View CELAWLOR's food & exercise for this day
Ahhhh, I can walk in almost no pain, now. Still hurts a little to squat or bend over, but I can definitely live with that! Perhaps I will be all better tomorrow? Now THAT would be nice.
I am finding myself consistently only wanting healthy foods in relatively normal portions. I feel like I have turned a corner in this lifestyle change thing. Today, I believe, marks exactly four months since I started back to the gym and started changing my eating habits and learning about food and portion sizes. It is also my anniversary and I forgot until just now. Oops, better call prince charming.

Betcha he forgot, too. LOL.
Anyway, I have lost about 45 - 50 lbs in those four months. I've also shrank somewhere around 24 inches in that time. Through a job loss, a job gain, living in a hotel, traveling back and forth for three weeks, a relocation, and problem tenants I have managed to keep this up and not revert to my old ways. I will officially call them dead at this point. If they did not resurrect through the stress of the last 60 days, they aren't revivable! A memorial service will NOT be held in their honor as they will not be missed. No one liked them, anyway.
Logging my food has become a chore and very difficult to keep up with. I used to LOVE LOVE LOVE logging. I seem to have been doing very well without it for a while so I think I am going to give it up for an undefined period of time. I have discovered I can trust my body, under normal circumstances. I will keep fine-tuning that skill until I can do it under any and all circumstances. That is the only way for me to succeed long-term. Our bodies are pretty smart, I have found. We just have to work at over-coming the cultural, psychological and emotional aspects of eating and tune into our body's biological signals.
Anyway, off to a busy day today. I get to go onsite and train this morning. Too bad I haven't even looked at the application I am supposed to be trining on, eh? LOL. I should stop messing around and go do that.
