I didn't realize I posted in your gym log before.. but since I am here again...
I can never seem to get in the right state of mind to finish a workout video at home. The Firm videos are especially hard to finish because they become monotonous and I think how that there is no way I can possibly do anymore squats.. please Lord tell that skinny woman to stop with the squats.
I have really noticed that portion control is also key to my success. I suppose that I am lucky that LC treats are not an option for me. My digestive system says no way to the SA's, and is not real crazy about high fiber pasta or tortillas either. I mostly eat eggs, bacon, and cheese for breakfast and fish, meat or chicken with LC veggies or salad at lunch and dinner. I don't get too bored with it, there are lots of options for the main course and lots of ways to dress up a salad differently.
I was just thinking about the difference in the # of calories I consume now compared to what I used to consume in a day. Appetizers, bread, wine, big entree, dessert... I would always get my money's worth in a restaurant. Same thing at home, many times I have eaten seconds ) after snacking while cooking)when DH did not.
Sorry this has gotten long.. final thing... I did not have the tummy tuck. I felt weird about the whole plastic surgery thing anyway, and if I thought there was anything I could have done to improve my bust exercisewise I would have. My tummy and my arms I think can be toned with exercise, and if they cannot, then I don't mind looking like an aging woman with 2 children.
OK... I will get out of your exercise journal so you can record all that great exercise you are going to accomplish over the next few days
Next time I will try to post in your real journal.
Happy Sweating!
