Hey,
I went to my Smart Barre class 5 times last week! I had good intentions to walk 3 miles on Saturday and again on Sunday, but those plans fell through. I am not going to make excuses because that is what they would be, just excuses. The same thing happened with my eating habits. I ate healthy and drank water all week, but on Friday night good things went straight downhill. Pizza, shrimp étouffée, fast food hamburgers, and Mexican food were consumed along with my adored coca cola and limeade Oreos. Limeade Oreos are so good! They taste like Key Lime Pie.Weekends make it too easy for my bad habits to resurface. I need to stop making excuses on the weekends and work on my new habits of exercise and healthy eating.
I am enjoying my Smart Barre classes. I call them my daily dose of torture treatment, but I actually feel better after class! I have noticed a difference in the strength of my arms and legs. I still have no abs! Unhealthy eating on the weekends is not helping. I also noticed that during the week (when I was drinking water) I stayed hydrated. As soon as I started back with my coca cola habit I was dizzy and nauseated. I was very thirsty, even though I had been drinking cokes all day. I was definitely dehydrated!
These are lessons that are simple and need to be learned. Exercise helps us have more energy and water keeps us hydrated. These things help us to feel better! I must remember the simple things and make NO EXCUSES for bad behavior.
This week's plan - Smart Barre classes, water, fruit and lean meat. I still can't stand most vegetables, though. I am going to have to work on that. Do you have any vegetables that you like? If you do, please share. Thanks.
Bye y'all,
Becky
