It feels good to feel good again! I'd say I'm about 90% back to normal. This morning was the last boot camp cycling class which makes me a little sad but its time to switch to more outdoor cycling.
The FS site and the cycling class have been life savers for me this year. I feel that between switching to healthier foods, tracking my food intake, and the super charged workouts that I have gotten my metabolsim back on track following my post menopausal weight gain.
I still enjoy treats but the most important lesson I have learned is moderation and to get away from black and white thinking. Before I was either on a diet or off a diet - and when I was off I was eating everyting in site like it was the LAST time I would get to eat a particular food because it was not on my program! Now I'm learning that I truly can eat "whatever" about 20% of the time, as long as I'm eating healthy the other 80%. For example, yesterday we must have walked miles rummaging! I did not feel the least bit guilty about the corn dog or small chocolate malt I had for lunch. I'm not going to eat healthy all the time - that would be no fun! More junk food for supper would have been overkill; but the spinach salad and turkey reuben were perfect.
I have no desire to go lower than 142 - I want to stay between 142-144. I don't think it will be an impossible weight for me to maintain.
Next weeke we have our first time trial and other group rides - can't wait!
