Ladies,
I LOST ONE POUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you believe that? I guess with all the advice, something happened. But let me tell you what made sense for me this week:
1. I didn't get rid of the scale at home (husband purposes) but I hid it and did not get on it before weigh in. You don't need that kind of pressure.
2. I ate more fruits and vegetables. Salads with lite dressing were so filling and a piece of fruit in the morning was refreshing.
3. Improved on the exercise. i was working out 4-5 x a week but for 30 minutes. i was so used to my workouts, I wasn't working up a sweat and therefore I really wasn't working out. I decided to work out for an hour 2 of the 4 days. It really did give a push.
4. I mixed up my point days. Some days i ate on the low point range and others I ate on the high point range.
5. FINALLY, JOURNAL, JOURNAL, JOURNAL! EVEN WHEN i HAD A BITE OF SOMETHING, i WROTE IT DOWN.
And of course, the advice here. If you are stuck now is the time to get motivated. I know these last few pounds are going to be a pain to get rid of but if I fell off the bandwagon and gave in to my depression. the old patterns would come back.
Thanks for listening and for being there!
