The past week has been a tad quiet in terms of my journey,
but not in the madness region.
The noro-she-devil-virus-sickness laid claim to not one, but
3 people in my house…myself included. That was a hell I wouldn’t wish on my
worst enemy. My ribs, stomach and chest muscles took the brunt of the pain from
the evil that is the noro-virus. My daughters and I inadvertently spread the
devil virus love to a few family members that do not dwell in our house (sorry
guys!). Crossing my fingers that it stays far away from my hubs and 9mth old
son. So far, so good!
Tomorrow marks the 25th day of my lifestyle change. Here’s a
short list of changes that I have noticed thus far:
- I have so much more energy than I did before I started…it’s strange, but a good strange.
- I do not feel like I am starving to death.
- My mental clarity is a little better.
- And my favorite…my pants are getting too big. This is a slight problem, but it’s a great problem to have if I do say so myself.
I know there are many more changes that I will notice in the
next few months and I’m excited!
On another note, I found this picture on Pinterest
(ericame3, if you want to follow me) with the caption: 5lbs of fat next to 5lbs
of muscle! This is why you should never allow a scale to determine your fitness
progress…
If you are like me, then visualizations like this will speak
volumes to you. Just because the scales aren’t screaming huge weight loss
numbers, it doesn’t mean you aren’t doing the right thing. Keep on keep’n on.
Until next time…
