Fresh Start? Fresh Diet!

March 26, 2012

This week was rough, it felt  busier than usual and equally exhausting. I had even less time to cook and I can’t seem to figure out why. I seriously need a change. Because I’m trying to do so much:  school, work, cooking, cleaning, dating I don’t find time to really do ALL the things I want to do. I used to find more time to cook, but as my work and personal life get more complicated I find I have less and less time. And I’m really struggling to lose this weight I want so desperately GONE! Especially since I have Vegas coming up for Memorial Day. I went to the doctor recently to get some tests done to see if there are some deeper issues and been reading Jillian Michael’s book, “Master your Metabolism.” I find her book crazy helpful, but at the end of the day I realize I don’t even have the time to prepare all the meals she is suggesting .

 Solution: THE FREST DIET! Tell me this doesn’t sound like something I could benefit from:  

3 meals, 2 snacks delivered daily – includes free delivery-         

  • No cooking, no counting, no clean up.-         
  • Lose 10 pounds this month with The Fresh Diet (average weight loss is 1-3 lbs. per week)-         
  •  Cooked fresh daily in state of the art local kitchens
  •  The easiest way to have fresh, nutritionally balanced meals  for healthy weight loss

#Score. I definitely would rather be counting phone numbers than calories in Vegas (and in life in general). 

Count Phone Numbers, Not Calories!  That is the motto (YOLO!)  I used to see the commercials for things like NutriSystem and such and think, “wow, that is so wasteful” but now I think Three calorie controlled meals and two decadent snacks every day delivered to me sounds like a plan I actually can keep up with. It will will keep my diet in check and help me bring sexy back.  Right now The Fresh Diet is offering a special discount. The offer is:  “Receive 3 days free with the purchase of a 31 day plan at $29.99 per day”. The promo code is: singlmar29. I don’t think that cost is too bad considering that when I eat out (sometimes 2x day ) I  probably spend similar amounts. And the time saved? I believe in paying for convenience these days.  As I’m trying to venture out and explore new (read: healthier) food options, I think this is the perfect jump start if you’re not making the progress you’d like (like me ).

I am DISCOURAGED!  I mean not a whole lot but enough to bruise my ego.

A week into my “Biggest  Winner” competition at work and my training for Sparta I felt like I was doing things right. I was, most importantly, excited for my workouts. They were going good. And I ate pretty damn good all week. Always staying under my calories. But I weighed in today 2 pounds heavier. Instant demotivation.

However, I will not let it get me down. I’m having a lot of fun doing the training. It’s great having an email group where we discuss the daily workouts and modifications and where we struggled with it. That is definitely keeping me motivated. Plus its the excitement of trying new routines. I’d have never done 5 pushups a minute for 22 minutes had it not been for the Workout of the Day. And I wouldn’t have tried to run a mile after doing 100 lunges (it felt like 10000000) lol.

Ok. I am off to the gym now to try todays Workout of the day. #keephopealive
