21 March 2012

So, looking back to the beginning of the year, I have lost a total of 19 pounds since the 1st of January. I lost 7lbs. in January, 8lbs. in February, and 4lbs. so far in March. I am excited by those numbers because my loss has been measurable, even if it is not steady or significant. I am motivated to beat my loss in February (8lbs.) by the end of March.

I started working out consistently at the gym and I definitely feel better. I am finding new ways to eat stuff that I love, without blowing myself out of the water with calorie consumption. There are foods that I will compromise on, but I will NEVER cut out completely. I am working on making good choices consistently so that I can choose when to indulge without guilt.

There is so much contradictory information out in the diet industry that I have decided to use my common sense rather than bank on someone else's "AMAZING" results. My results would not be categorized as "amazing", but they are my results from my hard work and my dedication to my health and my life. I love this new outlook on health and fitness that I am developing. I've come this far, and I don't feel like I am at the end of my journey, rather I feel like I am just getting revved up to do more!

So I have been kind of absent from fs recently because I am using my CORE armband and tracking my food and exercise on the accompanying website that syncs with the armband when I plug it in. However, that site does not offer the same kind of community (buddies & forums) as fs, and does not have a journaling section. I think these parts of fs have been and are essential to my success. So, even though I don't get over here three, four, or more times per day like I used to, I have not dropped off the path or quit on myself.

I joined Anytime Fitness last week and am really enjoying having a place to go and a program to follow. The working out gives me so much energy that I come home from the gym and turn on the dvd player and do some Zumba! So working out leads to more working out, who knew?!?! I am also sleeping better not just because I am tired, but also because I am getting healthier. The quality of my sleep is improving even if the quantity is not always as much as I want.

I joined a couple of new challenges that start tomorrow and I am just excited to keep this up! My daughters are starting to notice that my face looks slimmer and there is DEFINITELY a difference in the fit of my clothes. I am trying to hold out for another 10 pounds before I go buy new pants, but I don't know if I can wait that long. I have to pooch out my tummy so that my pants don't fall down. LOL

So I just wanted to spend a few minutes journaling and catching up with the fs community. I never would have gotten this far, so far, if I hadn't started here at the first of the year.

More to come!!!
