Its the most BIZARRE thing ....

ok so get this.....

when I was obese and unhealthy all I thought about doing was eating.

Now that I am trying to get straightened out all I think about is eating.

Now granted before it was a no brainer, I ate whatever, whenever!!
Which is how I got to be 280lbs.



But now...



I have to think about things. Plan.. Decide...Choose!!

Plan my meals in advance.

Decide to eat the right foods.

Choose a better lifestyle.




Its just the craziest thing to me that I have to think this much.



Its making more sense to me now, but who woulda thought that someone who just wanted to lose weight would have to get to know food alllllllllllllll over again.

I do have to say that it feels pretty good to know whats going into my body now
and what its going to do for me.

so enough of my blah blah blah.. just had an AHA moment. :)

A MUST HAVE!!

so this is my new FAVE gadget!!
I got this a week ago and I totally love it.
Its the Polar F6 Womens Heart Rate Monitor.
Records your heart rate, calories burned, exercise time and probably so
much more I dont even know about yet.
I am telling you what though... this little pink beauty pushes me to a whole new level.
Its like I am in competition with this watch!!
Every workout I try to push myself just that much further and harder.
If you dont already have one.. .I highly recommend getting one.
Many many brands out there. New Balance, Nike etc..
I chose this one because my trainer has one and was able to help me set it up.
awesome.. awesome ....awesome!!
