diet progress
So.. so far so good!
I've given up my morning bagel, and given up soda (except for the occasional diet grapefruit). I've been waking up early almost every morning (so far!) to exercise in the apartment's gym. I finally lugged my free weights upstairs and will hopefully start a routine with those as well. I do planks and crunches daily before bed. I monitor everything that I eat thanks to SparkPeople.com (which is essentially a free version of WeightWatchers), as well as track my exercise program. Still no visible weight progress (but it is still super early) (and thanks to my signing up on the site back at the beginning of December B4 the holiday food frenzy, I have about 5 pounds to go just to get back to my start weight.. eesh). Anyways, it's been tough, and I'm still learning to ignore my hunger. It's just something that I'll always have to work on.
Tonight there is dinner with Jeff's cousin Diane who is here from New Zealand, so that should be fun and interesting. I'll just have to split my meal in half so I don't cheat!
but yes.. back to work!
