You can do this, Yolanda.
Ste...Thanks everyone! <br /><br />You can do this, Yolanda. <br /><br />Stephanie, that's true. I also find that the glass of water after my meal makes me stop craving another helping.<br /><br />Madilyn, you're right, but even if I lose slower later on, I'll still be happy simply for living a healthier life. I'm not really sacrificing anything that I'm not used to here, so I'm not really struggling with will-power or anything like that. It's really just me shaking some bad habits that snuck in months ago already. I hope you find an exercise buddy! :-)Misha Gerrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06364173848456424521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312704287427589698.post-57961909267589318042015-08-30T20:59:32.357+02:002015-08-30T20:59:32.357+02:00Congrats on your success and I hope it continues o...Congrats on your success and I hope it continues on! It tends to be that the first week when people start changing their eating/exercise habits, they loose a lot and then it goes down from there, which can be discouraging. Stick with it! Eating better and exercising is definitely worth it in the long run :)<br /><br />With me, I've devote at least a mile of walking a day, plus I've cut my portion sizes down to about half and most meals I make now do not have meat (I'll have it maybe 2-3 times a week). I haven't really dropped any weight, but I feel a lot better and have noticed toning. I need to find a partner to exercise with though because on my own is no motivation, I've tried lol<br /><br />Sorry for the long post! But anyway, good luck! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312704287427589698.post-68781482872459459652015-08-30T19:16:26.265+02:002015-08-30T19:16:26.265+02:00Way to go, Misha!

They just came out with another study that showed that drinking a glass of water 30 minutes before each meal can help you lose weight. It gives you the feeling of being fuller, but it also hydrates you. If you are dehydrated, you feel hungrier than you actually are.Stephanie Farishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10461865229341760836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312704287427589698.post-22604452047016888762015-08-29T18:26:37.040+02:002015-08-29T18:26:37.040+02:00Love you determination!
