Slow Go
Well, I am adjusting the way I eat...portions and food types. It's not my fav thing to do cause it's hard....butti must be done. I simply cannot eat the foods I LOVE and loose weight in any timely fashon. I know it will be better once the temps warm up and I can hit the pavement! Until then, I've got to tighten the diet in a bit.
Just had a cup and a half of rice with broccoli and carrots. Was suprisingly filling/satisfying. We'll put it this way...I won't be going back for seconds. I will have carrots with fat free ranch for a snack. Supper is going to be grilled chicken and veggies over a bed of brown rice. You can't over eat when rice is involved...it fills you up way to quickly. So meals on a bed of rice is the way to go for me. I usually cannot finish it.
So, we finally got a Wii fit! I LOVE it! I spent 2 hrs on it the first day! I did step for like an hour and then did some of the other stuff. I was really suprised at how good my balance is. I just knew it would be off a bit. Guess all those years of dance and my grandmother telling me not to slouch paid off, LOL! I'll be doing my step workout in a bit. I warm up on the beginner one and then head off to the advanced. I thoroughly enjoyed crushing everyone in the family on those! LOL! (Guess not fair that I've taken step and had dance training when they haven't. But then, I've never gone skiing before when hubby has and did well at that.)
I haven't gained any weight...haven't lost any either. But, I can tell that something is going on. The weight is becoming more evenly distributed cause my clothes fit different. Muscle I guess...to be honest I'd gotten pretty lazy. Blah.
I've just been a winter bum I guess. HaHa! Owell...that portion of the year is almost behind me...move onto spring summer and fall! Watch out hubby...gonna need new clothes! ;-)
