I'm feeling pretty positive about my WLJ right now! Here is an excerpt from my blog, since I'm feeling lazy this morning (well, too lazy to think of something creative TWICE) :-)
So, I'm making it a new goal of mine to focus on losing inches, not just pounds!
One way to up my inches lost is to change up my workouts, which is something that I discussed on here recently. I've decided that I really need to add more strength training to my workouts to start seeing maximum results.
And since I get bored with strength easily, I've decided to trick myself by using fun workout DVDs that combine cardio with strength. I dug out my Firm Wave and the DVDs that came with it.
Wow, I forgot what a great workout this is! I did the 40 minutes DVD last night, and this morning I'm feeling the burn in exactly the places that I want to firm up!!! (hips, upper thighs, lower stomach) so I know that adding this workout into my routine will help. Plus, it's 40 minutes long, the exact amount of time that I have to exercise before work. How perfect is that?!
I have decided to definately follow WW as written until I reach 145, and then to slowly start modifying it to fit my needs and wants.
Here are my thoughts on the "Leah's Modified WW Plan" so far:
•-Stay on the Simply Filling Technique
•-except add the following foods to the Power Foods list: nuts, natural nut butters, avacados, healthy no-sugar-added cold cereals, almond milk
•-Reduce Weekly Points Allowance to 10-15 to make up for my Power Foods additions...
•-Eat all AP if I want/need to
What do you think?
I think that those modifications could keep me ridiculously happy and able to stay on WW (even if not the "real" plan). I'll let you know how it goes, but it's not going to start until I'm maintaining for a bit.
Anyway, I am down .8 for my second week on the Simply Filling Technique. YAY!!!
