Day 60 :)

This is a post from my other blog but I thought I would post it over here as well :)

"I can not believe that it has been 60 days since the beginning of of my Power 90 journey.  It has been a bit of a roller coaster but I am so proud of the progress I have made and the person I have become in the last 2 months. In the last 60 days I have gained more confidence, have more energy,  I have more muscle tone, I am stronger, I have lost 9 lbs (I hit my goal weight at Weight Watchers), I dropped a size, fit in my clothes better (many are too big) and I have created a much healthier lifestyle for myself.

The greatest accomplishment (one that I never set out to do) is that I have shown my son how important it is to eat healthy food and to exercise regularly.  He loves to "workout" and coach me, he is learning so much about food and we now have a special time to look forward to each day :) 

Exercise and eating healthy is now part of my everyday.  Yes I have bad days, bad weeks (who doesn't??) but over all I am usually upset because I ate too much fruit, or cheated with an extra yogurt :)  I have stopped baking (I have no will power), drink way less wine (light beer has kind of taken its place) and try to only snack on fruits and vegetables.  I eat salad everyday, have limited my white flour and sugar and feel really, really GREAT!

I look forward to the next 30 days!  My goals are to try to get every workout in, increase my resistant bands to 30 lbs, add my weighted gloves to the cardio pieces and stick to my Weight Watchers plan.  I am not looking to be a super model by the end of this but I am hoping to continue to slim down and look great in my lands end tankini ;)"

Incredible! You are doing awesome and all the nutrition changes you made - like switching to light beer and stopping baking are the lifestyle things that make it easier. I am so proud of you - especially since I think you have exceeded what you thought you could do! Can't wait to hear about day 90 and beyond :)
