The last two weeks flew by. I've lost a total of 12.8 lbs. I have been eating healthy, but I feel like I can eat healthier. I need to add more veggies to my meals. I also feel like there are times I come home and I should grab a fruit, but instead grab chips and salsa. My goal for the next few weeks is to add more fruits and veggies.
During the 90 day transformation I decided to stop drinking. I have to say, I've been more productive on weekends. I'm not wasting any days by a toilet bowl or exhausted. I did decide to drink on St. Patrick's day. St. Patrick's day was a blast, but stepping on the scale two days later was not. St. Patrick's day week I lost .8 lbs. That was the worst I have done since I started. I know it was a loss, and I am happy about that. I was just upset because I killed myself at the gym. Makes me think if it was really worth it...
I am starting to take spin classes on a regular basis. It's such a great workout. One spin instructor pushes everyone like I've never seen before. He is very inspirational and I've done things I never thought I can do. I will continue to go to his classes even though I leave with a purple face(so worth it).
This healthy thing is starting to feel really good, especially because I am able to do things I couldn't do on day 90. As embarrassing as it is, I was having trouble tying my shoes, sitting with my legs crossed, walking on the treadmill, and going up a flight of stairs. I can now do those things now and my workout at the gym has becoming more intense each time I go.
Another thing that makes me feel good and keeps me going is all the compliments I've been getting. I feel like 12.8 isn't even that much, but I have had lots of complements from coworkers (who didn't know I was even trying to loose weight) and my roommates. It always feels nice when someone recognizes something that you've been working so hard for.
