Changes

Life is always full of changes...and boy do I hate change! Well I decided in the last week to become a vegan. So far so good..... The first few people that I told were my trainers, both of them started their reply with why??? Well it's not because I am against eating animals! As long as no one eats by dog or cat I don't care who eats what or how.... I made this decision because the only meat I did eat was chicken....after over a year of only eating chicken it just gets dull and boring. One of my trainers made a very valid point, do you get tired of getting gas in your car? Doesn't matter what your answer is because you have to get it either way and you should think of food as fuel.... He is not really for the whole vegan thing because it lacks quality protein....but the other one said to give it a try. So after thinking and studying a few things I decided to give it a try! One good thing since I started eating fruit again ..... NO MORE CRAVINGS for sweet stuff! 

Plans....

As life goes on you see that plans sometimes fail..... Well I love summer because my son gets to stay up late and we get to hangout more. We go swimming, to the movies and to Carowinds! The problem with summer and "my eating" is that it is so hard to plan! I have done much better for the last week! I am not saying it is easy at all, because that would be a lie... It is really hard. RHEK (the place I workout) was closed for an entire week, I was sure I gained a million pounds but I didn't! I am still doing good. I have 6 pounds that are driving me crazy.... but I mean I still have 56 pounds to be at my goal weight... so for now I will keep pressing on! Crossfit classes start soon so I am certain I will lose those 6 pounds! "Sweat is fat crying!"   

No sugar = no scale!

Sorry I haven't posted in a little while but I had to work almost 60 hours this week, on top of being a mother and dog sitting for a friend! Today is my day off. With that being said it has been a BAD week for exercise and eating.  It started off with me thinking I could eat on the go the whole time and make good choices. Well to start with eating on the go cost way too much! Not to mention that good choices on the go are very slim. Needless to say I have eaten a million salads this week. My best friend is also doing a weight loss eating change as well. She has lost over 30lbs in 6 weeks.... She has an obsession with weighing herself everyday and then I have the obsession with sweets... So we made an agreement, if I eat sugar...she gets to weigh. Sounds dumb to most people, but I see how unhappy she gets if she doesn't lose a pound. So she must see the same thing in me when I eat sweets. So for now I am hoping this will help us both. 

I am not perfect nor have I ever claimed to be. I am me! I am trying to live a healthy life for me!
