Wow where has time gone?
It is wild how fast time flys.... I started this blog about six months ago with the intent of updating on my weight loss journey at least once a week... Well as you can see here it is May 29th... :-)
Well, from January through April 23rd I really didn't do anything to start attaining my health goals.
On April 23rd I decided that enough was enough, I gave up bread!!! Completely gave it up, cold turkey...
And let me tell you it was not an easy task... The first day that I decided to give it up we happened to be having a family dinner at Olive Garden... Yes, you heard me correctly, OLIVE GARDEN home of the worlds best bread sticks...
I was so proud of myself, I did not have one stick of bread... This took a lot of will power...
This day marked the ending of a new beginning... I am happy to report that since that day I have not eaten one bite of bread, have cut out hidden valley ranch dressing, and am only eating 1200 calories per day.
I have recently started a boot camp style workout with a few of my friends from work and I absolutely love it.... We go to the boot camp classes twice a week, Saturdays at 6:00am and Tuesdays at 7:00pm.
I will admit that this is not an easy task as I am not a morning person at all and usually once I get home from work all I want to do is relax.... But here we are starting week 3 of an 8 week boot camp....
The goal is to workout at least 5 days per week. We are doing other workouts such as Zumba dancing, yoga, weight training, walking, riding bikes, and lots of other fun stuff...
Today I weigh 246 lbs and have dropped an inch almost all throughout my body...
I am excited to continue on this fun path and hope that you are just as excited for me....
Let the summer fun begin
