Stinging like a bee

It's been awhile again, my bad! So much has been going on sometimes I forget to write it all down! Well, where do I begin??

First I should say, I'm back on my 28 day diet and I'm about half way through. So far I'm down 7 pounds! Which is a great start!! This time it seems to be so much easier than the first! I discovered a way to make super yummy spaghetti!! Not only that, but I found bunny shaped brown rice noodle pasta!! I think the thing I am learning this time, other than how to properly eat, is that to lose weight, I still need to eat ENOUGH.  Even when I was doing Weight Watchers, I don't think I was eating enough points! So, I'm going to stay on this type of eating, even after the 28 days! Add a few things back in like fats and fruits, but good fats, like avocados and olive oils. (Maybe toss in some dairy too!)  Anyway, I think I'm learning more of a life lesson this go round, than a temporary lesson.

As for the fitness aspect, well that has gone down at all, rather bumped it up a couple levels. I started boxing and muay-thai! It's at a gym called Gorilla Fitness. I LOVE IT!! It's so awesome to know that I get to punch the living daylights out of something for an hour everyday if I want!  Not since my workouts with Norman have I come home with so many glory bruises!  I was talking to a couple folks from my bootcamp class (which I still love!!) and I realized that, since Golds closed, haven't I felt like I had another workout family, now I love going again!  When Golds closed one year ago now, I bounced from gym to gym. It wasn't until I found these two places where I feel like I'm really being challenged again and where I have a group of people who encourage me everyday!! That's what I've been missing, and to tell ya the truth, it sucked!!!  Oh, and I should be having my first match in a couple months, so I'll keep you updated on that one!

Well, things are turning around...again! :) Summer is coming up too, which will allow me to get out and get back to running!!  Time to train for that half marathon!!
