So I am down 20 pounds and holding. Man, it's hard! To really lose weight,I need to not only manage my eating, I need to exercise--and make time to exercise--and it's been challenging recently.
So, I started working out 50 minutes a day on the treadmill--this means I can do my 3 miles a day on a machine--not as much fun as outside--but at least a good workout. I've done this for the past 2 days and am heading to the exercise room right now for today's 3 miles.
My goal is to loose at least another 10 pounds by May, when I am going to a wedding with John, and have a new dress I got online I'd like to wear that is just too small.
Since this is March 10th, that gives me 2 months to lose 10 pounds, or 8 weeks(duh)--that's 1- 1.5 pounds a week--if I do 3 miles a day and keep my calories around 12oo a day most days (a challenge), I can do that for sure.
I am looking so much better than I was--it's inspiring, but I am terrified of backslipping--I see just how easy it is to regain the weight--and I want to NOT go there.
You're doing well with the weight loss! Keep it up.
Remember to vary your exercise and intensity level (or you'll get bored)! Mixing it up gets your body working more!
