Starting Week 8--on the journey:)

So, I had 6 awesome weeks and then came week 7 and everything suddenly seemed to get really difficult.

I don't know why but I lost my motivation and felt like "why?" I gained some weight back, felt lethargic, unhappy with myself. It was so much harder to go to the gym. And I am just overall disappointed with myself for the past week.

I have stayed great about not eating animal products but cooked food had a little bit of a hold on me. And then I got my period.....I really need to up my fruit calories about three days for my period. I am on a road to healing and know this will take a while and I need to have grace for myself. So after the past rocky week (still MOSTLY fruits and vegetables) I am back on this morning with 100%. I won't let the perfectionist pride hold me back from jumping back on the wagon. I still have a long way to go and I so deeply want to live this lifestyle with "ease" and conviction for the long haul of my life.

So no shame. No beating myself up. Just moving forward another day towards health and happiness:)

And now for some watermelon...
