197 lbs!!! Very Nice...

Making Progress.

Wooohoooo!

I started out at 216 lbs. I am now at 197 lbs.

Its been about a month.

How does that happen?

Like I said earlier, not by dieting (I think that's extremely unhealthy), nor by working out like crazy (gradual physical activity within moderation is preferable), but by mentoring physically fit people that I know.

What does that mean?

I try to behave exactly the same way a physically fit person behaves.

A healthy lifestyle is encouraged by making better choices that are in line with the way a fit person behaves.

Instead of opting for the junk food and highly processed white flour food products, choose water rich foods instead.

I am by confession, an emotional eater. LOL.

But it's true.

Hiding out in a bag of chips cause I feel down and out can be gratifying in the moment, but the consequenses are heavy. No pun intended.

Ever tried emotionally eating an apple? I don't know why, but no matter how hungry I am, I can't eat more than one apple in a sitting. It's as though it's got a built in gage to prevent me from over indulging.

I can emotionally eat 3 bags of chips and not even bat an eye.

Little choices such as these make a world of difference.

I will keep you posted.
