WRAPPING IT UP AFTER THE HOLIDAYS

Leave a reply

The holidays were amazing, and now it is time to recharge and detox. I did splurge a little, not much but I find it created cravings I did not have for the last six months. Time to take the tree down, and make the new years resolutions a reality.

I decided I want to lose 40 lbs more. With the holidays ending I find myself going between being highly inspired and motivated, and being completely overwhelmed. I need to regroup and refocus, and get back to my plans. Today I had a long day, but I went speed walking with my husband James for over an hour. I will not give up even if I have moments of feeling discouraged. I have too many goals.

I have my work cut out for me with diet, exercise, and yoga plus planning what my next charity will be. I will stay the course and make a difference in my life as well as the lives of others. After all, that is why we are here, for each other.

In the coming week I am going to post my revised work out schedule for the week. I am keeping a food journal and I am even contemplating going to Weight Watchers again, it keeps me honest without getting obsessive.

Sweet Dreams,

TUESDAY WEIGH IN

Vegetable juice to help me reset my body 



The Thanksgiving Holiday was amazing, and having all of the time off was great but now it is time to get back to work. This week is a short work week,which I love. I think the weather may get a little cooler, which always makes it challenging to go and work out but I will get through the December temptations. I am about to weigh myself, I cheated on Thanksgiving but to be honest even though I only cheated one day, I did not watch my sodium as much as usual over the weekend. So I will see how the scale reacts, also I may have some female water weight to boot. Female water weight with Thanksgiving, a double weight whammy. So, in essence I need to make sure I am right on track up until my birthday in three weeks, I am going to be extra diligent with my diet until December 21st. We are going to Musso and Frank’s for my Birthday, a LA bucket list must. I want to get a new outfit and celebrate all that I have worked hard for, and take lots of photos.

Ok so the damage is two pounds. It is disheartening to see the scale up, but I know with female water weight and the holiday that may not be permanent. I am just going to push harder up until Christmas, do the December challenge to work out every day this month that Melissa Bender Fitness suggested. When the New Year hits I will even work harder. I have this, for me at my age it is taking some time but I am getting there. When I was younger I lost weight so quickly, but I understand the challenges of being a woman in my forties. I am just going to reset with healthy choices and work out and clear my mind and body.

Off for now, workout or yoga tonight, and if I go to yoga I am running all the way there. I will conquer this just in time to do my twenty pound charity. I am just waiting on an email and checking a few details before I reveal what I am doing this month.
