Whew, what a month! In spite of FIVE family/close friend birthdays and a very busy work month, I managed to work out at least 6 days a week and stay on track with my eating. Did I eat cake? Yes, I had a cupcake on three different occasions, but I didn't use the birthday dinners as an excuse to go back to my old eating habits. It's finally paying off too ... after 4 months on my program, I can see definite results.
Here's what I'm doing: 6 days at the gym, each day includes cardio and 3 of the days include weight training.
Food - keeping calories at 1200-1400 daily, no more than 10% from carbs and the carbs are primarily fruits and veggies. A big change from my previous "see food" diet ... as in eat whatever I see, LOL!
I not only feel physically better, I feel happier. Must be the endorphins from exercising. :)
