Calories - 850

Exercise - Jillian Michael's Yoga 45 minutes

Water - 80 ounces

Today was a good day. I love good days. No, I cherish good days. I look back on them and think about the times when I was strong and they end up strengthening me. They really are what I thrive on when I try to lose weight. I did have temptations come up like... "Maybe I should get some Oreo's," or "I think a shake for lunch sounds good," but I pushed them it out of my head just as quickly as it came in. I remembered what I felt like when I was younger and leaner and yearn for times when I didn't feel like I was wearing a body suit. I drove myself today. I was so motivated that I didn't question working out. I think I was a little too motivated though because I hardly ate. I thought I was doing perfect through out the day and wasn't really paying attention until I looked at my total at the end of the day. I was surprised and kind of disappointed that I didn't eat enough today. But lesson learned and I will pay closer attention tomorrow.

I did keep track of my water today! I am pretty proud of my 80 ounces. I also liked today because me and my husband made up a grocery list of mostly produce to help us in our new healthy lifestyle. Then I went online and looked up some recipes for some healthy lunches and dinners we could make. I was mostly stuck on this site. I liked that she had recipes to relate to some of your favorite dishes at restaurants, but far healthier. I also liked that she introduces you to products on the market that are trying to help you lose weight. It makes you feel like someone in the food industry would like you to succeed. So today was really a preparation day for the new life ahead of me. I'm excited for this new point of my life where I am finally becoming the Tazia that I have always wanted to be.
