Monday measurements - week 7

 Hmmm..... one week of NOsugarVEMBER down and it certainly has been a challenge at times - sugar is all around us and in so many of the things we consume on a daily basis without even thinking.  When I've done no sugar in the past it's more just been no lollies, chocolate, ice cream, cakes etc - but this is much more.  It is very interesting and I feel like there is almost no reason to add sugar to many of these everyday foods - it's crazy!  So a much better approach is to eat foods as close to their original form as possible...... ditch the processed (not really sure what's in it) crap and switch to the good delicious fresh stuff and start appreciating what food should REALLY taste like.  Tomato sauce is one of my weaknesses but enjoying my eggs on toast without it makes me appreciated the eggs and really enjoy them rather than overpowering them with the ketchup.

So this weeks check in - I thought things might have moved a little faster given I have quit the chocolate indulgence of the weekend but they haven't shifted all that much in terms of weight (another good reason to not focus solely on weight) I did drop into the 58kg range mind you.... and my measurements are coming down.....plus I fit into a different (smaller) pair of jeans today,yay!......all going in the right direction.  And I feel good too - exercise is pretty much on track, I am training 4-5 days per week which helps me to feel good and my energy levels aren't too bad either :)
