I'll post my pics below, but also make sure to check them out on the tab below my banner marked "Photo Journey." (Click to enlarge):
I can tell the difference since I have started and I really had to think about that today to feel good about my progress. I have been feeling that it isn't enough, but at the end of the day I am doing better than I was when I started. That was what I wanted: to feel better. I have gained some weight since Friday, however, so I will have to start monitoring my food intake. Starting tomorrow I will track my calories until my 90 day update. Then I will evaluate again how I am doing and any changes that need to be made.
Today by itself was okay. I got up late, but not too late. I actually did good and woke myself up and got up to weigh myself and measure and take pics. Then I ate a pretty good lunch with protein and veggies.Dinner consisted of some tofu that I marinated and onions and celery. Was very good. Of course I am ruining all of that by having a drink. Really need to stop that, but as soon as I start tracking my food and drink tomorrow I think the problem will take care of itself, because of all the calories that are in alcohol. I can already foresee my weight loss by tracking. The biggest thing is to not stress out about it. If I do then I will reduce my goal dates. Better to lose weight gradually and with less stress than overdo it and gain everything back.
Exercise wise, I did Energy and Red Hot Core. I had meant today to be another exercise heavy day with my extra, non-yoga workout attached. I got tired though after doing my yoga and decided that since my exercise isn't the problem I would just chill a little today after my yoga workout and not stress about it and prepare for tomorrow. Will continue to do my challenge and hope that next Thurs/Fri weigh in is better than today's and most likely tomorrow's.

ReplyDeleteThank you!!!
DeleteWow - you're doing great! What's up with that amazing flexibility? Are you a closet gymnast or something? The pictures show definite progress - you're my inspiration now. I need to keep up.
ReplyDeleteHehe Thanks! I've always been pretty flexible as far as I can remember, but I really limber up if I am stretching a lot and working on it. Seems like yoga is having that effect. I also did stuff when I was little (cheerleading, ballet, tap, gymnastics for a little bit). I did martial arts for a year and a half as well. Would really love to get back into something like martial arts or dance. You are doing great as well! Keep it up!!!
