Finally

So I finally worked out today. Did 30 minutes on the treadmill, reaching just under 2 miles. Obviously, a lot of work needs to be done to get miles down to a better time, but I'm not trying to win a race here.

I have meals planned out for the week, as to stop any ideas of grabbing Chick fil A for lunch or pizza for dinner. Besides those types of meals here and there, I already eat pretty healthy. No soda or coffee, eat brown rice, whole wheat/grains everything, low fat/no fat options, fruits and veggies, drink plenty of water and unsweet tea from the pot... Really, it just comes down to me sticking with a workout plan and forgetting those last minute, bad for you meals.

I plan on blogging about more than just weight loss, but I guess I'll get to that later.

    Yes. Planning meals will definitely help you from making "bad" eating decisions or setting you up to eat something you wouldn't have.

    I tend to have a cup of tea at night (with no sugar).

Dear friend

I like to start my notes to you as if we’re already in the middle of a conversation. - Kathleen Kelly Well, I forewarned you all that I'm not much of a diary writer.  Here is it, almost 9 years since my last post.  Wow!  I can't believe this blog is still out on the internet, and that I could log in and read all my old posts!  It's so cool to be able to go back and read my experiences from 10 years ago.  Things sure have changed since then - except one thing: I'm still trying to lose weight! Thankfully, I have kept off the 50 pounds I lost in 2010-2011.  And I've even fluctuated between 5-10 pounds less throughout the years!  Right now, I'm at about '57 pounds off, 8 more pounds to go' mark.  I've been reaching for a specific goal weight for awhile now, and that's just 8 pounds away.  However, it's many more inches to lose - and that's more important to me than the actual number on the scale.  Aside from this, I just want to be healthier.

Two weeks in...

Well, it's been two weeks. Two weeks that I've been very strict about what I'm eating and working out. Last Monday, when I weighed myself, I'd lost 2 lbs. I'll see what the scale says tomorrow. I haven't had fast food in over two weeks! This is a big deal and big accomplishment. But you know what, I haven't been craving it. If I feel the need to stop and get food, I go to a sandwich shop, where I can get good, healthy, fresh ingrediants. I worked out 5 times last week and 4 times this week. I think I'll wait another 2 weeks until I measure myself again. My two friends haven't worked out or been restricting their eating. I told one that they need to start working out. Sure, without them participating, I'm in for an easy win. But I'd rather lose $100 (what we're all offering, at the end of the deal, as a prize) and have my friends lose weight with me. I'm just trying very hard to make sure I do the best that I can.
