    june 7th, i am only really proud that i ate under my cals.ate super healthy for the most part. turned down fries at montana's and got corn instead.

    i didn't even take my puppy for a walk :(.

    but today will be better

    june 8 success:

    i already did most of the challenge i posted, i just need to do my 10 minutes of cardio and 20 more lunges and 15 more step-ups. i even attempted the 5 push ups, though i couldn't do a full single one. i guess i will just have to toughen up. hopefully by the end of the week i can master it.

    WTG ~ turning down fries deserves a big pat on the back. with exercise every bit counts ~ do what works for you and what you love or enjoy the most

    June 8 Successes

    I picked up a banana, lemon and coleslaw bag before heading out to join my husband at the cabin. I ate the banana on the way. My husband whipped up spaghetti but i had my sauce over cabbage and said no to garlic toast. He also had a cheese cake and wanted me to have some. He is a big dessert lover and I said no then he said how about a sliver and I said okay to that and had the smallest sliver didn't eat the crust and savoured the flavour in my mouth. It was delicious and just the right amount.

    I was going to take the day off exercise but love being at the cabin and wanted to have one glass of red wine by the fire so I went for a 6 km run along the lake and when I came back got my kayak out and went the same direction on my kayak. Caught the sun setting abit on the way back. I enjoyed my glass of wine. I want to live not in depravation but learn to say no sometimes, postpone eating, make a better choice and to stay in a calorie zone that will keep me healthy and fit 4 life ~ it is a lifestyle 80 % healthy whole foods in the right portion size is my lifestyle goal.

    starting phase 2 cleanse

    Amazing record and getting out three times. Doesn't it feel great when you make a conscious effort to do the right thing.
