Beachbody Challenge 2013 - Week 3

My own Beachbody Challenge has started on Feb 1, 2013.
In the following 20 weeks - until beginning of summer in Germany - I want to move up a gear and keep my eyes on low-carb clean eating in combination with 4-5 times training a week.

Here´s my diary of Week 3: 

First, Sorry for my long absense, but as announced in my last post I was from Sunday Feb, 17th to Friday Feb, 22th in vacation for skiing in the alps.The weather was marvelous, the snow was gorgeous and we had a lot of fun in our lodge.
(I apologize for my incomplete meal diary, but the connection to the web was really poor!)

Due to the daily skiing – I burned rd about 1200 to 1600 kcal a day !! – I had to change a little bit my nutrition. I tried to eat also clean, but not to eat low carb, because I need this essential additional energy.

For sure, there was one or another cheat meal also included. I enjoyed every bit. :D

But unfortunately this little change in my meal plan came to a problem. I won´t say, that I fell completely off the wagon, but I´m struggeling with coming back to my clean eating plan. The craving for some candies is really high.

As a consequence, my scale didn´t give me a reason to smile – I have a stagnancy….I don´t know, if the stagnancy of my weight is a result of a muscle growth in my legs due to the daily skiing or if my body is just confused!

The last days I rethink my nutrition and training plan. But I didn´t find any blooper.
So I “only” have to be patient – but to be honestly – that´s one of my biggest problems…..

To call back in my mind, in exactly 10 weeks I participate in my first 10K-competition! And only 3 weeks later there´s my second cornerstone of 2013: The wedding of my lovely co-worker Susanne. The last week of May I´ll be in vacation again for a trip through some different states of Germany. We´ll meet our friends of the above mentioned lodge again. We are really impatient for meet them again.

But, as the quote of my personal trainer: NO PAIN – NO GLORY…. So I have to earn this pleasure. My biggest motivation is the imagination of a really hot body on the wedding and the trip through Germany. 

Friday - Feb, 15
Friday is Bootcamp Day. We did a real hard training, because after our training we got a little surprise (some nice canapés) due to the first anniversary of Bootcamp Ulm.

I rocked 704 kcal in 45 minutes.
