New Beginnings

Dav 52

Tomorrow marks the beginning of my new strategy. I did all my shopping and meal planning today. I also planned tomorrow's workout as well. I'm good to go.

I'm much more optimistic tonight than I have been all week. There's roughly 4 weeks until our next trip and it will actually span across two weeks. So, I need to work hard between now and then. That week will be a planned "maintain" week.

For now, I've got to bust through this plateau. It's been messing with my head. The important thing is NOT to give up. I know from past experience that this is a tricky time, not just for me, but for a lot of people. It's easy to get that thought in your head of "if I work this hard and have nothing to show for it, what's the point?" Well, the point is it takes time. Hitting this plateau doesn't mean it's not working. It just means I have to switch things up a bit and be mindful.

Here's tomorrow's Meal Plan
Meal 1: Steel Cut Oats topped with a little honey, flaxseed, wheat germ, walnuts and blueberries.
Meal 2: Whey Protein Shake
Meal 3: Tuna in a Pita and carrots
Meal 4: Greek Yogurt and Cottage Cheese
Meal 5: Cajun Shrimp Stir fry
Meal 6: Grapes and String Cheese

Exercise:
Full Body Circuit Training (weights)
Wii Fit

Failure is not an option for me. I'll take the good with the bad and the the plateaus too. It's all part of the journey.

Cheers!
