aggie95's Journal, 07 October 2015

Went shopping last night and got an eye opener. I realized that I've gained weight around my mid section, aka the muffin tops! I need some advice on how to shake things up.

I thinking about things, I'm in a rut. I don't eat badly but I eat the same things. And why won't you when you enjoy it and you know the calorie value. I also need to do more activity in regards to core strengthening.

Lend me your thoughts buddies!

Cheers!

Hi Aggie! Not to worry, maybe a new approach is a good bet. Just for a trial check out low carbohydrate diet info (count grams of carbohydrates, rather than calories. Try it for 2 weeks; drop 7-8 pounds; and then re-assess. Good luck and have a great day.

I notice if I don't get my sit ups in that is where I start to see it right away. :/

When I need new ideas for food I go to Pinterest and look up healthy recipes. We've been making more grilled chicken lately and just adding different seasoning, it's amazing how different a meal can be with just different seasonings. The other thing I've been trying to change up a little bit is our side dishes with dinner, more veggies or fruits and whole grains, fewer starchy sides. I'm also really trying to get 5 servings of fruit and veggies in each day, so if I snack in the evening I eat a fruit or veggie and I think that has helped a lot. As for activity, you have to do what you enjoy, so if there are any DVDs that you like throw them in 2 or 3 times a week or find a new one, or if you can get online there are some good workouts there that are quick too. Warrior X Fit is a great site that has 20 min workouts that kick your butt! I just can't get online in our basement now and that's the only place I have room for workouts. You'll figure something out. Good luck!!

I try to make one new recipe each week. (Of course, that is the goal...it doesn't always work out in real life! :) ) That keeps me thinking about new ingredients or new vegetables to try. Along the way, I have found that getting into a rut was a hazard for me. Whenever I felt like I was doing just ok, I would try to figure out something new I could do to keep it fresh and interesting. I would add a walk to my day or try a new exercise class or video, for example. I think that our bodies get used to anything, so I always liked to mix things up.
