30 Day Challenge, Weight Loss, and The New Normal


Happy New Years! Okay so I'm only like 3 months late but no need to dwell on the past. So I started on me weight loss journey 2 years ago and in those 2 years I have lost 60+ pounds. I am so proud of myself, definitely patting myself on the back for not only losing the weight but for keeping it off. I mean I went from a 24-dress size to an 18/20. I'm not saying all of this for praise, or to boost my ego but to tell you that I have hit a HUGE brick wall! I am now at the point where I keep losing and gaining the same 8 pounds and it is safe to say it is getting very annoying.  I owe a huge chunk of my weight loss success to Weight Watchers (WW), but a few months ago they changed their tracking system and I still have not adjusted. Only recently have I been able to find inspiration from fellow Watchers who blog/vlog because I feel they finally have figure it out as well.  So now that I have a better idea of how my day in food should look, I can now focus on the other big factor in weight loss . . . Being Active. I TRY to work out at least 3 days a week but lets be honest, after chasing an enthusiastic 3 year old all day, cooking 3 meals a day and snacks, then finally when I get free time that’s when I clean, do laundry, and make sure I get all my assignments done for school. I try to keep my time managed pretty well I have an amazing planner that helps me keep it all together, but when it comes to me being active I always push it off or consume myself with something else. WELL NO MORE!!! In a few days it will be April and that means the beginning on my 30-day challenge which in return will turn into my new normal. In the month of April I plan on applying the new eating methods I found inspiration in and I promise to workout 3 times a week for at least 45 minutes. I will stick to these new habits and will report back with my results on May 1st.  WISH ME LUCK!!!
