One month down! 11 more to go!

Hi there,
Sorry to have been radio silent for the last few days, but I had way too many things to juggle and the blog updates had to be pushed back. However, I’m happy to say that I’m one month down in my war against weight gain. Only 11 months more to go! Woohoo!

So what have I achieved in one month? I’m 5 kilos lighter! Naah…I’m kidding. I haven’t seen the scales yet as I’m now doing monthly weigh-ins (next weigh-in is up on Feb 7th), but I have had some success in food discipline. It is a lot easier now to not reach for a chocolate or soda. I like snacking on sprouts and carrots. And I’ve been off chips and crisps for a whole month now. I’ve also managed to stick to portion sizes (which is a lot easier than I thought).

Also, I’ve been able to make time for working out. I spend about 20 minutes on cardio (elliptical/cycle/treadmill) and then jump to the machines (arms & abs on one day, legs, back & abs the next) for 40 minutes. Liz, I know you read this blog: I’m still not falling in love with lunges….:(

And it looks like I’m losing a few centimeters (or should it be millimeters) here and there. So that’s what is happening with me. See you on the 7th with my weigh-in.

Cheers,
Meena
