Hi Everyone,
Today is the first day of the rest of my life. So, taking challenge in hand, I got up at 6:30 a.m. (voluntarily!!!!), and went down to the gym for 40 minutes of good cardio/conditioning. It was not nearly as hard as I thought it would be : first, because I felt so much better afterwards and second, there are some serious gym types in my building and we are getting to know each other, support each other, and people chat me up and encourage me on. Again, I voluntarily got up that early to do this today! Holy Moly, I am a-changing!
So, yesterday worked out hard with the trainer for 1 hour, today was cardio day on the elevated treadmill, tomorrow morning with the trainer again. I tell you, support is working for me!
I still am trying to find the right process for eating on the road. My bottled water gets too hot in the car, the cold pack bags with the freezer packs in them are warming up in the sun and the food I packed becomes warm and unappetizing by the time I stop for lunch. The summer heat in a locked car is a challenge. I need to find a better system. Maybe I need to get one for those car coolers that run on the car battery. I dunno. But I am sure that there are solutions out there.
All the best to everyone. This is realy and truly life changing, not just a diet (as Jessie said).
Love, Lorna
