New Routine

Yesterday I bought a Jillian Michaels DVD. It has alot of kickboxing on it. I was starting to get a bit bored with my routine since I’ve been doing the same thing for seven weeks. It was quite a workout but I loved it!!

Seems lately I’m wanting to eat more food. I know it’s because I’m working hard and my body needs the energy food provides. I’m still getting over the fact that eating more food when it’s healthy is OK. Example today: I had a veggie burger on Ezekiel bread, mustard, tomatoes, sprouts, pickles on the side with orange slices and 2 bottles of water. To me it seemed I was pigging out, but it’s good food and I was honestly hungry. This is where relearning to eat has been the biggest challenge. On a “diet,” I was taught you have to starve. My doctor told me I needed to increase my food intake in order to lose weight. This sounded ridiculous at first, but not anymore! Alright I’ve babbled enough now. Onto some awesome news!!

I lost another pound!! It’s so nice to see 240something instead of 250something.

    somebody gets a woo hoo!

    I had that happen to me, the voracious appetite after a workout- its normal, dont worry about it so long as you make good choices. i used to get protein cravings initially. love ezekiel bread. if your going to eat anything, a veggie burger and ezekiel bread with lots of veggies is a good choice. - put ezekiel bread in the microwave for about 10 sec to warm it up, man the smell is awesome.
