weight loss *february*

here is my february weight loss post with pics as promised (sorry it’s a day late)…the pictures are totally horrid as they were taken this morning at around 6:15 and the lighting was terrible…

i managed to lose 15 lbs this month.  i’m not going to pretend it’s this great loss as some of it was weight i had gained back during the holidays. 

i struggled a lot with exercise this month, i really miss getting outside and just walking…i’ve added some weights into my routine along with my cardio and i think i can see a difference in my arms, they seem to be toning up some…

i’m also trying to eat more lean protein and a lot less carbs…one day i tracked my carbs and was SHOCKED at how many i eat!  they were even “healthy” carbs (or so i thought) like oatmeal, fiber cereal, slim fast bars…i had tons of carbs at the end of the day.

i’m also trying to up my fiber.  i hear bob talk all the time on the biggest loser about how important fiber is to weight loss.  we’ll see how that goes.  i’ve realized when one thing isn’t really working how i want it to that it’s ok to switch it up.  for a year i was too afraid to change anything, afraid the change would make me get “off track” and fail…but i’m now comfortable enough to add some change into my journey…

out for now
