I have now been on the 45 day Challenge for 21 days and am almost half way through. It has definitely been a commitment. I have figured out the best way for me to handle social gatherings is to eat before an event and always have water on hand. This way, I'm not hungry or tempted to eat foods outside the program.
It's been 14 days and I have stayed on the program 100%. For the first time since I have started my challenge, I do feel hungry occasionally. My saving grace has been water. I am right on track for the amount of weight I have lost.
At first, my attitude was to finish the challenge doing exactly what was asked of me. Now, I'm so impressed with how much more I can do during my workouts and how strong I feel, I want to continue to embrace these workouts as part of my life.
