It is so nice to come here and be with people who really know the struggles that trying to be healthy, can create.
Well my weight loss has slowed from the exercise but I can tell my body is changing. Things are starting to tighten up in certain areas and unfortunately sag in others :-( I can tell it is time to up my game and branch out to something besides the treadmill.
Who knew that losing so much weight would be an emotional rollercoaster ride? Sometimes I look at myself as beautiful and...damn! Sometimes all I can see is how far I have yet to go...I am not young anymore and I am starting to become a bit worried of what I will look like when I am done...
On a lighter note; I finally found a smoothie recipe I can live with. It is amazing and I am getting spinach in EVERY DAY!
1/2 cup coconut milk, 1/2 banana, giant handfull of spinach, scoop protein powder (vanilla, no sugar), chia seeds, and ice. YUM.
On an even lighter note: There is a cute butch who works out the same time as me... She keeps very much to herself and hasn't "seen" me yet but it still makes it easier to go each day...LOL
