Just hit 3 weeks yesterday. My mood and motivation have stabilized and I've seen quite a bit of improvement in my body - not as much as my impatient self would like - but realistically enough to push me easily through the next 9 weeks.
I've tweaked a lot of things with my nutrition cutting out more sugar and have started intermittent fasting this week. That's been the toughest change by far esp with the cravings I get at night but it's not as bad as I thought it would be.
I've learned the secret to a good workout (for me) is a proper warmup. Mostly light cardio, some stretching of the muscles I'll be working out, and a high rep set for each exercise. I've always avoided them because of impatience and trying to preserve my energy but a good warmup is invaluable for getting blood flowing and having more energy to attack your workout.
