It's like spring out there today! We just went for a 30 minute walk around the park.
Yay-I exercised! And it was so nice out that it just feels good to be outdoors and feel the sun on your skin after all these months of feeling cooped up.
I didn't want to to walk too long because my back is just starting to feel better. I wouldn't want to overdo that pesky exercise and jinx myself! But I know if I could do that every day it would make a difference along with the eating plan.
Damn, where are those scientists with the exercise pill? I am waaaaaiiiiting! I have been waiting for that magic pill for a long time and it seems all the scientists are busy with crap like saving the planet. Don't they know there are people who want to be thin here for whom it does not come natural?!? Help a girl out, can ya?!
Ok, enough ranting about having to exercise. I really do know that once you make it a habit, it actually feels good. Now if I could just force myself to actually do it.
I want to not only look fabulous, but I want to feel fabulous and be healthy. Which is why I am doing a diet plan like Ideal Protein where there is a health care professional monitoring me and I am making healthy choices and being good to my body. This is why I am not on the coffee & cigarettes diet or the vodka & exlax diet or the cocaine & meth diet. While I have heard great things on the weight loss portions of those diets, there are a few side effects I have heard can be rough. There's death, which I hear really sucks,heart failure,incarceration,addiction, seizures....wait, do seizures count as exercise?

Funny stuff. I met the lady today that has lost the 35 lbs in 5 weeks (her weigh in is on Monday as well). She is so happy. I have my first appointment tomorrow, so I guess I'll start on Friday! Wish me luck.
ReplyDeleteYou will be in my prayers!
ReplyDeleteI have a hard time not cheating a little every week. Even when it is just the wrong veggies, it will slow down your results. I know I could lose more if I was better at sticking to the plan. Keep that in mind for optimum results.
Willpower was never my strong suit!
I will try and think of the lady w/ the 35 lbs in 5 weeks results and stick to the rules!
Keep me posted as to how you are doing and feeling. Best of luck!
Linny, Today it begins. One very bright note, my daughter Jessica joined with me. She doesn't have as much to lose as I do, but she could lose around 40 lbs. I paid for her to get started and she's going to handle her weekly food visits. I gotta tell you, the dr is on the plan himself, he started it in January, he's down 50 lbs. He started out at 307, so he's still got a way to go, his goal is 190 (he's very tall).
ReplyDeleteThat is so great that you'll have a diet buddy!
ReplyDeleteGood luck and have a great first week!
