So far so good, but I really need to drink more water. For some reason I just can't get it in. I'm trying too! I need to get more in me...especially with the warmer weather I need to keep myself hydrated.
Eating wise, I have lots of great idea's and recipes. Some were definitely stolen from On Life, Love, and Low Carb Living (which is very motivational and inspiring by the way! All the great recipes and tips definitely inspired my low carb change).
I didn't workout yesterday. For some reason I just wasn't in the mood, I couldn't get myself going in that department. I was too busy figuring out menu plans and what I was going to make for dinner and lunch and have handy for me to snack on. When I came home from running around with my mom, I spent most of my day in the kitchen preparing, and mixing up snacks. Pre-packaged and on-hand is super convenient!
I have to get some exercise is! I'm gonna head to the gym in about 10 mins and see what I can get accomplished for myself. I feel so guilty not going, and going is a must! I have to tone up these flabs and burn calories! I'm still sticking with my first weight loss goal of 5% (of 219.0) when I started... So I'm working toward it. I have a major OCD with the scale... I weigh myself nearly everyday... I think I need to hide it until it comes time next Monday to weigh in. I got on the scale today of course and I was down, but if I wait and weigh in like I'm supposed to on Mondays then maybe the loss will have more of an impact on me as well as satisfaction!
I'm trying to think of something I can do for myself for when I reach my 5% goal. Obviously not a food reward or a clothes reward. I'd like to stay away from buying clothes because there's so many that I already have that if I could just slim down would fit, plus I don't want to waste money on things that may or may not only fit temporarily once I continue to lose weight below my 5% mark.
Anyway- Off to the gym I go!
Thanks for the shout out! You are doing great! Water will come with time. I just keep a cup on my desk and sip on it all day. Before I know it I've gone through like 60 ounces. Something else that helps is a Bobble (waterbobble.com). It filters water from the tap so you don't have to worry about lugging bottles everywhere you go.
