I have thouroughly enjoyed getting out of the house more. We have been on a lot of bike rides. I feel more healthy just by getting out and enjoying the fresh air. I have cut down a lot of the carbs and the non essential sugars and followed the food pyramid pretty closely. I rewarded myself this morning and also maybe a little last night by having some of my old favorite foods. I had the ultimate hash browns from the cafateeria but other than that I have been pretty good. I switched out soda (minus the mountain dew today) for V-8 fushion juice. I had to go to the DR. today for a check up and they put me on a scale and I have lost about 5 lbs from the last time I weighed in. So that would put me at 255 give or take a pound. Eating healthier has already given me a little edge on life to the point that I can't just sit anymore through a movie.
Good for you Courtney! 5 pounds is a lot! Doesn't sound like it but it is. My thirst used to only be quenched with Sprite or Dr. Pepper. And water just tasted gross to me. But I switched to drinking water and that's really all I want. Well Dr. Pepper is REALLY good still but I never drink it. I am so much happier with my water. I learned the other day that soda is worse for you than beer. Kind of puts things into perspective eh?
