as a few might know, i have just finished (as of tonight, actually!) the ymca's team challenge. i lost a total of ten pounds and couldn't be happier. it was worth every cent that i paid. i learned so much and have finally become accountable for all the good and bad foods i put in my mouth.
my friend, nina, and i will be doing another
team training with our trainer, bryan. if you're interested, please let me know! we'd love to have you!
here is a small list of things that helped me lose that ten:
- eat foods with good amounts of fiber
- aim to drink between 60-80oz of water each day.
- calorie counting (switching it up each day...high/low/baseline days)
- consistent regular exercise each week (2 days - weights/cardio, the rest...cardio)
it's amazing the difference it all made. i'd been exercising a lot, and running, for years. but i didn't lose much, nor could i get my body to where i wanted it (which was just where i could feel happily comfortable). it was the
food that made the difference for me. it's definitely going to be a life change for me. plus, i want to take care of this body that heavenly father has given me. i'm grateful every day.

Congratulations! I totally agree about food being the difference, now if just wasn't such a weakness for me. Good luck.
That's so awesome. I wish we lived closer and not on the other side of the country and we could work out together! That's seriously such an awesome accomplishment! You go girl!
Do I have to live in Cali to do it?
You're a sweetheart and an inspiration. Congratulations to you! Our bodies and this beautiful world we live in are certainly the most amazing blessings!
Stace- they might have a ymca near you that is doing it...check it out!
Karlie- where did you guys move? it IS a bummer we can't work out together!
