A Good Start

Well, I've lost 8 lbs. so far. Not bad but much work to be done.

My eating habits are in place. I'm tracking my intake and have cut out bad foods.

I have reduced my alcohol consumption to an average of one drink per night. This also allows me to avoid snacking late at night. A good double whammy!

I'm using the exercise bike and have jogged a couple of times. Morning exercises are going well. Today was 3 sets of 22 pushups and 45 crunches.

Onward!

And....We're Back!

Okay, so I've reached a new low. Or should I say, "A new high .

So time to get back to it! When the fat clothes get snug, you know you've been lazy for too long.

Here's how I'm going to get to my first goal (225) :

1. start food diary and track calories/protein/fat/carbohydrates (this will cut down right away because I'll be conscious of what I'm taking in every day)

2. cut out a lot of bad food, eat good food instead

3. hydrate

4. begin (slowly at first) to exercise; pushups and situps first thing, cardio 3X/week in p.m.


Once I notice a difference in my clothes fitting and how I feel, I'll get that motivation boost I will need to keep me going!
