It's been just over a week of mostly clean eating, drinking 2 litres of water everyday plus quite a bit of green tea.
So the big question arises...Am I thin yet?
Well I definitely feel like I should be healthy & thin already, but I most definitely am not...in fact, I think my clothes feel tighter this week 😭
How is this possible? The last 3 days I have really struggled with water intake, so maybe it's that? I don't know, and it's really easy to get demotivated so early in the game....but I shall persevere.
I have also been struggling with the intake of protein...it's just too much when I am on Paleo 100%. Tuesday saw me having lamb mince with salad for breakfast, chicken & veg for lunch and salmon & veg for dinner. It was all feeling way too much too early in the week.
So I thought that cm loss dependent, I will introduce legumes & lentils into my eating plan to help get the protein in without having meat. I had some legumes on Monday and I feel my body has been puffy since...so maybe this source of protein will have to wait until later.
So below are some of the meals I ate over the past week. I must admit that I am really terrible at remembering to take pics before I stuff my face. I have been really rushed off my feet this last week so I kept everything simple...
Cold pressed juice & almonds (easy to get down for breakfast & filling) |
Veg juice |
Fried egg (forgot to snap a pic of the added avo) |
I'm sure you're doing great! Your body just needs some time to adjust to the healthier eating. This is going to be such a struggle for me when this baby is born. But I can't wait to start working out again. Good luck Sam!
