Weight Loss Video Diary – Week 6: Struggle


[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_fGUViZbVE[/youtube]

It’s week 6 and it was a struggle! The week started off good on Monday, but after that it was hard for me to find motivation to exercise. I managed to fight through the mental barrier that I always face. I don’t know if it’s burnout or what, but I managed to fight through it.

Through out all of it I managed to eat my Nutrisystem foods and my fruits & vegetables, so that wasn’t a problem. Eating has actually been the easy part lately. Having the pre-made food is really a life saver since I don’t have to think about preparing anything. It’s already done. Even when faced with a pizza party I managed to just say no to the temptation. My issue this week was more of a mental, get-up-and-go-to-the-gym type of struggle. I knew I would have weeks like this, but man does it feel good to say that I persevered!

I know I can fight through it now, the key is to FIGHT THROUGH IT!

Thanks for watching!

    I’ve just started on my fat loss journey again, after yo-yo dieting over the past two years. The hardest thing for me is the cardio exercise and the reduction in calories.

    I love weight training, but cardio exercise bores me to death. That’s why I keep my cardio exercise down to 30 minutes each session. I’m two weeks into my diet and I am staying focused.

    I’m currently on a 2000 calorie a day diet, 4 weight training workouts and 5 cardio workouts every week. What does your diet and exercise program consist of.

    Struggles like that help define you and give you a new vantage point for what you’ll face in the future. Hang in there Israel!
