Backslidden :(

Oct 12, 2010

Well, since my last post on 7/3, I didn't exercise and slipped back into some really crappy eating habits and drinking too much.  So, I've started back with my trainer and I'm in my 3rd week and am feeling really good.  My fitness/cardio level has really taken a nose dive, but I'm on the right track to get that back up again. 

The weight training, I think, is really helping.  I know that muscle burns more calories and revs up your metabolism.  So I'm glad to be back to that again.  My shoulders are already changing!  Whoot Whoot!!!

The eating thing, I'm really glad that I realized what  I was doing. Those evil processed carbs. Carbs aren't the enemy, but the processed carbs are. I think I'll post to my blog once a week to keep myself accountable.  My ankles have really been swelling and I think that most of the 8-9 pounds that I've gained is water weight (well, at least 3 pounds of it).  I started taking a water pill today and dropped 3 pounds already and my ankles are not swollen anymore.

So here's to another new start and to realizing that I was really screwing up and for realizing that I was doing it before it got away from me!  I'm not going to drink another adult bev until halloween either!
