As I sit here in my old college library, I'm reminded of my terrible eating habits. I wonder how different college would have been if I had led a healthier lifestyle. Would I have the courage that I have now to try different things and go different places? I like to reflect on the past and change my future. Yep, I'm one of those people.
I started classes yet again and yet again...no time to cook. I have good a good balance though with my meals. When I have time, I cook. I don't cook good things but terrible things. I don't trust myself to eat correctly when I cook. I literally need someone to perfectly measure my meals. When I don't have time, I have a bowl of oatmeal or yogurt with fruit. In the past 3 weeks, I have been extremely conscious of what I put in my body knowing exactly how many calories I have left. I have also notice, I am NOT trend setter. I'm a stealer or borrower, if you will. I don't pave the way for anyone. I'm not creative in my cooking or my workouts BUT I am determined. And if you're trying to lose weight, I'm your biggest fan. I've been there, I've done that. Every FREAKING diet known to man. In fact, I'm doing dietbet.com with a group of girlfriends in which you bet $20 you can lose 4% of your body weight. Well guess what happens when you cut your calories and ACTUALLY pay attention to what you eat? Oh that's right. You lose weight. Which is what I have done in the last 3 weeks. Eight pounds. Shocker.
So I already won which means, this mama is happy. I'd do it again because LORD KNOWS I hate losing money.
Go work out, eat right and god willing, you will lose weight. It's that simple people :)
