It has been almost 2 full months since I've blogged or even done my shakes. I got really sick right after Thanksgiving and had to quit doing the shakes! It was absolutely awful but I am happy to report that my doctor gave me the go ahead to start back on my shakes. Going without them was absolutely awful. My energy level was just in the dirt and I wasn't sleeping as good! I am so glad to be back on them!
In the past 2 months I went from having lost 24lbs to having only lost 20lbs. I wasn't able to exercise and I wasn't getting the right amount of calories so I gained weight back. But I am back in the game and plan to lose even more weight. This morning I had a strawberry and banana shake and it was fabulous! I could feel an instant change in my energy level! Yay! I am going to start slowly and work my way back into it. I think I might have a cranberry and mixed berry pomegranate shake for lunch. I've still got my healthy snack thing going on. I started drinking a little caffeine again while I was on my hiatus so I have to get off that stuff again. I'm still going to allow myself to have some but not much.
My new goal is 20lbs in the next 6 weeks. We will see what happens. Hopefully I can lose even more than that but I will be super happy with whatever it is as long as I am losing weight and getting healthier! I'm hoping to get some of my family on the shakes. Hopefully my progress will convince them to give the shakes a try! I just want everyone to be healthy and happy. There's no denying that my shakes have helped me do that!
I have to start getting back into an exercise routine. Pilates in the morning, Walking at lunch, and then an aerobics workout after work. I don't want to jump into it all at once so today I am going to do a little walking and maybe some pilates. I don't want to get burnt out or make myself sick. So here's to a new chapter in the dieting saga! I am determined to be thinner and happier with my weight and Body by Vi is going to help me do that!
