Today is Day 26 of my Precision Nutrition Body Transformation Challenge & Day 139 of my Civilian Fitness Program. This week has really been an off week for me in regards to my nutrition choices & I have only logged in 2.6 hours of exercise so far and the week is almost done!

I guess that’s why I haven’t been updating much on my progress because there hasn’t really been significant progress in the past 2 months. I’m thinking that maybe I’m stressing too much, learning a lot about nutrition & exercise & then I’m just to drained or whatever to put it into practice 100% of the time. So basically… I have not been practicing what I preach.

Yesterday was the 1st time in a VERY long time that I ate like a pig. I literally stuffed my face with all kinds of foods & I knew that what I was doing was not right, but I kept on doing it anyway. Why? I don’t know… and that’s the scary part. I can’t believe that this was my typical way of eating a couple of months ago. I felt horrible and I still feel horrible today. I guess my body is not used to eating all that fat & processed foods anymore.

Today I’ve been reading over my progress pics & stats and a couple of very inspiring blogs of people that HAVE reached their goals ( Skwigg, Maggie, Magda, Lisa and others…) and they have helped a lot. I guess this is just one of those BLAH days and I had to let it out before I exploded and ate some more.

Yes, my name is Vilma & i’m an emotional eater… (recovering one)

I have 1 more month left until my Civilian Fitness Program is done and 3 more months until my Precision Nutrition Challenge is completed. I’ve also been contacted nutrition website inviting me to do a weight loss success interview for her website… what an honor!! I need to get ready for that as well.

What am I going to do differently that will kick start my fat loss once again and get me below 180 lbs in 1 month?

• Log in ATLEAST 5 hours of exercise for the next 4 weeks
• Don’t really stress about calories & ratios for the next 4 weeks
• Focus more on building healthy habits (Precision Nutrition)

So… my goals for my final Civilian Fitness Program weigh in day (approx. 1 month from now) are:

• lose 10 lbs of fat
• be below 180 lbs
• be at or below 32% body fat
• fit comfortably into my size 12 jeans

That’s it. Nice & simple. I will still be following PN principles. After this goal is met, I plan to treat myself to something nice (maybe some clothes — no food this time around) and come up with a new mini-month challenge for the month of September-October.

Wow… I feel so much better now that I’ve let all this out. All comments, suggestions, support & virtual “kick my butt” speeches are welcome!

Thanks for reading.
