Healthy Weight Loss

[sylvie]

my workout today!

- 15 mins on elliptical
- beginner's workout DVD with Jillian Michaels (wow, what a burn THAT was)
- 10 more mins on the elliptical
- worked the arms out with 5 lb weights
- and going to do a brisk walk after supper - it's beautiful out!

feeling super energetic today...loving it..
LOVED the tip of using lettuce in place of bread, i used it like a wrap..
great way to cut the carbs down, thank you!

i am going to use that website Kelt provided, to get some new ideas of cooking with vegetables - my methods are so basic and boring... and maybe some new salad ideas too, some different ways to spruce them up.. thank you Kelt!

list of to do's for me:
- get a new workout routine going, so i'm doing a little more than walking each day
- get some new recipe ideas
- get a book and be better about journalling my daily intake (something i can bring to work even)
- work on portion control
- cut back on cheese, i love cheese, but i eat far too much
- take my measurements to track that each week too
- celebrate my accomplishments more - because i'm doing this!

36 lbs lost to date and that's something i should be proud of !!!
congratulations to everyone for weight loss and encouragement and motivation, what's important is how good we feel.. keep up the great work everyone!
