Doing pretty well. The biggest thing is getting in my exercise, especially since I've been having problems with my knee. I'm probably going to go for a run this afternoon, if my knee is feeling alright. if not, I'll play wii or something. Gonna make this happen! I'm actually adjusting pretty well to my new eating lifestyle. It's pretty weird 'cause usually it's the opposite: I'm really good at getting my exercise in, but not at eating right. Our family started the no processed sugar challenge today. Eight weeks of no sugar; eight weeks of no ice cream :/
BUT I CAN DO THIS!!!
I have yet to weigh myself. I will be doing that every Tuesday.
That's all for now. I'll write later and let you know how I did on my exercise...
-Today's goals-
.EAT NO PROCESSED SUGAR!!! this will be my life for the next eight weeks.
.Eat more protein than carbs. I've made great progress in limiting my fat intake, but my carb intake is still a bit too high. Hopefully the no sugar thing will help with that.
.Monitor your salt intake better. I want these fat fingers to go away!!
.Get in an hour of exercise.

Thanks for the add Mack! Look forward to getting to know you... You CAN do this... it's mind over matter. Don't try to go all in if that's not your style, but do monitor what you eat, eat the most natural unprocessed things you can, and exercise. As for your knee, I am no stranger to joint problems. If you're knee is giving you trouble, running might not be the best thing. If you can walk, go for a brisk one, or at the best a long one, as long as you can handle it. You can try an elliptical machine if you have access, they are less impactful to joints. Also, try yoga! It's great for you, VERY low impact and will be more of a workout than you realize! Good luck!!
