It's been a long while since I've written. I got some exciting news. Yesterday I went to do my workout and wouldn't you know it I did extremely well. I was able to keep up on the treadmill arms pumping the whole time. I was also able to get 100% on all but the last 3 exercises, but the very last exercise I ended with 100%! Almost a perfect 100 on the smart trainer. So I've been doing a few things different lately and I wanted to share with you. I have been trying to eat even better than before. I've been downing more water, and I've been eating salads, sandwiches, and on weekends I've worked out and also I allow myself to have what I want but typically I can't finish my meals. Trust me I'm a big eater!!!! The other thing I've started is a food log which I know I know everyone says it's what you are supposed to do. Well I think it's great and all and now I understand why people want the nutritional counts on the menu. I am against the nutritional facts on the menu because if you are that conscientious then you should be cooking your own food. That is what I believe even though it may be easier to track if it was there for you. I think if restaurants have the right to choose what they can and can't put on their menus, should not be state governed. Sugar drinks in theater and popcorn and all the junk is what made the movies fun. You have the right to not buy those things. I do think that theaters should offer healthier choices should the customer want something but again you as a customer have a right to just not go. I digress, I have started myfitnesspal app on my android and while it's tough sometimes to find certain things and to upload what you eat I find it interesting how it graphs how you eat, what you eat and how much you are allotted to get to your weight goal. It also has encouraged me to keep going to Koko. So I am guessing by the the end of April I will do a before and after. I've got a long way to go but I want to show that you can see a physical progress, which as slow as it may seem I feel a little bit is just the start of attacking something bigger. I'm not perfect in the way I am doing this and I am not amazing at what I am doing but I have started and hope that this inspires others and I know this is the way I can hold myself accountable for those days I think "not today".... I also want to encourage you, and give you a perspective I haven't found on any other blog with someone doing Koko. I hope this gives you inspiration, and if this helps you to choose to Koko fantastic if not well I hope you will find something that works for you.
