So I'm a few days behind on my diet blog.... I relapsed into my old habits, had a pity party, reevaluated what I was doing and now I'm ready to kick some butt!!! This is my post workout meal. Tuna, sauteed (in margarine) spinach and asparagus, a hard boiled egg and 1 granny smith apple. Seasoned with sea salt and fresh cracked pepper.
I told myself that I would only change my eating habits the first week to see if there was a change in my weight, then this week I would combine the healthy eating with working out. I did about 10 minutes of stretching and 20 minutes of cardio tonight.
Just to give myself a perspective of my weight loss, here are some post pregnancy progression pics.
This was the last photo I took while pregnant with Eli. I was at the end of the 8th month. (April 2011)
This is March 2012

This one was taken today. (2/6/13)
I am very happy to say that since I had Eli, I've lost 25lbs. I am currently in a plateau in my weight loss, but I've dropped 4 pants sizes in almost 2 years. I don't have an ideal weight that I want to be, I just want to be healthy. I would be happy just to maintain my current weight, and just tone my abs up but I guess time will tell. Hopefully by this time next year, I'll have something to show for all this hard work. I am determined, dedicated and fully focused on what GOD is doing for me! Like I said in my last blog, it's all about mind, body and soul!!!
