Today was interesting to say the least. I woke up with another headache from the withdrawal. Luckily it was gone by the afternoon. I am starting to notice more energy and already have a healthy feeling. It was a long day at work but I managed to eat most of the things I pack in my cooler bag. I had a protein shake for breakfast before I left. I didn't get a chance to have my morning snack. I had my salad with tuna and lots of vegetables for lunch. For my afternoon snack I had 1/2 cup cottage cheese and 2/3 cup of peaches. For dinner my very helpful husband cooked up some Sole and I had my 4oz of yams on the side with half of my plate filled with mixed vegetables.
I decided to do just dance for my cardio tonight. I LOVE to dance! I had a good sweat going for 45 minutes. I added some weight lifting and some lunges after that. I wanted to be ready to go for tomorrow night. I have my first appointment with my trainer at 6pm. I am hoping to get comfortable enough to do the group classes. They are doing them outside now in a giant sand box.
It is truly amazing how I can change my whole lifestyle so drastically when a competition is added to the mix. I am not going to be the one who transforms the least. I want to be the best transformation yet! I definitely have a competitive side, which must have come from all my years of ringette, hockey, soccer, swimming, and basketball. I hope to get back to the point when I can play sports with my husband and enjoy myself.
Here's to all the overweight people out there who try and try again. Every try truly counts. We can do it! It may mean missing out on your husbands birthday ice cream cake on Wednesday, but it will be worth it. To be honest, now I am a little afraid of having sugar. I don't want to go through the withdrawal symptoms again. Hopefully, they will all be gone soon. Keep your heads up!
