I’ve been gone for awhile but I promise there’s a good reason. I’ve joined the Transformation Challenge at the fitness center. It’s a 12 week program. I’m in a team of 4 and we meet once a week with a trainer. After that meeting we meet as a team to work out and essentially encourage each other. We have a food log. I can say that thus far it hasn’t been too bad as far as keeping the log. There are foods that I can’t have for twelve weeks but I’m not missing them that much. I’ve been on it for a week now and I think I’ve gotten over the sugar and flour. I’ve switched everything to wheat. We also have nutrition classes once a month and motivational meetings too. Our trainer looks at our food log and critiques it.
As far as being pescatarian, I made it to 20 days. After that, I had to finish the deli slices because they were going to expire. So I had them with wheat pita. I still haven’t eaten real chicken. No beef yet either.
I know that Linda’s been telling me to plan for awhile now, and I think that finally I may do it.
Emotionally, I’m doing okay. I’ve actually been pretty happy. I gave up caffeine. I got headaches for the first couple of days but that’s better now.
My sister was in the house when the cleaning lady came the other day. She and my sister talk a lot. Apparently, she was commenting on all the unfinished knitting laying around the house. So she told my sister that I needed to get laid. I just laughed. Is that her solution for everything?
So my goal for this week is to get to the gym three times, at least. This I promise myself.
Congrats on the exercise plan. I think it’s great there is a team of people working with a trainer. Everyone gives support to all. Have you ever tried organic meats? This is also a great example for your daughter. Keep up the good work!
