I feel great right now. I just got off the treadmill. I still only did 30 minutes but I used the hand weights and upped my speed and incline. It took me so long to get to this point yet it was worth every second of the suffering. There was so much agony on that treadmill. My feet were on fire. My knees buckled. My breathing was labored. Now, I fly!
I didn't really eat a decent dinner. I ate some cheese, vegetables, and salami were I was cutting it for tomorrow. I finally got those fatty acid and fiber pills that the Jonny Bowden book, Living Low Carb, recommends. In was shocked to read ghat fiber is the best weight loss pill you can take. Back in the day, I used to take ephedra. It ticks me off that it was banned because people were abusing it. I don't need it now anyway. I have natural energy now.
Yesterday, I did two back-to-back water aerobic classes. The first was more for the legs and the second was a slow one mostly focusing on the arms. I even went in the hot tub for about five minutes after. I drank a ton of water and stretched so much. I took the dog for a walk in the evening but didn't walk on the treadmill.
I think I need to cut out cheese! Tomorrow my sister is coming. We have a pretty big happy hour planned. I'm not that worried about food but am planning to drink. I used to drink vodka with ginger ale, grenadine, and extra cherry juice. Ugh, it was filled with sugar. Now, I'm thinking vodka, club soda, with a splash of lime? I have to start to live again but this is going to be hard.
