boy do I feel healthier

You know, I have been told not to worry so much about the scale but to focus on the exercises and the new meal plans. The loss of inches can tell more that pounds lost. Today, I am just amazed about how I feel. After hard workouts or just a long day, I feel healthier. I breathe easier, I have more energy, and I am up and about. My way of life has made a significant turn and I am okay with it. So for all of you out there, here is to feeling and looking healthier. I know I have added years to my life. How many more years do you think you are adding on to our life?

road block

Last week was another weigh in and measurement day. I was so sad to find out that I gained two pounds and added four inches. How is that possible? I was in a slump Thursday and Friday and found it hard to exercise or eat like I know I should have. It wasn't until Saturday that I started to come around somewhat. I don't think I am over the fact that I gained. It is these times that made me not want to start a program. I don't like to admit lack of progress. This is hard for me and I hope I can shake it off completely....soon.
