5/18 & 5/19 - Back to Real Life

It feels sooooo good to be home.  I didn't think it would feel this good to be honest.  I walked in to my apartment and you would think I was in heaven.  TiVo!!!!  I could tell it missed me.  

But just having separate rooms is amazing.    To get space away from food has helped.  Having no food in the kitchen has helped.  Preparing my own food has helped.  I've lost two pounds already! (Ok probably water weight, etc.)  The bad news is when I left for Mexico in December I was probably just below 130 and when I got on the scale yesterday I was 144.2.  Wow. But the crazy part is it doesn't stress me out.  I bought some new clothes ( I can't believe I wear a large now) and I feel good.  I know I'll lose the weight and I almost feel more comfortable in my body now then I was before.  It sounds weird and I'm not quite sure how to explain it. 






I did really well the past two days.  I have my calories at 1800 just so I'm not stressing about it for the next two weeks.  I've been eating less than that though and I've been eating so much more food.  It's amazing what preparing your own food makes. Of course I knew this but it's so good to be back to it.  I can't wait to be settled into my apartment in DC and go grocery shopping. I am excited about that!  

I like my point system.  It's pretty easy!  My workouts aren't going very well but I'm ok with it.  I went on a long walk in the hills this morning instead of going to a spin class.  I have soooo much to do.  I'm a little overwhelmed and that helped me relax.

It is always good to go systematic on the health regime if one has the strong will...but too much pressure on the will is not too good.Just a right balance may be.

Well an able mind and a healthy body is most essential for the stressful life of today and what better way other than just regulated diet with balanced exercise?

Exercise is an important part of fitness which has to be supplemented with diet else it falls flat and gives no results.
