Peace everyone. Week 2 was definitely an improvement. I was MUCH better with staying vegetarian except on Friday night when I had fish and half a chicken egg roll. It was a special egg roll and I had to try it. But after eating the fish and chicken, I realize it didn’t appease me. I preferred my vegetarian chili which had more flavor and more vitamins
One reason this week went better is because I kept repeating my 2017 resolution to myself: GET IN SHAPE!
This week, I realized I need to respect the journey. After 2 weeks, I was looking for my Yonce body and when I didn’t see it, I realize this I usually the time that I start slacking. But then I reailized, like Rome, Yonce wasn’t built in a day. I must be patient and enjoy the journey and humble myself to the work.
Because of my diet and exercise habit, my energy, ability to focus and mental clarity has been increasing. I have been feeling so positive and I am excited to see what week 3 will feel like.
So here are my goals:
1. Eat vegan -I ate meat Friday when I ate some fish and 1/2 half a chicken egg roll, and a bite of mac & cheese from my friends’ plates at happy hour. It was ok. Not as good as my green smoothie or chilli. I will do better.
2. Work out 5 times a week - I missed a day. Though I did walk a lot on Friday, I did not work out and I also missed working out Wednesday. But I worked out for 3 hours today (Sunday) trying to get those days back. I don’t feel bad though. I blasted at Martial arts Thursday. Those are very hard workouts and I keep getting better
3. Morning Yoga EVERYDAY for 15+ minutes- Again I missed one day, Wednesday. But I got two yoga sessions in today to replace the missed day. Yoga has been so helpful with my flexibility and poster. the one reason my belly shrinked (or looks like it shrank) is because my poster decreases the food baby look. I really enjoy the youtube yogis Yoga by Candance and Boho Beautiful but I NEED some black yogis to represent. Know of any?
4. Morning Meditation, Prayer and Affirmations - I have been saying my own affirmations this week as it was my first week back at work. I just repeat “I choose love over fear” and “Magic is easy my dear, just believe in something and let it happen”. I feel my universe really connecting to my thoughts. Meditation and prayer has helped me really get through this week and stay focused on my goals as I’m building a new mindset.
5. Post once a week- Done and done!
6. Journal EVERY night - I didn’t journal much this week. I been going to sleep to late so from now on, I plan to put myself in my bed at 930pm and start journaling myself to sleep. I’ll let you know.
7. HAVE FUN - One reason I didn’t workout Wednesday is because I was with my homegirl. I had went to happy hour Friday and a party Saturday. Life has been so smooth and I just allow myself to feel happy. Also my developing lifestyle has me feel so sexy. I am enjoying this!
OK! Thank you for reading again. Keep up the great work WARRIORS!
