It is an amazing feeling to meet your goals week after week! There have been some goals that I have fallen short on in these past weeks, but overall I am finally meeting my goals. I am putting myself and my goals first and nothing else gets done until I have done my duty for myself. This is the only way I can attain my goals. Otherwise I get to sidetracked, tired, busy, etc to focus on what I need to reach my goals.
Weigh in: 214.8 down 2 lbs exactly from last week! With my goals for this deployment being 2 lbs a week I am keeping in track with my goals. Would I like to see the numbers be larger-of course-but I am celebrating that I met my actual goal! yay!
Workouts: I have been consistent for the past 17 days about working out. Either in the gym, going for walks with the kids, or doing something at home. I feel so fantastic about this success. It is keeping my motovation to continue up too. I feel so good after my workout. I feel so sane and normal too. It is amazing what exercise does for the emotions.
Diet: I have been so good with portion control and not going overboard! Most days I stick to my 90/10 theory and have been really good on days I know I will be splurging at night. This has been so exciting for me because I am such a food nut, I am actually starting to act like one again. Eating the foods that I really love-like fruits and veggies. I know that this is the key to my life success. Finding the balance in my diet. I am getting there and I am on the right path. That is the best news of all this. You can't out exercise a bad diet! so true!
Also, I have been drinking nothing but water! I FEEL fabulous about it too! I don't crave the soda at all not tempting at all-what a freedom. I feel like a drug addict who doesn't need their crack anymore. YAY! I am a water snob though. I only like my filtered water like brita or pur I don't like to taste chemicals in my water or plastic. See water snob-LOL
Remember to have health success you need 4 things.
1) Diet
2) Strength
3) Flexabilty
4) Cardiovascular
