#Mamavation Monday- Back in the Swing and Feeling Great!!

Well this last week has been awesome I have to say!

First, I started the #2weekchallenge with the rest of the Mamavation Crew and am just loving the feeling that working out gives you. I haven’t been doing the actual 2 week challenge workouts this past week, because I wanted to get myself at least somewhat worked up to it by getting on the treadmill each day. I was able to do between 2-3 miles each day with most days doing 3 miles. After not doing this for awhile now, it was a little tough, but felt so good!!

I also started Nutrisystem on Wednesday/Thursday. This has really helped me refocus and see what I should be putting in to my body portion wise, calorie wise and food wise. I am eating tons more veggies, which I rarely eat so that has been an adjustment. I had one cheat lunch, but kept it to a minimum cheat. I have to say though that I am still seriously craving sweets right now, even though we do get some on the plan. It just hasn’t satisfied that certain craving I have been having. I guess it is taking my body a bit to adjust to this new diet.

I am so happy that hubby is joining me in all of this. He is also on Nutrisystem and has been doing great at coming home after work and walking almost every day! He is doing great! I will be updating more in a day or two of our progress this first week of being on the Nutrisystem plan.

I can’t wait to take on week 2 of the 2 week challenge. I am going to continue the walking as well as add in some of the other exercises. I just didn’t want to strain my neck and back too much since my pain has already been high for awhile now.

Oh and we won the bid on a house we wanted and are in the process of the waiting time for closing. It is a huge, nice house that we will be able to stay in for years!! I am so excited. Now just praying that everything goes smoothly with the rest of the paperwork.
