Feeling DAMN Good...

Today i checked the scale, since i went on my diet on December,26,2011.. I have lost 65lbs as of today,and i felt so good, i went out and dyed my hair my natural color, red... and got it cut "Even though its 4 inches shorter than i wanted" I still feel good!

Way to go CG ....that's awesome!! 🙂 how did u do it?

Yes Moonman! I been dying my hair black,and blonde for a long time, so i had to strip it and dye it my natural color to get it back,LOL.. When it grows out i wont even have to touch it up!

LostInMyMind11,.. I stopped drinking soda. I havent had a regular or diet soda since December,26,2011! I oined a gym. I do aerobics,yoga,strength training and eat 6 small meals a day of the 4 food groups instead of 3 regular meals. If i bake i use applesauce instead of eggs,and Fat free mayo instead of oil. I eat half a plate of veggies at dinner,and a 6oz piece of chicken or fish,i also replaced lean hamburger with turkey,since turkey is a fat-burning food. Steal cut oatmeal,half a grapefruit and yogurt with a glass of fat free milk every morning,and a work out 2 hours later,and i eat alot of fat free greek yogurt. To lose weight your body needs half your body weight in protein and 1/3 your body weight in water.. and greek yogurt has a ton more protein than regular, just look at the labels. Some women make a mistake of eating a little,and doing just cardio.. which will only make you lose your boobs and make your skin sag. Your body NEEDS lots of GOOD nutritional FOOD. Carrots and vitamins dont cut the mustard. Unless you wanna look flat as a board on both sides i guess its okay, but i am stuck on what i am doing, i am losing my belly,arms and inner thighs while sculpting everything else. Hour glass shape is what i am aiming for and i am getting those results. 🙂

congrats!
