lose a bunch of weight, so before I get the hate mail, (which if you didn't see my story today on FB or Instagram, check it out)
I am toning and getting stuff back where it needs to be.😂
Plus I feel like a freaking million BUCKS when I am on my A game nutrition and fitness wise.
I say it all the time. Do NOT judge anyone on where they are in their life.
Whether that be a weight loss journey, a healthier lifestyle journey, a more positive outlook journey, hell if they want to sew facemasks for Covid.....
LET THEM BE!!!
You don't know what feeds people's soul. You don't know what their story is.
You worry about YOU.
I will definitely be checking back and keeping you posted on how this new LESS carb me is doing.
Keep my family in your thoughts!!! 😂😂
