In March, I started to diet and exercise a lot. I began working with a personal trainer 2 times a week and staying on a low calorie diet. Recently I cut out sugar and starches as well, and trying to eat a more clean lifestyle. I'm happy to report with a lot of hard work, I was able to lose 15 pounds of FAT and build a lot of muscle. I'm fitting in clothes I haven't worn in a few years, so it feels like I have a brand new wardrobe! Changing my lifestyle has been an adjustment. I've had to start carefully planning my meals. No more grabbing a bowl of chips for lunch or snaking on bagel bites. I've learned a lot of new cooking skills as well. Such as I can now make chili without needing the package of seasoning I usually buy when I want to make something. On top of changing my eating habits, I've been working out like crazy. I've not ventured outside much yet to run, but I've gotten pretty good at it on the treadmill. My goal is in the fall when the kids are back in school to start running. We'll see. I never thought I'd be a runner, so it's nice to have added it to my list of things I've accomplished in life.
The hard part is sticking to this. Life is full of temptations. Chocolate, cake, potato chips. I hope in a few weeks to be able to eat some of those again, but I've committed myself to 6 weeks without it. Crazy...I know. I don't miss my cookies anymore, and let me tell you, I was a cookie-a-holic! I could eat a whole package and not feel guilty--seriously. Happy Monday! If you're still eating cookies, would you mind having an extra today for me? *wink wink* By the way, if you come over and visit - be warned! This eCard explains me!
