Yeah, I know. It's been awhile. And wow, I really fell off the band wagon this time. At this time last year, I was feeling good - I had lost a lot of weight without trying, I was eating less, and I was pretty active. I'm not entirely sure what happened, but around Christmas I started eating more. Gradually I started eating rather unheathily quite often. Plus I stopped being active. Needless to say, the weight has crept back up and I'm not feeling all that great.
So yesterday, even though I ate some cheezies, I decided I was going to try to cut the crap out of my diet again. A lot of things I've eaten I've ended up regretting anyway (they don't taste as good as I think they will). I also went out and spent a small fortune ($40) on fruit today - if I get hungry, I'm going to go and snack on something good for me that I love. Finally, I bought some granola bars and snack packs - if I want something sort of bad for me, this way they're in small, prepackaged form. I was supposed to go camping today, so the snack packs were going to function as the "bad for me treats" for the weekend.
On the exercise front, I'm trying to do something every day. Even if it ends up a really short workout (I have a set of an and arm exercises I've been doing off and on), something is better than nothing. I'm hoping that between the activity and healthier eating I'll be feeling better in no time!
