After 4 days of paying more attention to what I eat and trying to get in more activity, I am down 4 1/2 lbs. WOOHOO! I didn't count the first day because in the evening I went bonkers with the ice cream, but this does count the 7 cookies I ate on Tuesday and the greasy quesadilla I had last night, plus I should be starting my period any day now and feel bloated. Surprised and happy by the weight loss and still focused with staying balanced. It is tempting to get really strict with the diet or working out to get results faster or even taking pills or some other miracle plan to lose the weight, but I am determined to not go that route since it never holds in the end. I want to maintain a balance between being a mommy, working hard for the school district, taking care of my home and husband, enjoying my family and friends, and taking time for myself with planning my food, scheduling time for work outs, and pampering myself every now and then. I feel accomplished this week with doing all of this and also getting results and staying happy the whole time through all the stress and busy life.
How did everyone else's week go? Any new recipes or meal ideas? Feel free to share :)
