So, I have been implementing this diet called the DASH diet, which isn't really a diet at all. I already eat most of the foods that it suggests and that are "allowed." So, I consider it just a change for me. I have been working on getting more fruits and veggies in and not just counting calories like I used to do. I have been so full and have actually lost weight, which was not what I intended since I am 30 weeks pregnant now, but I am welcoming it. I hope to keep this healthy eating up because I know it will benefit me and my little girl. It will also help me lose the weight after I deliver. I have also tried to use moderation in working out versus resting. I have been trying to do at least 20 minutes of cardio at least 3 days a week. My cardio (since I am pregnant) is elliptical, stationary bike, or walking outside when it is warm. I met this workout goal and food goal last week and am doing well so far this week. :)
I actually feel better and have been so full! I can't wait to wake up each day and eat yummy foods and get full! At the beginning of my weight journey, I only counted calories and would eat junky foods, but maintain and lose weight by eating less and working out. I now feel like I get to eat all the time and I am full and even losing weight! I hope I can keep up this enthusiam to go forward!
