Diet
I had a few hurdles this past week. They ordered pizza at work on Friday for lunch - but I ate what I brought with me. Saturday we were running around visiting all day, but I stuck to my guns. Even at dinner, I ordered what I knew I could eat and keep in my range. Monday my boss took me to lunch for my review, but I just had a bowl of soup. It was a challenging week - but I fought to stay on track!
Exercise
I'm trying to get on a routine with my exercise. I made up a schedule. I only have so much time, so I'm doing what I can. I'm trying to do the treadmill every day if I can find a way to fit it in. Fridays are the hardest for me, so that has turned into my off day. On Sundays I am doing the "fat burning" part of my kettle bell dvd. On Mondays I'm doing the core training and I'm alternating arms and legs on Wednesdays. I haven't popped in the Jillian Michaels dvd I bought yet. Maybe this week I will see what its like.
Lifestyle
I have been getting discouraged by the numbers on the scale. I feel like I am really sacrificing and working so hard and the results just aren't there. The numbers are not on the scale, but I can feel the changes in my body. I wish I had done measurements when I started this. My bras are too big, my jackets are loose, my jeans are big on me..... I need to pay more attention to these types of things than to the number on the scale. It will catch up eventually. And here, for some added inspiration when I need it:
This is a picture of 5 pounds of fat vs 5 pounds of muscles. Just because they weigh the same, they are NOT the same..... the scale doesn't know everything!
