I feel much better. I decided not to exercise yesterday because I felt like crap. Today the headache is gone but the sore throat remains. 
I plan to exercise today. I feel like doing turbo jam. I think I will do the 20 minute workout and walk on the treadmill for twenty minutes. I will exercise on saturday (my off day) to make up for yesterday.
How is it possible to go from feeling fine to feeling like crap in 5 hours. I felt so energized this morning. Now I have a headache and my throat hurts. UGH! I hope it's just a 24 hour bug.
I am going to sound like a cliche through out this entire entry. Slow and steady wins the race. I have to tell myself that everyday. Patience is the key for me to remain on track. I have been trying to lose weight for the past three years without success. I will succeed this time because my mindset is different. I am over the "get thin quick" schemes. I didn't gain the weight over night so I will not lose it over night. After much denial I have finally accepted that there are no short cuts. I will not waste anymore money on diet pills, fad diet books, supplements, apple cider vinegar or body cleanses. Before I was so focused on losing 'x' amount of pounds in a relatively short amount of time. I was setting myself up for failure by establishing unrealistic goals. Now my goals are realistic, simple and attainable.
I am ready to break my cycle of dieting, burning out, and crashing. I know what I need to do. I know how to do it. Now it is up to me to get it done.
I just finished exercising. Gold star for me. 
I just finished my workout. Oh my! I am really out of shape(go ahead and say it no duh!). Despite being tired and sore I pushed myself to finish my workout. I stayed within my food guidelines. 
I am going to be honest. My blog will not be funny, witty, or entertaining. Honestly it may not even be inspiring. My reason for blogging is selfish. It's just a way for me to express my thoughts and hold myself accountable for my actions through out the day. I had a good day yesterday. I met the goals that I set for myself. I didn't eat anything that I wasn't supposed to and I kept my portions under control. i even exercised for the amount of time i was supposed to. Now today is day 2. My goals for today is to do some light circuit training and about 20 - 30 minutes of cardio.
I exercised for an hour today. I plan to eat baked vegetable lumpia for dinner tonight. so far so good. As long as take things day by day instead of focusing on the complete journey i should be fine. i am going to set mini goals. my daily goal is to exercise at least 30 minutes and to avoid my comfort foods. i am going to weigh myself every 2 weeks. my next weigh in will be Oct 19.
Once again I am starting my weight loss journey. I have been carrying this extra weight for 3 years and it's time for me to let it go. Consistency is my weakness. So my mantra everyday will be the Nike slogan "Just do it!" No more excuses for my laziness. It's time for me to become productive. My plan for today is to speed walk on the treadmill for 30 minutes today.
