20 October 2008

Well, I feel like sh*t today...but I'm in a great mood, though.

Went to the grocery store and got some more healthy food...although I stood in the ice cream aisle for 20 min debating whether or not to cheat...I chose not to.

I stayed low on carbs today. Didn't get much exercise today, since I have a cold and it is FREEZING outside. I really miss it. I may go out for a walk tonight for an hour just so I can say I actually did something.

I know this sounds crazy but lately I've been thinking about what I'm going to do after I lose this weight. I have NO intentions of eating low carb forever.

I think I will change from regular white bread to whole wheat, from sugar to splenda, from white rice to brown rice, and so on...

It sounds so simple but really it is a 100% better than what I was eating before I started dieting.

I don't want to feel deprived my whole life.

They have lots of sugar free ice creams and such...but what is better for maintenance, sugar free or fat free?

I'm so confused and I'm the kinda woman who needs a plan in order to feel secure...this is a major life change and I wanna know that I can KEEP the weight off after I lose it and still enjoy things in moderation. What are the best ways to do this? Lower calories? Sugar Free? Fat Free?

Any ideas? I'd really like to form a long term plan because this time, I KNOW I'm going to drop the weight and get there!

Well today was okay...I did well on my diet...

I now have a full fledged cold and it's really got me sleepy...I don't feel well at all...I'll probably eat my dinner, take a long, hot bath, and go to bed really early.

I did walk for 30 min. today...and tried to do some Tae Bo, but kept coughing...so I figured I'd take today as a rest day...but I did get in my minimum of 30 min. of cardio! Go me!

At least I know it's working (the videos) because I'm SORE all over...but it feels so good because I know it's affecting my muscles!

I'm going to do my exercise routine Mon-Fri, and clean house and wash clothes and have family time on Sat. & Sun.

I'm also cutting back on the low carb sweets. I can have a chocolate treat on Sundays and Wednesdays and have SF jello Mon, Tues, Thurs, and Fri if I want since it has no carbs.

I'm also cutting back on cream!!!

Well, I'm going to go eat my dinner and get ready for bed!

Okay, so I'm going to start journaling at night so that I can record my successes and such...

Today was great!!! I cleaned my house for 3 hours, walked for 50 minutes, did the whole Tae Bo Basic tape and 6 min. of Jillian's tape.

I was worn out physically after the Tae Bo and couldn't hang with Jillian tonight...

I really enjoy both workouts and I know they burn tons of calories, and they don't take up too much time...so I really wanna do them both every day.

Since I got too tired to do both tonight, I'm going to do one in the morning and one in the evening after my walks...

I think that'll help keep my muscles from wearing down...

How should I log these exercises??? I've been doing aerobics fast step but Jillian's work out is a combo of high intensity cardio and strength training...

Any ideas or comments???

Oh and I forgot to put on my pedometer this morning, so I put it on at 6pm and since then I've walked 7085 steps, so, I'm positive that I walked well over 10,000 today!

My first day on that program and I succeeded! I figured I'd fall WAY short...I am suppossed to wear it all day right???
