Now that I’ve recapped the last 6 weeks, now I get to move forward to look to the next 6 weeks! For the last couple of weeks since the DietBet ended, I’ve been trying different workouts and different eating plans.

I joined a gym with Mama Burg and we’ve been going to some group fitness classes, which I LOVE. I also tried a plant-based diet last week, which was super interesting!

So first, I just want to start by saying how much I felt like I was eating on the plant-based diet. I felt like I could eat all day long and still not go over my calories for the day. So that was awesome. However, my body did not agree with the diet. To try not to gross you guys out, let’s just say that pretty much everything I ate went right through me.  Every. Single. Time.

However, I do know that my body lovessss and thrives off being gluten free. My stomach feels so much flatter, my brain feels so much less foggy, and I have a lot more energy! So, for the next week, I’m going to focus on being gluten free, and still keeping the amount of veggies I eat high. Even though my body didn’t agree with being entirely plant-based, I know that it feels great when I’m eating more plants than animal products.

And as far as my workout plan goes, I’m really wanting to kill it. I want to go hard. I want to push hard. I want to do all of the things. However, I was also not able to lift my arms for a solid 2 days this past week because of going so hard! So, my goal for the next 6 weeks is to workout every day. Whether it’s at home in the morning, or at the gym at night, I need a solid workout every single day. That does NOT include walking the dogs. The dogs still need to be walked on top of my workouts.

Also, two new DietBets started for me today – another Fatgirlfedup DietBet (4 weeks) and a 6-month-long DietBet called Lucky Losers. I’ve only gained 2 lbs since the last one ended, and that was after eating all the food and drinking all the beer this weekend. So I’m pretty happy about that!

So that’s the plan moving forward from here!  Onward!
