I made it!

Ok, so it's only been one day, but hey, that's a great thing for me.  I need to take it one day at a time and I will succeed.  I was able to stick to the diet for day 1 and now we are on to day 2.  Yesterday I walked Syd to school (1 mile) and then in the afternoon I did intervals.  I found a guide for being able to run for 30 minutes....it has me doing run/walk intervals for 40 minutes.  This week I warm up for 5 minutes, then run for 2 minutes/walk for 3 minutes and repeat that 6 times.  Then finish with a 5 minute cool down walk.  Each week you ramp up the running until you can run for 30 minutes straight.  Today I am going to do Tae Bo or else my circuit training workout that I found on Womenshealth.com.  I really need to do the circuit training because it has strength training exercises in it.  We shall see.

We are going to an Orioles game tonight, so I am praying that I can resist the temptation of ballpark food!

It's Fat Smash Time Again!!

I have been eating whatever I want for about a month now, trying on and off to get back on the Fat Smash Diet. It hasn't been working. Today, that is all going to change!! I am starting the diet again, and I think what I am going to do is be on it for 1 week and off 1 week, and so on and so forth. I've noticed that while I have been off the diet, I have maintained my weight, which is a good thing, but I haven't lost anything either. :( Sooooo.....

I have been pretty faithful with my workouts though, and I'm sure that is what has kept me from gaining. The good news is, I feel that once I get all the weight off, I will be able to keep it off. Hallelujah!
