Diet & Excercise

[GoddessDigi]

I think, by letting people know I am on a diet and an exercise regimen, that it might help me actually DO it, y'know?

So, my goal is to lose 5 inches by mid-May.
Now that everyone knows, I HAVE to do it, right? lol

I'm not doing too bad, I've been doing 7-10 minutes of the 20 minute express Zumba (I just do it when DS naps, but DD is up), but I try to do that 2-3 times a day (just started 4 days ago).

Good luck!

Wahoo! Goodluck with it! And yes, sometimes accountability helps and any bit of movement more than you are doing now is good, so keep it up!

Good Luck!!

Sounds like a good start so far, slowly going up the "stairs" on achieving your goal.

Once you get into it, you'll be doing it everyday and wanting to do it if you miss a day since you'll be getting use to it

Good Luck!!!!

I've been doing nothing since Summer..Winter and I don't get along. =/
I used to walk at least an hour a week. So, yes, this is a major improvement lol.

Thanks.

There are a bunch of us encouraging each other on, in the "Health" section...and yes, it certainly does help! Good luck!!

[GoddessDigi]

Where's the Health section??
I've yet to go in there, lol..

Looks like you were magically transported right where you belong, lol....We're here for each other....head over to the Weight Watchers or Pink Diet threads...you'll see we're all fighting the fight and winning (most days, anyway)..

I'm not doing so good today.
My lunch was SUPPOSED to be a banana split with DD (because my dinner is a larger meal, so I try to do smaller for lunch..), but here I am, snacking on apples. =/
It's an apple, so it's okay...>.>

[Lynn49]

LOL...MUCH better than a banana split!

I have an apple snack many evenings...I slice it up into chunks, drop a tbsp or so (who's looking??) of Splenda Brown Sugar on top, sprinkle with cinnamon and nuke for a minute or so until as soft as you like it to be and voila! An angelic snack that tastes sinful!
And...no ice-cream, please...

[GoddessDigi]

Oh no, I mean a banana that I split, as in share, lol. xD

[Lynn49]

Whew! I wondered what kind of diet THAT was and would have required all the details!!!

[GoddessDigi]

If there were a diet that involved banana splits (a LOSE weight diet, not gain lol) I'd be all over it.
I just realized we have icecream in the freezer..I think it's time to Zumba, so I'm not tempted!
(3rd time for the day :D Doing pretty good!)

Oh, and I've already lost a whole inch!! (Maybe 2, but DH isn't sure he measured correctly, but at least 1.)

great job!!! remember you can eat as much raw veggies as you want... I really like snap peas... If you get them (veggies) ready (cut and in containers) as soon as you unpack groceries, it makes it easy to grab and snack on!!

keep it up!!!! It's a great way to gift yourself to a better way of life
