So we are on day five. I have been keeping up with what I eat … everything I eat. I am using an app called Lose It!. I can access it on my computer and on my phone. I can keep track of all the exercise that I do, as well. I haven’t cheated yet. I am increasing the exercise each day so I will have to increase the intake on my food. My challenge is picking the right foods. I like spicy and I like fresh. I also have an added challenge that my guys like it also. Dinner will be the main challenge in this regard. I do cook a lot of chicken and pork. I am going to have to add fish to this as well. We don’t eat a lot of beef but when we do it is lean. So if you have any great recipes, I would love to hear from you.
I am enjoying the exercise more and more. I have been walking the dog for quite awhile but now we are going farther. It looks like I will have to carry a stick with me for the neighborhood dogs not on a lead. I have started boxing again, I love it. I feel exhilarated afterwards. It is such a great feeling. I think I am going to add planking, also. My cousin started this and it sounds challenging.
This is all about challenging myself. I know that I can rise and exceed the challenge! I have a support system in place and I have the right attitude. I know it will be difficult on some days and those are the days I will push harder.
So onward with my journey to fit and fabulous!

Yes – so great! Remember to lose weight you don’t want to add back the calories you lose through exercise – otherwise you’ll stay the same. You are doing a great job – I’m inspired by you!
Thank you. I will watch the calories too. I feel so inspired with the group!
