Happy to hear you are motivated Jennifer! I feel the same way, I just wish I wouldn't have lost my motivation for those eight months. I was still working out during that time, but barely. Slow walks. Maybe 6-10 times per month at the gym, but half-hearted workouts. And my eating was not on track. But that is in the past, I can't change it. I can only change my future behaviors. And I am the one in charge of my behavior.
Now that I've changed back to a healthy way of eating, the gym has become addictive. No, really. I have so much energy. It makes me feel so good physically, but also mentally. I can already tell that I'm looking people in the eye more, I'm standing taller, and I feel more confident. I just feel happy. It must show. Our receptionist told me this morning "You're looking so thin" and I've only been back on track for about a week. So, a lot of it is in my attitude and how I carry myself because it's not like I've dropped a lot of weight in the past week!
I stepped on the scale this morning and I have gained back 23 pounds of the 99 I had lost. OUCH. That's hard to say. No more though. I will lose those 23 again and I'm sending some of their friends with them too! Time to pack up, fat cells! This fat cell hotel is closing for business 'cause we're opening up a muscle factory!
Have a great weekend!
Erin
