Day 2 The key to weight loss is finding what works for you

Today I am feeling pretty good! Cutting out sugar and garbage eating truly increases energy. I was not nearly as sleepy yesterday as I had been the days before. I cut way back yesterday avoiding the donuts so prevalent while I am in Missouri. That was hard friends. Dad loves his latte and donuts every day and sometimes twice a day. 

The key to weight loss is finding what works for you and embracing motivation to change your life I am not looking at how ugly I felt beginning I am only looking at today and those moments within my absolute control. What I did yesterday cannot be changed, but I can control and live in today! 

Yesterday's eating consisted of:

Sugar free Skinny-nonfat Latte (Starbucks)

Grilled chicken and Grilled potatoes

Low-fat 90 calorie Berry Yogurt

45 calorie slice of bread with half a slice of low salt ham (hunger took over before bed and I knew I would not be able to sleep.

Let me say - I am doing this with real food - real living and everyday obstacles. I am not proposing my diet is for everyone (I know what will work for me)! 

I have a very slow metabolism. For this I addressed it with walking 1.5 miles up and down the Ozark hills which I have been doing every single night since I have been here. 

I also ordered a mountain bike I am excited to get when I return to NM. I have not ridden a bike for 20 years so this will be thrilling! Wish me luck. 

I will post a before picture today as well as starting weight and goal. 

God Bless each person who reads this on your own journeys! Losing It Together!
