week 39

weight 134

All is well over here.... still doing my thing.  My thing is as follows : I am working out 5 days a week, making healthy meal choices, lots of whole grains and veggies. My weight has been 134 for the last few days... don't know whats up with that but it could have something to do with the box of Godiva Chocolates I have been eating with Liv ; ) I have a wicked sweet tooth. I could stand to eat less sugar overall. My daily yogurts for instance are sweet ( greek oikos or chobani) ... I don't care for the taste of artificial sweeteners and plain yogurt is just not for me. I also snack on  fiber bars, belvita bars, luna bars, granola bars which are also sweet. I do not drink soda so that is good.. but I do take 1 teaspoon of sugar in my cup of coffee. Baby steps.. the last nine months on the journey have taught me to appreciate the good things I have changed.... daily exercise, whole grains, no more fast food and not stress over my little caveats.


I am still making good food choices otherwise.I have run out of  My 1st step wellness triple chocolate protein powder, so I have been slacking on my protein shakes. I have some muscle milk banana creme protein powder and while it's ok.. I prefer the taste of the 1st step wellness brand. The muscle milk brand seems to have lots of additional vitamins & stuff and seems to be tailored to more serious body builders. It has an aftertaste that I don't appreciate.I can't wait for spring and to be able to workout outside again.. while I enjoy the treadmill over outdoor running, I enjoy the variety and sunshine.  I want to redo the couch to 5k outside.. train my body to adjust to outdoor running. Winter blahs over here for sure.. spring can't come soon enough.


so who is still following me here? I know readership is down a little...so I would love to know who has stuck it out with me for the long haul?
