AND...Guess what! So it's only technically been 4 days since I started my workout and diet (even though I started eating healthier 1-2 weeks ago) and I totally feel better. Like, I am already feeling more confident about myself and the way I look and the way I fit into my clothes. I've even lost about 1.5 pounds just by eating healthy and working it all off. I know I still have a ways to go and many more weeks before I get the body I want, but it's definitely motivating me to keep going. And, its just plain awesome.
That 1.5 pounds came after a lot of sacrifice though. You definitely notice cutting your caloric intake by 500-600 a day. The last 4 days, I've been taking in about 1200-1400 daily. I've felt hungry a lot at first and still kind of do, but I am definitely noticing that it is getting easier. Your stomach adapts and works with what it gets. That being said, I am SOO excited for my cheat day at the end of the week (probably Sunday). For me, having a day to look forward too once a week to eat without a worry in the world helps me keep going.
And honestly, I was a little skeptical about this whole blog thing. Like I said earlier, I have never, ever, ever been a blogger or read blogs before now. But I totally feel like I HAVE to go through with everything I write on here. It's actually kind of funny. I was telling Brent that I feel accountable to follow through to anyone any where who comes across this blog So, it's totally working to help keep me motivated. Thanks for the help! :)
Making myself proud!!
