#50in52 Week 16 and Day 10 #NYNR

It's been quite awhile since I have posted about my 50in52 challenge, so let's just get down to the nitty gritty.

Week 12: 176.2 (-1.0) - my last weight in
Week 16: 174.4 (1.8)

Given that the holidays were a hard time emotionally for my family and physically since I didn't get much exercise in AND I ate whatever I wanted, I cannot complain. My highest weight during the holiday season was 178.4lbs so technically I am down a full 4lbs! I am still doing the #NYNR challenge and absolutely loving it. I really feel that this may become a lifestyle change for me. I snuck in some dairy the other day and I paid for it on Tuesday morning. My stomach was in knots for most of the morning. 

This challenge has showed me that I can emotionally disconnect from food. After a week of eating oatmeal with fruit and NO sugar, I know that I can do this. My trainer says that this may have been exactly what I needed. Will I live a no gluten, no sugar and dairy-free life 100% of the time now? Well, I am not sure yet. Do I think that I will be 110% more conscious of what I put in my body and avoid things that I know I don't need and just want? Absolutely yes.
