Back To Green I Go...

I'm no HULK and it would be really cool if I was referring to Green Apples or Green M&M's...maybe even Green Pears? But no... I am back on my Green Faces Diet: Phase I. This means the only foods I am and will be consuming for the next couple weeks are green vegetables and only foods that have a face (hello protein!). If you've been keeping up with my blogs, I did this same diet about 6 weeks ago and saw some amazing results, dropping 5lbs and 5% body fat! 


This time it is a little bit easier and my mood swings aren't devilish like before. (hehe) I am hungry all of the time as usual. I can out eat my dad with any steak dinner and I drink more water than your four legged best friend. Good news: I cut out coffee completely! YAY! That was hard. The smell of it is still intoxicating. At least I wasn't super addicted--otherwise those caffeine headaches would be killing me right now. After July 23rd, a Coffee Break will be in full effect. 


My workouts are still intense and I've been feeling the after-math once I reach the end of the day. I pass out as soon as my head hits the pillow. I wake up every morning at 5am, well more so my bladder wakes me up. That's what happens when you drink 2 gallons of water a day. Despite my crazy hormonal roller-coaster ride, I've dropped down to 129.7lbs. I've noticed the difference in how my body feels when I am eating carbs and when I'm not. My weight constantly fluctuates depending on TOM (Time of the Month, if you didn't know) and how much water I've drank that day. Let me tell you that my body has a mind of it's own. 


This week I have not been successful with my two-a-day workouts, but I plan to pick that back up next week while I house sit. My coworker has an awesome gym in her condo where I can do my cardio intervals in the morning before work. Her place is my sacred thinking temple because the city view from her condo is absolutely amazing. Perhaps I'll post a blog from the view next week and share a photo. :)


The bikini competition is in t-minus 15 days! My swimsuit should arrive any day now. I'll be posting pictures soon for you all to see. All I am going to say is... I am not a fan of those clear platforms. It's time to practice my walk and poses...!


Until my next post, I'll be eatin' my greens!
