So I blogged awhile ago about starting Turbo Jam and how much I enjoyed it. Well, i still do! It continues to be a great workout and I can feel myself getting stronger and tighter. Today I finished week number 4 of working out 5-6 times a week. Last week I finally got a measuring tape and measured myself and can't wait to re-measure each week and see if i'm losing inches. This week I was not so good with healthy eating so I'm not sure I will have lost any, but I'm about to go check. While researching diets, workouts and meal plans I came to the conclusion that any program I choose has to be a way I can live forever. For instance, I will never go on a yogurt only diet...because as soon as I quit the yogurt I'd go back to eating the way I did before and gain all the weight back! What changes I make have to be a way that I stick to and live with from now on. We've been doing very well with portion control at meals and eating more vegtables. I continue to struggle with soda, sweet tea and cookies. ack! It's so dumb of me to work out so hard and then blow it when I see my fav. cookies at the commisary on sale for $1.99. However, each change I make and day that I eat healthy is an improvement and I'm continuing to work on it.

way to go! i agree about implementing changes that you can live with "forever"...although be nice to yourself - i think part of the fun of eating and living healthy is that when you occasionally need a cookie or a sweet beverage to jazz things up, you can do so guilt-free because you know 95% of the time you give your body what it needs. everybody needs to splurge and have a special treat as a reward for all that hard work.
