Well, after 2 weeks of consistent excersize and of course cutting out wine, and all things great in the world, some of my baby fat is starting to melt. I started this past week working with a trainer, Brad Bartch is his name. He is a past winning body builder and a passionate fitness guy. What is it with trainers that make them so cheerful about sweating? So we start our little adventure with me stripping down to my shorts and sports bra, so we can get some lovely photos of me, every angle. They like to call thoes the “before” photos. And they are only good, if there is an “after” photo to take. But that’s my goal. Get an after photo that looks different from my before photo. So Brad starts me out on taking these shakes. Protien, fish oils, flax seeds, greens plus… And they are pretty good, but I have come to realize that I really do love food. I love to cook it and I really love to eat it. so instead of doing a few days of just the shakes, I am going to try Breakfast and Lunch with the Shakes and make myself dinner. I will find out in a few days what “Brad” thinks about that idea.
The other idea that came across my desk this week, was from a friend from highschool and he got me onto a green tea called DOMatcha. I have been a big fan of green tea for a long time and know and believe in the benifits. But DOMatch is a concentrated form. So it is like getting 6 cups of green tea in one serving.
The last but not least thing I have been doing this week is working through a book called “Release – A Wilderness Adventure of the soul” by Darren Wride. Find it at http://www.the-life-plan.com/ Awesome book, but what I am finding interesting is how I am avoiding doing the questions he asks in the book. The actual work to discover my path. I just keep putting it off. I will do laundry to avoid it. Now that is denile.
I will keep on keepig you posted. And any and all feedback or experiences are all welcome.
One more thing, if you are interested in picking up a great guide to help you get more accountable this year. I have “Guilt Free Accountability” on sale at a very low price of $19.97 go to www.lindaedgecombe.com/store.php a savings of $30
