It has almost been two weeks on my diet and I am happy to say the pounds are slowly starting to go away!! I started out at a shocking 190 and almost two weeks in I am down to 184.8. This is still not anywhere near the weight I want but I excited to see that the pounds can go away with a little work and dedication.
I have been soda free since starting my diet. The first week was really hard not to have a soda, now that were i in the second week, I have found that it is not a temptation anymore. It is amazing now to look back and see how much I REALLY needed that soda before. My happiness depended on it. I am so glad I kicked that habit.
I have been trying to eat better as well. I still find this hard to do. Sometimes the fresh vegtables and fruits just don't look appealing and I crave the potato chips and dip. I am doing good so far keeping to the good stuff for the majority of the time and allowing myself the couple of chips.
I have faithfully started running again. Pre-Preganacy I ran ALL the time. After having Brenna, I found it hard to make the time to run. I ran here and there but nothing that was consistant. Now, I am making myself get out there with Brenna in the stoller, and run AT LEAST 5 days a week. I can tell that running gets easier and easier everyday and I can run faster and longer each day. My running speed is still nothing to be proud of, but I am glad am out there getting back into it. Brenna loves running time to which makes it super easy for me to get out there and do this everyday. :)
