Fitness/ Weight Loss Journal – Day 3 – So excited to share this!

I am broken today!!!

In Body… In soul I am very very excited. After forever I played basketball today with my daughter and I was so happy to Discover that…. I still can! So the main purpose of this was to make her play, spend some quality time and at the same time it would give me some exercise But I was definitely not expecting this much fun!

Had three yoga classes today and later after my basketball I had no energy left for anything else so just took some walk with my daughter. Touched 15k steps today.

It was an excellent day as far as diet is concerned. Absolutely clean eating. While my daughter sat and ate cup noodles I made a healthier choice of a meal rich in proteins and veggies. I had thought of taking a pic to share here but once the food is in front of me pics are the last thing on my mind 🙁 Oh and it was super yummy! Don’t think healthier food choices have to taste boring.

Another thing I want to share is that I recently started black coffee and I think now around 2 weeks down I am totally adjusted to the taste. I used to wonder how people could drink something so bitter and I am surprised that now I do too and enjoy it as well. (A friend suggested Nescafe gold and trust me its awesome so if you want to start out, this could be a good choice)

This year I had also aimed at cutting down sugar completely. Most people recommend going cold turkey… but somehow that was not working for me. So I kept option open. And now that I have been drinking black coffee for a while, I find my regular tea, too high on sugar, too heavy. So the only sugar was that I added to my tea, and that is out, hopefully for good.

So lesson learnt is, it is all in the mind and the mind tries to avoid change. Habits are comfort zones and stepping out needs effort. But once you make that effort and stick to it for a while, you form new habits, you bring the change you want to see. And you make yourself so very proud.

So wake up shake up… Be the change you want to see. What you consider impossible is just a step away perhaps. After all even impossible says I – Am- Possible!

Love and Light 🙂
