On Monday, I started to "do right". I use the term loosely. But I'm not eating fast food and I'm trying to stick to 1500 calories or less a day. I want to lose 30 pounds by 6/1, that's less than 2 pounds a week so it is attainable.
Eating is only half of the battle. And even though I think about food all the time, and food makes me happy, food is the easier part for me. You see, I hate exercise even more than I like food. But, I HAVE to do both. Have to, even though I really don't want to and I'm sure it's going to suck.
They say you have to learn to love exercise. I'm pretty sure it'd be easier to learn to love hugging a cactus, but I'm willing to give it a shot (no I'm not, I'm totally lying and I'm going to hate every moment of it).
Starting January 30th, a couple of friends and I will be doing Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred
The results online look fabulous (yes, I know you have to really do it in order for it to work. yes, I know that sitting on the couch while saying pppffftttt does not count as exercise, although it should).
So I invite you to join me. We can do this if we work together.
It's not that you have to learn to love exercise, you just have to find a kind of movement you love. Like having a dance party in your living room with K or chasing her around the house hollering at the top of your lungs...Or yoga ;)
ReplyDeleteI like that "movement". And I know that "movement" has to be more than the typing I'm currently doing because that's not getting it. A lot of it is in my head.
DeleteIf I enjoy yoga as much as I enjoy yoga pants, I'm all set.
