Week 5

Week 5:

Blllahhh week 5! Week 5 is very uneventful. I was sick with the most annoying head cold in history.  I didn't get to the gym a single time last week. I spent my time laying on the couch and pretending to be productive at work. Major boooo!! I have still been taking my OEP though and I've lost a total of 7 lbs so far. I was having a rough time with the OEP last week but I think I've figured out why it was making me feel crappy. The OEP is designed to burn calories like crazy. It does decrease your appetite like no one's business so it is important to remind yourself to eat. I wasn't eating and I was getting so extremely tired I could have fallen asleep at the drop of a hat. My body was exhausted from working overtime burning calories without any fuel. So I went to the grocery store and loaded up on apples, peanut butter, string cheese, and tons of other quick little healthy snacks I can eat throughout the day. I've been reading up a lot on clean eating and I want to start trying to make cleaner meals. I've never been big into making my own pasta sauce and what not, but it can't be that hard.  I'm still waiting for my sample of Shakeology so I'll let you know how that goes once I get it. 

Overall week 5 was boring and not much happened, but I still took my accountability photo to share with you all (you're welcome. hah!)

  1. You already look great in the week 5 photo. It's okay to rest for a while because that's part of working out. More importantly, don't skip meals. Remember, you are working out because you are aiming for a fit and healthy body. Don't sacrifice food no matter what. Just know what food you're supposed to eat. Good luck!
