The 30 Day Challenge - Week 1

Week 1 was a huge success!  Matt was such a big help, encouraging and motivating me along the way. I woke up to this note on my frying pan the first morning. I love him!

I learned a lot this week about picking the right foods to eat to reach my goals in calories, proteins and carbs.  The hardest part of the week was actually trying to eat enough calories! Who knew that would be so hard! The biggest help has been tracking my daily intake on My Plate. Even though it does take an extra few minutes, tracking helps me feel more confident about my food choices and helps me stay away from bad choices I don't want to post on my plate.

Tomorrow I'll post another chart of meals for the week. P90X has also been excellent! Oddly enough, I love feeling sore and it gives me back so much more energy in my day.
