So I decided this year that I was not going to start dieting UNTIL after Chicky's birthday and Valentines.. Mostly because I hate failing and it would be a guarantee fail if I did it any earlier then today! SO I am ready.. I feel good about it. I cant wait to feel better and I have been having dreams about being a work-out fanatic~ My goal for this year is to be able to run. I have two friends both named Julie who are runners and I totally admire them.
I wish for myself to become healthy and to feel good about myself. I miss being able to sleep w/ out all the issues I have and to be able to be comfortable in the clothes I wear. I just want to be happy and I havent been in a long time.
I am going to go w/ a low carb diet because I know carbs are my enemy and that is where I always screw up and overdose with. I dont think I am going to follow any specific diet because I have tried that and it is so much work having to make sure I am doing it correctly. I have done ENOUGH diets I know what I should and shouldnt do so I am going to try this with out the stress of people or books telling me I am doing it wrong.
I want to join the gym so I hope that I am able to do that. I do have a treadmill at home but Bella doesnt allow me to be on it cause she thinks it is attacking her or something she barks so loud that it is very distracting! I think we are going to go out and take her for a walk.
Well that is all I have I am going to be back more often now that I am starting this new step in my life!!
Start slowly and aim to loose a pound or two a week; you can do that by simply eating a little less and eating a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables and drinking lots of water.
ReplyDeleteDo not starve yourself as your body will go into survival mode and start to store fat. Start lifting weights or using resistance bands as that will build muscle and muscle will burn more caleries than fat.
When you can, do aerobic exercises and do lots of streching as that will help with your flexibility. Try not to overdo to the point where you get so sore that you start missing your workouts.
You are better off eating six or seven "small" meal rather than three "big" meals and besure to eat a good healthy breakfast. Drink lots of fluids throoughout the day and especially when you are working out!
Go to be as early as possible and get lots of sleep.
Good luck!
