Alright girlies... June 1 was the day. I literally said to myself, "Come hell or highwater, I am going to make a change". I started off doing really well in March, and then around my birthday fell off the bandwagon. I cannot stand the feeling in my own skin right now. I just feel... yuck!
So I am starting again, and eating better. The problem is finding time in my schedule... I LOVE sleep, and after work I am so tired, too. What do you find is better, a morning workout before work, or after work/in the evening? I know it is going to be trial & error for me to find something I can stick to, but I am willing to try anything at this point...
Tuesdays are going to be the hardest, bc I have my nephew overnight. However, that elliptical is sitting in my living room, and I think this would be the perfect time to make use of it (as something other than a place to hang clothes).
So here is the plan: Chicken/Salads for Dinner, an English muffin with either PB or butter on it in the morning, 1 c of coffee per day (gotta use the Keuring yet!) then water is it, and for lunch, I am thinking some type of lean cuisine OR chicken broth. I have also looked into the Cabbage Soup Diet, but I am not sure about that yet.
Workout Routine... I need to work on my flexibility and strength, so I was thinking of getting up in the morning and doing either a pilates/yoga DVD I have, or Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred. Then at night I can go for my runs at the gym. Tuesdays I will use the elliptical at night instead of running, and also on Wed mornings, before Woozie wakes up.
Now I just need to hold myself to this... I also took some measurements before and will try and document the progress (to keep myself in check, I don't forsee this turning into a fitness blog quite yet ;)
What are your plans, if any, to feel better about yourself this summer?
