 Welcome back to my channel and welcome if you are new here. It is Friday So that means that it is a WW workshop day and way in day It is bright and early will not bright but dark and early at 6 25 a.m And I just pulled in but I wanted to share a little recap of my week with you guys before I head in to my workshop So first if you haven't already seen my changes video where I announced some major changes that I'm making on my Weightloss journey, I am going to link that down in the description box below for you guys Highly recommend that you watch that because my content moving forward is all going to be relating to that So it will make a little bit more sense for you And it's a great video with lots of great tips And I'm letting you know the changes that I'm making on my weightloss journey So make sure that you check that out and with that being said I posted that video yesterday Thursday But I actually started my new eating approach as of Sunday of this last week I didn't jump in a hundred percent because I am trying to use up the food that I have on hand I don't want to waste a lot of food, but I did take all of my processed snacks So those little mini rice cake bags that I bought at Costco all my Chips and I can't there's a bunch of stuff in there Oh my quest bars and all of those I took them all to my office through them on the counter and Literally yesterday when I went in they were gone and I brought them in on Monday So people are loving the snacks, but that way those processed foods are out of my house Not something I'm going to eat moving forward So I got rid of those and I went and did a lot of shopping this week at several stores and got my house All clean eating organic good whole ingredient food nothing processed And then I'm slowly but surely going through the rest of my sugar-free and my fat-free Food that I have on hand because again, I don't want to waste it So I've been doing that a little bit this week, but I am loving this new way of eating. I love it I love it. I love it. I feel so much better. I have more energy during the day I have more energy at my workout and my week went great. I wasn't hungry I was not hungry like I was when I ate processed food My life you guys has changed by making these this move and I thought long and hard about it Did a lot of research on the internet watched a lot of YouTube videos of clean eating to see if that was something That was actually sustainable to me because you guys know that sustainability on whatever plan you're on is so Important if it's not something you can do for the rest of your life It's not even worth starting because you're just going to gain your weight back when you stop Following that particular way of eating so I know this is something that I can stick with because I am allowing myself Some sugar-free items just not every day not several times a day and I'm absolutely eliminating fat-free That's just no longer an option as soon as the fat-free cheese that I have is gone Which I think I have less than one bag then I'm done with fat-free anything fat-free cheese cream cheese Yeah, name it. I'm done with it I actually went ahead and tossed my fat-free half-and-half because I got some really good creamy organic half-and-half Wait till you guys see my grocery haul wait till you guys see it tomorrow So my week was great just transitioning into this new way of eating and I hit up Jazzercise four days this last week So I was excited about that in fact I'm heading to Jazzercise right after my workshop this morning like I mentioned last week I'm loving the Friday workout after the workshop. It's great So before I ramble on because you guys know I never do that. I'm not big on the rambling I'm gonna head into my workshop stay for the meeting way in and I'll be back to share Topic as well as my weigh-in results for my first almost full week of clean eating Welcome back. I am out of my WW workshop. It was such a great topic as usual We talked about goals whether it's setting a big goal or a small goal and we talked about what is called the star Approach to setting goals. So when we set goals, we generally think big picture I know for me as you know when I did my 2020 goals video. I was definitely thinking big picture I'm like, what are my goals for the entire year of 2020 and that's great to think big picture for goals But it's also important to then break those goals into smaller goals That way you have something to look forward to throughout the time period It's something that you can shoot for on a weekly or monthly basis So I thought that that was a great approach to take and also focusing on the positive of Reaching that goal even when we're not reaching a goal still focusing on the positive of setting that goal and Striving to reach that goal. So I want to share with you exactly what this star theory is from WW So the S stands for specific. This is really important plan a Specific goal get very detail oriented in Pacific specific on exactly what you're wanting when it comes to that goal So for example for me my goal was to do Jazzercise three days a week You guys know this again from that 2020 goals video So to be specific on that I had to select what three days a week I wanted to do Jazzercise so I decided what those three days were if I was gonna be attending Jazzercise With anybody and then sticking to the three days that I plan and then any extra days are bonuses But you have to be specific So not just I'm gonna go to Jazzercise three days a week or I'm gonna try to work out or run or walk or go to the gym Three to four times a week be a little bit more specific And maybe the days that you're going to go and allow yourself of course a little bit of wiggle room Because life happens and we can't always get to the gym on the day that we think or want to go to the gym So the T stands for truly doable and I think again this kind of goes back to being specific Don't set a goal that you truly cannot do so for me if I said my goal is to go to Jazzercise six days a week I know that chances of that actually happening are not likely. I'm busy with real estate I'm extremely busy with YouTube. I have a husband and a life and Parents and friends and I know that six days a week just isn't doable for me So when I say that I'm going to set a goal of three days a week that is doable to me Anything above and beyond that is great. It's extra credit. It's bonus points But setting a goal that is doable is so important Nothing gets us more discouraged Then setting a goal and within the first day week month not reaching that goal because it just wasn't truly doable for us A is for active and I really really like How they brought active into the picture here So instead of focusing on the camps and the negatives focus on the positive instead of saying I am not gonna skip my workout Focus on something being positive. I am going to go to Jazzercise three days a week versus I'm not I'm not gonna skip my workout anymore First that's not specific That's not necessarily doable because there are gonna be times that you are going to have to skip your workout So take that negative and apply it to something positive Set a goal that is specific doable and Something that you can actually achieve and feel good about and the R stands for relevant So your goal should be something that you want to do not something that you have to do or that you're forced to do Or that you think you should do so if going to the gym is not something that you want to do You're not going to do it for one It's not going to be achievable doable sustainable It's got to be something that you want to do and I'm gonna go back to when I talked about working out prior to discovering Jazzercise I walked around my neighborhood. I am not a gym person. I have no desire to go to a gym So I knew that if I spent money to join a gym It would be totally wasted because it's not something that I want to do I want to walk where I live, but my web her in the winter not gonna happen So I had to find something that I enjoy and that I want to do and that keeps me going back and for me Like I've mentioned that's Jazzercise. I love it. I look forward to my classes. I never I very okay I don't want to say never but I very rarely have to drag myself there It's something that I actually look forward to like I'm excited in the next 20 minutes to go to my Jazzercise class So find something that you want to do and focus on that It's going to be something that you're going to stick with and is sustainable and will help you reach your goals So in a nutshell set a weekly goal and then use that star method to help you achieve that goal and don't Beat yourself up if you don't reach every goal that you set if I don't make it to Jazzercise three times one week I'm not going to beat myself up over that that is my goal That is what I want to do, but I also know that life happens and I'm giving myself a little bit of grace if need be What if I'm sick or I'm just not available to go three days a week? I don't want to beat myself up over that because I'm not going to one remain positive and two want to continue with my Goal, so I love it I think the star approach is something we can remember so anytime that we're planning a goal Whether it be a long-term goal or a short-term goal, we can use the star approach to do just all right My friends what a great workshop topic once again WW so as I mentioned before I went in you guys know that I've switched my Eating habits or eating style to a more organic clean food whole food diet I've eliminated 95% of processed foods I've eliminated fat free 100% and I have changed sugar free to Maybe an 80% versus a hundred percent and I am limiting myself to good for you sugar alternatives the monk fruits of the world The stevia's of the world the urethra tall Those are some of the best choices that you can choose for a sugar alternative because they don't spike your blood sugar or Affect your glycemic index so you guys know that's what I'm shooting for I did actually start this on Sunday of This last week and slowly have been transitioning this week I'm again still getting rid of a lot of those foods in my house So I'm not a hundred percent, but I would say that I was 75% this last week into my new eating style And as I mentioned I feel better. I'm my workouts are better I feel leaner and happier and healthier and Lighter because when I stepped on the scale you guys I lost Wait for it Three point four this week three point four pounds That is the most that I have lost and I don't know how long and I can only Attribute that to the fact that I changed the foods that I'm eating so I made such a fantastic decision for myself By going down the clean eating organic whole food route because three point four is Amazing and if I can do half of that on a weekly basis I am gonna reach my goal of 50 pounds lost no questions asked this year So I'm really excited to lose three point four pounds I feel better like I said I just feel leaner and stronger and healthier And I'm sure that has to do with not only the foods that I'm eating but also going to jazz or size and getting in a consistent workout So yay, that is a fan a tastic news. I honestly was not expecting that I was not expecting that big of a loss So I'm very curious to see what happens next week because I'll be a little bit more into my clean eating because a lot of these Fat-free types of foods will be gone out of my house by the time I start this next week because you guys know I use my weeklies on Saturday. I've actually gotten that question a couple times. Am I still going to use my weeklies? Yes, I'm still going to have my treat day on Saturday where I go out to breakfast lunch or dinner with my husband It's a no tracking day for me I am however going to be making better choices for the other meals that I consume on my treat day and And still being able to splurge and indulge in that one meal a day And I don't think that's going to affect my problem Excuse me my progress, but we will find out when I step on the scale next week. So That's my plan. I'm so excited again If you guys have not seen my video where I talk about the changes Highly recommend that you click the link down in the description box and watch that video Because a lot of your questions will probably be answered and speaking of that video I also want to say thank you for all of the love and support that you guys have sent me from my video I have had to only delete and block two comments, which is not bad Considering that was a little bit less than I was expecting to receive on that video And as you know, there's just negative unhappy people in the world that become keyboard warriors and like to say things on the internet But they may not say in real life to you, but I just block remove and delete So I am so thankful for you guys and your support and your love And a lot of you have decided that maybe switching back to blue is for you Or maybe looking at this clean eating whole food approach might be a good alternative for you guys And I'm here to help you you're going to see some really fantastic recipes I have some really delicious fun recipe series that are based around this eating Style coming out.
