Sisyphus' Rock

It has been about four months since I started my fitness journey to go from flab to fab, and I am for sure loving my progress. The number on the scale hasn't gone down as drastically as it would for someone with more weight to lose, but my clothes don't lie. The definition on my body is real, and I know I am moving in the right direction.  After finishing T25, I took a week to get out of the monotony of videos and just hopped on the treadmill and used my at home workout weights. Because I wasn't as strict, I decided to move on to Insanity. I am currently on my recovery week between the first and second month.  In regards to my diet, I am still going strong with Keto. Although, I have been a little crazy lately. My husband and I drank a whole bottle of FitWine a couple weeks ago, and then I had a few glasses Sauvignon Blanc the next day. Then I went out for lunch the following weekend, for the first time since starting Keto and had California Pizza Kitchen's cauliflower ...

So, it has been a few weeks since I checked in with my T25 progress and Ketogenic Diet updates. I'm happy to report I AM STILL on track to finish T25 this week, as I also celebrate my one-month-anniversary on the Keto Diet!! Week 1 & 2 of the Keto Diet, my energy was down. I was so tired. I could not successfully keep up with just T25. Where I was adding treadmill or weight time after T25 some days pre-Keto, I just did NOT have the stamina to do it. I honestly thought I was burned out and wouldn't be able to finish T25. The 3rd week though, it was like a new burst of energy came over me. I was killing these workouts!! I did slack a tiny bit on T25. July 4th week, my 3rd week on Keto, I skipped my T25 for the 4th and the following day- you know, just spending time with my family instead. And because Fridays are my double T25 days, I didn't add those workouts back in. Week 4 on Keto (the following week, which is also this past week) I felt I had even more energy! I...
