Week 1

I have now been working out faithfully for one week and so I thought I would update my stats. I am now 119.4 lbs and my measurements haven't changed at all. I need to keep focused b/c I am an instant gratification type person and not seeing any loss in measurements is a little discouraging. (Especially b/c that is where I want to see results.) I realize that it has only been one week, but I can't help it. So, I was chatting with my mother-in-law this morning and she was telling be about a diet called The Belly Fat Diet. Essentially, when you eat sugar, your insulin level spikes and takes away from your bodies ability to burn fat stores. That being said, I am going to try to incorporate that philosophy into my whole foods diet to see if consuming less sugar helps melt the fat away... Wish me luck!

  2. Thanks Rachel, I am really trying to stick to the whole, all natural foods and stay away from animal products. I really feel that I will be healthier in the long run if I don't put some of those things in my body. If it gets to the point where I am gaining weight, then I will definitely look into that ~ Thanks for the tip!
