Day 4

I'm on day 4 of ChaLEAN Extreme. I've modified the schedule a little to better fit my schedule, so I'm really feeling it today. I've also been drinking Shakeology every morning for breakfast (the chocolate is soooooo much better than the greenberry, but I'll still drink the greenberry because I paid for it). I'm really exhausted as I'm not used to my early morning workout just yet, but it should start to get better soon. I've absolutely noticed a change in my weight (mostly due to the scale), but on Sunday my weight was up to 156 and today I'm at 153. That's a big change in just 4 days. I'm sure that it won't continue to go down that quickly, but (and this is still a post for later) I'm currently taking Dr. prescribed Phentermine, so when I'm not taking that it will likely slow down a bit. This is ok as you really should only lose a max of 2 pounds a week if you are being healthy and all that. It can be hard to only see a pound or two of loss a week and a lot of people feel like they need to eat less or workout harder, but that's not the case. You should always make sure that you are eating at least 1200 calories a day. And those should be 1200 healthier calories (as in not 1200 calories of cake and icecream). That keeps your body in a place where it can function the way that it should, but you can still lose weight.
Anyways, I'm loving the results thus far and I already feel stronger and I love when I'm checking my form in the mirror (yes my form, I'm not that vain) and I can see muscle definition. It's a great feeling. And always remember that if you don't want to commit to quite as much time as the ChaLEAN Extreme workouts call for (usually I'm working out at least 45 minutes every workout day), then Jillian is a great way to go. Her 30 minute workouts kick your booty and the fact that I had been doing her workouts has really helped with how much I can do with the Chalean workouts. So I encourage you to start some form of workout as it really is beneficial in so many ways. I also think that you should give Shakeology a shot. The new Tropical flavor is scheduled to be out anytime and I can keep you posted on that. I'm stoked to try it out and will absolutely be getting a bag as soon as it is offered. They will likely offer it to coaches first, so if you are interested in becoming a coach contact me through here and I'll help you get set up or go to the beachbody website and request me as your coach. As a coach you get a discount on all the beachbody products, which is great if you regularly buy shakeology or any of their supplements, it really helps you save quite a bit overall.
