After about three weeks of counting calories I am getting used to it now. I still need to weigh everything but I really don't mind. I am learning something of value.
There are at least twenty recipe books with sticky notes in them lying on my bed. This is my bedtime reading and I love it. I have more than enough recipes now to make up a fabulous menu for dieters coming to my café/art gallery. There will also be Low GI frozen dinners and take-aways with the calorie, carbohydrate and fat counts available for diabetics and slimmers. There is nothing like that in town at the moment so I aim to corner that market, however small or large it may be.
Yesterday's exercise session has left me a little stiff in the shoulders. It was the weights:) No matter. Tomorrow will be aquaerobics in the pool and that always feels so good. It is lovely to feel so weightless. I run on the spot and tread water a lot, pumping my arms, and also do jumping jacks and then swimming in between exercises to get the heart rate up. It is winter here but the water is refreshing and it is never cold for long after starting to exercise. At least I don't feel the sweat.
Today's calorie count was good and I feel great after drinking water all day. My goal weight date is 21 June 2012, winter solstice, and I can just see the party and feel the new dress. Love it. I aim to make a vision board (play like a child) and cut out some great photos and outfits and make a poster for my wall. I can taste and feel the success:))
Go girl go!!!
