My Diet July 17

Along with excersise I must make changes in my diet. Notice I did not say Im going on a diet. A person's diet is basicly their food choices; their food intake. It is good when you decide to make a change in your life especially involving your health you must 1) identify the issue 2) have the facts about the issue relating to you personally and 3) have a goal ( what do you want to do or what can be done about it) 4) what changes do you want to see and 5) after accomplishing your goal, how to sustain it ! My goal is to tone( tighten and strengthen) my body. I weigh 140 and look like im 5 months pregnant. Im always bloaded and my legs gets tired before the rest of my body... I NEED MORE ENERGY!!! I am pretty much a healthy person. I love fruit, salads and veggies (most of them *wink*), no smoking, drinking, keep up with my doctors appointments; but every now and again I want junk food. My weaknesses are icecream( I can knockout a pint in a half hour), any kind of breads( pastries, cookies, cakes, pies..ok im feeling tempted). But since my change of diet I have been eating.. fruit smoothies, nuts, different salads, no fried food, processed foods, 2% milk, smaller portions during dinner, and no more 2 sandwiches per servings. Along with my Insanity workout I also do Yoga, walking ( when you drive you sometimes forget how to walk; haha) and Pilaties. Oh Just to let you know I joined a group on facebook called 90 Day Challenge and I always post my progress there.
 So far so good with my workouts and I am feeling good about it. Im doing this alone and I know people say it is better to do this with someone it makes it more fun and the accountabliity is there and thats true for alot of people; support is a natural need and desire we all have. But for me I feel that if you want it for your self; really, really want it and if you have the conviction deep inside you ( not to say temptations wont come and you might stumble)  noone should be able to pull you away from what you need to do for your self. Sometimes we tend to put our desires on other people but when they drop off we stop or we blame them. ITS NOT THEiR GOAL, ITS NOT THEIR DESIRE... ITS NOT THEIR LIFE. We must bring in the strengh to accomplish what is in our own hearts and hold ourself accountable. We live (within the issue) everyday. We know that it is there. Sometimes to deal with it we hide or ignore it. Then when it rise in our face we panic or make bad choices hoping it go away...but it doesn't.

So here I am doing this quest alone but determind to complete the full 90days getting to know my self, growing as a woman, really seeing who Nicie is and when I reach that point every excuse I  used before about anything...I CANT USE AGAIN!
