This week was actually not too bad. As far as the exercise went i am beginning to find the workouts quite enjoyable and am able to complete most of them with the exception of the yoga which i am still struggling with. I also find myself craving the exercise and wanting to do more. I added some cardio in the form of running walking on a few of the muscle strength days.  I have to remind myself to not overdo it. Next week is the all cardio week and I am kinda dreading that but its just seven days and I can push through. I did not have the big change over this week like i have seen in weeks past but i was fully expecting a slowdown so I am reminding myself to stay positive. 
As far as diet is concerned i did really well this week with the exception of one day where i admittedly cheated pretty badly with some pizza and other bad foods. I don't think that it affected my performance too badly since i added the extra cardio but i am going to try to remain focused going forward. I know cheat days will happen but i will strive to minimize them. I actually tried a diet soda with the pizza and found it incredibly sweet. so water with lemon is my drink of choice easily now. Another problem i am having is making sure i do eat. I went one day and realized i had no solid food until that evening. I had had a couple of protein shakes but nothing substantial so i had to make a note to remember to eat LOL. Also i am having trouble with snacking. I have celery and raw carrots on hand but i seem to always be craving in the evenings. I believe it is boredom eating so i need to find some way to combat that. I remind myself that its still only 21 days into it and I still have a long road ahead.
