Back to It

So eating clean and organic has made me feel like a new person. Not sure if I look like one yet, but I do feel so much better in general. My skin has cleared up some more, which for us ladies is always a plus. My clothes are a little bit looser now that I have added a daily cardio workout this week. I am going to add free weights and Pilate's to this routine next week. I read an article last week that talked about easing into workouts helps you stick to them. For me, this rings true because when I get so sore that I can't move I am glad for the burn but won't workout the following day. Without the routine I will fall back into my old habits of sitting my lazy butt down when I walk in the door.

I have completely given up fast food, almost. I went weeks without eating any type of drive thru foods and believe it or not wasn't missing them. Jay decided that he wanted a greasy meal this week so we took the dogs for a ride in the car to their favorite location, Sonic. I was mentally battling whether or not I should even order anything. I have lost weight and was thinking that I should maybe pass because it could derail all the hard work. On the other hand, I had worked very hard and deserved a treat, right?

It tasted okay. Not as good as I remember, but good. I thought to myself, "I worked out and it's all good". WRONG!!!

My body had other plans after receiving the processed, greasy, fast food. Punish the Meggie. I was so sick for almost 12 hours. Apparently I am like little Austin. Once I am in a rut with my eating habits I have to stay down in it or it is catastrophe. I am back on veggies and fruit mixed in with a little protein now and back on track.

I am all sweaty after a workout while writing to you guys and I feel fantastic. Just thought I would share some of my progress with you.

Until next time, stay cool and eat your veggies
