Okay, I was looking at my last few posts and realize I really am not portraying the right picture of myself! I see that I began a couple posts about an "8 week challenge." It looks as though I gave up and never completed them because I didn't blog about it.
Not true!
I did complete the challenge. In fact, I won the challenge!
There was a little pot of money involved and that was fun :)
I wound up finding myself eating sugary treats only once a week - which is huge for me.
I also found I had a little more energy than before. The energy part took a few weeks to kick in.
I was pretty low on energy when I first began. My goal with this 8 week challenge was to go all out crazy and start a new work out routine and start eating healthier and avoid sugars. I needed to start with one newly focused habit; or I knew I would not succeed.
My goal was to just to focus on what I ate.
It was awesome. I lost weight and gained a new happy habit in return.
After the eight weeks I decided to incorporate working out.
This was just one new habit. After all, I had already been settled into a new eating plan that was going well. It was time to keep the upward momentum going.
My body was happy, I was happy. I'm not sure that I was actually accomplishing much more on a day to day basis. I felt good on a day to day basis. Not sluggish, energetic. Ready for bed.
That was/is so important to me.
I wanted to follow-up on this, because the strides I made during that time - are notable.
