So disappointed. I haven't had any movement on the scale for 2 weeks now. Centimeters are not moving. I've been training 90 minutes a day, mixing both cardio and weight training. I burn over 1000 calories just on training per day. I eat extremely clean - and nothing!
I've noticed toning and muscle definition, but that's not my goal.
I am hungry to improve in my sport, and after Sunday's race; even though my placing was "better" (depending on what category you want to measure that "better" on); my overall time had not improved.
Had a chat with my trainer last night, so today I have reduced my carb intake to 20% of my diet, increased fats and protein to 40%. Introducing pre-workout into my lifestyle to help improve my stamina and to train harder. Carbs will now purely be to transport protein to my muscles.
Anyways, nothing like changing things up. Giving myself a week focusing on my food before I start going hard on my training again for the next event end October.

Wow Chantelle, reading that journal entry made me so sad.
You are a mamba at gym and I take my hat off to you for eating so clean during the coarse of challenge, the weekends temptations get the better of me and you have been so disciplined throughout.
Don't beat yourself up over this! You are so fit and your body is getting the best possible treatment from all that clean food it is getting.
Perhaps you could also try and shock you body with a completely different type of exercise for a while, like running, and then go back to your normal routine, but perhaps your body needs a change of scenary for change to happen :)
Keep going strong Chantelle, cause I'm sure your photos at the end of the challenge will prove the hard work and dedication you have put in!

Don't be despondent....I find that I plateau for a bit then have a good drop and plateau again etc etc....so maybe you are similar and the big drop is about to happen.

I agree with Juanita and Kelly. I would love to be as strong as you. Don't beat yourself up. We can see the results, don't let the scale disappoint you. You look great already!

I just saw that you are only sleeping 3 hours a night! That could be a big problem. Your body enters a whole other state of metabolism and calorie burning. I was worried that I am only sleeping 6 hours... you need to slow down!

I sleep from 11h00 - 06h00 - average 7 hours. I don't "rest" much - I agree. Now with exam prepping, it will mean less sleep.

Hi Chantelle, my Boss just returned from a Sport Conference in Jamaica and they stressed how your recovery improves if you sleep at least 2.5 hours before midnight.... So give it a try!!
