It wasn't until 50 pounds lost that I l did an after picture. Please take pictures of yourself as you go through this process (you only have to share them with yourself) - It was so nice to see the difference and to know that all this hard work was actually working and noticable.

Yikes! I missed a day of reporting, so here is a double whammy.
March 14 - Day 12/75
❌ Food - Oh dear. I was away from home most the day, and it did not go well...
✅ No alcohol no problem
✅❌ Exercise - Two workouts: 1strength-1 aerobic. One good kettlebells workout. But no aerobic work - just a bit of walking.
✅ Reading - something helpful at least 10 minutes per day. Some really good stuff!
✅ Water - OK
✅ Thoughts - Being "on the road" and having to find things to eat often turns into good meals followed by terrible snacks. I have yet to find an infallible plan for that! Not sure there is one, but I'll keep trying!
March 15 - Day 13/75
✅ Food - Back on track. Skipped breakfast - after eating all the things until late last night, who needed it! Then 2 sane and reasonable meals.
✅ No alcohol no problem
✅ Exercise - Two workouts: 1strength-1 aerobic. Pilates and exercise bike.
✅ Reading - something helpful at least 10 minutes per day. Yep!
✅ Water - OK
✅ Thoughts - My exercise sessions are migrating more towards morning, and this is good! I have tried for a long time to get the intentional strength workouts done earlier in the day, and then I enjoy tacking on extra aerobic exercise in the evening while watching a video of some kind. 10 miles on the bike is the usual amount. I am feeling good getting the strength work done earlier, which leaves more time to cram the afternoon with all kinds of activities.

So, yesterday I completely went off the rails! The only part of my plan that I did correctly was walk 2.5 miles.
So, I’m starting all over again!
Today is Day 1 of 62 for me.
My 62 Day Medium Plan:
• Follow my 10K Training Plan - I’m switching to the lower training plan since the miles are getting a bit high for my body with the advanced plan I was following.
• Follow the Diet Plan I have chosen for myself.
• 8+ glasses of water.
• No alcohol.
• Read about my diet plan for at least 15 minutes per day to keep me motivated.

On a good note: I took my measurements this morning and in the first two weeks of this challenge I’ve lost 6.25 inches 😀🎉2
