I'm in my fourth week of joining the 30-30-30 weight loss program at my gym. In addition, I'm using sparkpeople.com to track fitness and calories. All while continuing to count my points on Weight Watchers. Apparently I have lost my mind. It sounds crazy, but each is giving me a different perspective about what I'm putting into my body from a nutritional stand point and the gym program is really teaching me to push myself harder when I work out (and HOW to work out properly). Good news is that in 3 weeks I lost 8 pounds. Bad news is that I'm still 6 pounds up from my lowest last year. Making it a total of 26 pounds, not 32. : (.
Five things that I have learned so far:
1. When eating more fiber you must increase your water, because fiber absorbs water. So drink up!
2. I really can run on the treadmill. Now up to 5.5 mph for 1 minute spurts.
3. Zumba really is fun. Love it!
4. Narrowing down the #1 food trigger: work related stress.
5. Finally, I know what my sodium intake is on a daily basis (thanks sparkpeople!)
