Here's the deal with the qoute I chose for my title; it was in the August edition of Shape magazine featuring Jennifer Love Hewitt, a real down to earth gal who proves not all celebrities are stick thin waifers. The reason I chose to qoute Miss Hewitt is because her advice rang so very true for me in my own life. I knew I hadn't been true to my exercise and diet regimen, and when I weighed myself, the fear of gaining that weight I had worked so hard to lose became a grim reality and overwhelmed and dismayed me. I was really bummed out for a couple of days, and it took me awhile to get myself motivated to get going again. Reminding myself that it was a lifestyle choice I had made and not a temporary quick fix plan helped big time. And so did forgetting the weight I'd gained and being obsessed with weighing in all the time!! I just take it one day at a time now, keeping regular meal times, eating no later than 6 pm, (
no snacking! Dum, dum, dum!!!) and being active each day with my hoop for several sessions. Tonight is the first break I have had, and I am enjoying a rare glass of homeade dandelion wine. True to my word, I haven't bought alchohol of any kind since my vacation and that has helped get rid of ugh my chipmunk cheeks I had going on. I feel more svelte than ever and now I am actually looking forward to showing off my toned arms and legs in my costume this Halloween. I even went for a run the other night as well as hooped for a good hour when I got back.
Thanks for keeping me going everyone!!
