I haven't felt great in over a month. I usually have amazing energy and a zest for life but the last month has been a real struggle both physically and mentally. I know I have pushed my body with this marathon training but I can tell that there is something else going on. How do I know? Because I am starting to really listen to my body's warning signs.
This is why I have decided to do the Beachbody Reset again. I loved how I felt the first round :) so I guess I am longing for that feeling again. I did lose 15 pounds round one but round one wasn't about how much weight can I drop it was about taking time off of working out. See I am addicted to working out.. NOT food. It felt amazing taking 21 days off of training!!!
So what did I learn round one??
I learned that my body doesn't process caffeine..both soda and green tea gives me instant headaches. I also learned that I don't get a lot of veggies in. During the reset realized that I was really tired..LIKE really tired. Before the reset I was training for the Goofy; so I felt that my tiredness came from that. However, on day 30 I was still exhausted. This is when I found out I had a thyroid issue.. I can thank the Reset for finding that out.
Round one was about taking some time off working out not about the food. So on day 22, I basically went back to my old eating habits. I had a huge dessert, wine and meat all on day 22. So I never knew exactly if my body was having reactions to the items I removed from my diet on those 21 days.
Why Round 2?
I am tired, emotional and just in need of a whole body reset. I been waking up with muscle pains every single night which I feel isn't normal. My fingers ache and I just feel bloated...so round two is about taking time off training again but it is more about finding out which foods don't work for me. So on day 22, I plan on slowly adding in foods not all at once like first round.
I plan on documenting the whole process. I plan on going to the doctor, vlogging and recording everything. I think this process is something everyone should do! It makes you feel like a different person and everything in life seems clearer!
