Week 2: BRING ON THE CHALLENGE!

So I have started my new challenge: work out every day. This week I want to work out every day to keep up my metabolism and help get in shape as I eat better. I have still been going with the Weight Watchers program and I lost 3 lbs this week!!! Every little bit counts: small victories add up to large ones. I think losing weight helps people learn perseverance and patience.  Lord knows its a lot of hard work to lose a few pounds but I slowly added these pounds on, so I guess it makes sense. 

Eating healthy is a challenge when you are on the run like me. It is easy to stop by and get a drink or a quick snack when you are on the road. So this week, I made it a point to bring healthy snacks with me and snack a little during the day. Healthy snacks, like a handful of peanuts, popcorn with no butter, low fat yogurt, etc. Drinking lots of water really helps keep you filled up and I fill like my body works better.  My skin is more clear, my nails are stronger, and "regularity" is important. LOL. 

So maybe my goal can be another few pounds this week. Guess we'll see......

  1. Yea Christian! 3lbs is awesome-keep it up. Making small changes will help you maintain what you've lost and then lose more.
