You can work out until the cows come home, but until you are ready, willing, and able to radically change your diet YOUR BODY WILL NOT CHANGE.
I spent the most time I ever spent at the gym and took up running on top of that yet all I did was "watch" what I ate. I still had the occasional cocktail. I thought that by hitting the gym & running that I would not only negate that, but also lose weight ... NOPE.
Tons of hours GONE. Thousands spent on a trainer, GONE. It wasn't until I FINALLY listened to my trainer and followed her diet regimen that I started to see major change. So, if you are not ready to do that.... keep hitting the gym, keep up with your walking, running, etc. It's good for your heart. But, don't expect to come swimming out of your clothes.
And this thought deserves a post all by itself.
If you are interested in getting a sample weekly menu... let me know.

I'd be interested in a sample menu if you have one put together! I admire you Viv; you work hard, take care of your babies, and seem to just be able to fit everything in! I struggle with finding time for "me" in this crazy time of working like mad, raising little ones amd keeping up with all of their activities. I think I just need to have a mental shift and rearrange my priorities a little bit to just find a wee bit more time to fit in the things I heed to do just to keep healthy!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love this... And you're so right! A lot of people that kill it in the gym and don't realize you make your body at the dinner table,, not the gym, stay frustrated! Bravo! So proud of you!
