I also drink about 60% juice and 40% water in the mornings to cut down on my typical juice/sugar. I am glad you have a nice place to walk. I have been going to the gym. I just know that my diet needs much better discipline. Glad to hear you sound optimistic - Blondie! :)Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14311226749873684343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189986795934088833.post-2178222113009239482011-03-22T10:29:06.844-07:002011-03-22T10:29:06.844-07:00Did you take measurements in inches?

I lowered the intake to 1 can a day and if I am going to drink more than 1 , I better get on a treadmill or a bike for at least half an hour. <br />I hope you are in high spirits. We all can do this with a bit of motivation. =) Lots of love<br /><br />DreamDreamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08239007763325563051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189986795934088833.post-14242403827988374462011-03-22T06:06:46.621-07:002011-03-22T06:06:46.621-07:00Yay on the lbs lost!!!

Congrats and I hope we can do the same Candie =) <br /><br />@ Blondie<br />Eating too many fruits will not help and lots of water intake is a must. When I lost 80 lbs in 4 months before I was on a at least 1 hr cardio (get on the treadmill and walk face paced) and eat only couple of pieces of fruit a day along with lots of salad and grilled items. <br />Eating food that burns each other helps immensely. <br />Good luck ladies, I am back from the sickness land so I hope I can be more active on the blog now. <br />Hugs<br /><br />DreamDreamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08239007763325563051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189986795934088833.post-26390829216982702832011-03-22T06:01:43.349-07:002011-03-22T06:01:43.349-07:00yay for spring! energy sounds great!yay for spring! energy sounds great!Dreamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08239007763325563051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189986795934088833.post-26167606780835967342011-03-21T08:24:03.005-07:002011-03-21T08:24:03.005-07:00Don't get discouraged!
What kind of work out...Don't get discouraged! <br /><br />What kind of work out are you doing? Cardio? Are you drinking enough water? After workouts your muscles try to hold on to water to help heal so you may have some water weight. <br /><br />What kind of diet are you doing?<br /><br />CandieCandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05622090275709347222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9189986795934088833.post-88069677669404837732011-03-20T09:18:28.371-07:002011-03-20T09:18:28.371-07:00I am having a rough week.

I am still loading up on veggies and fruits - but probably not enough protein. I cheated and weighed yesterday although my official day is Tuesday - and I have gained almost a pound back in 4 days. :0( - I don't know how to not be discouraged. I have been exercising for 6 weeks and "dieting" for 2 weeks.

Most of my carbs are fruit although I do usually have a pita a day. I can definitely feel my addiction to them lessening.

Last week, I did so well eating fresh fruits and veggies - but suffered greatly from trying to remove carbs from my diet. I decided to add them back this week and try to make healthier choices. I feel better - but don't feel like I am eating as well as I should. I plan to hit the gym hard a couple times before weigh-in next Tuesday. Definitely not expecting a great loss. Keep up the great work and positive attitude.
