OK, update. I have not lost a pound this week. I'm not alone, there are other gals in the Ultimate Oxygen Challenge reporting the same results. I am down .6% in body fat and up .5% in lean muscle mass, according to my scale.
I'm not going to freak out. I see my body changing and my clothes fit differently. Better than that, I am feeling super good! So, yes there are just ten weeks left, but no I'm not worried. In fact, I think I just upped my game! My husband bought the FitBit Charge HR for my birthday!!! I'm super excited, because just one day of using it, I can identify where some things needed to be changed. Probably for quite a while now! Oh man, I am so excited to see how things go now. I think it is going to be great!

Hitting upper body today! Feels food to get back in the gym on my lunch hour! I need to use the machine for lat pull down, son I switched up some days. I am so glad the Ultimate Oxygen Challenge is flexible and I can make it work with my needs!
Yikes! I looked at the calendar today and realized I have only three weeks until the Spartan Super. Just. Three Weeks. I feel confident I will be fine. However, I really want to give mental attention to finishing in the heat. I think that is going to be my biggest challenging variable for this race. After the Super, no more. I find myself asking, why didn't I go for the trifecta....hmmmm....??? I received confirmation tonight that my photos were accepted. For some reason it is creating a much stronger sense of urgency. Like, I really need to kick things into high gear. As I said yesterday, I am going to tweak a few things and implement this next week. Hopefully I will see more change for my next check-in.
This is an awesome time. I am grateful for my husband who supports me and my daughters who are excited to see the what their momma can accomplish. I am loving that I am making some other connections and their are a few people in my life showing support. So much to do, so excited to do it! After week one, I am down nearly a pound. I also lost just over a half inch from my waist. I ate healthy and did my workouts. But, I know I can change things up to better align with how I know my body responds to certain foods. I am glad this challenge is designed to be flexible and fit unique needs. So my goal is to see closer to two pounds lost next week. We'll see how it goes!
