Morning weigh in: 184.2

If you do the math correctly, that's a pound down from yesterday.

No really, no need for applause.
Just the satisfaction of total personal success will be enough.

Seriously though, I would like to admit at this time that I have been that lazy girl who has not actually exercised yet.  However, I am following a different motto right now that seems to be working.

I think it's an interesting "statistic" (that by the way could totally be made up by some crackpot sitting on their couch stuffing cheetos in their mouth) that most of the weight we can accumulate is not necessarily because of the sedentary lifestyle we live, but mostly because of just bad choices with the food we eat.

So far, this has been true for me.  Back in March I weighed in at 192.  Yeah, again.  I went there.  My bad.

But the ONLY thing I have done any differently has been changing what I eat.  Last summer I was all hardcore about making sure I worked out 3 times a week for an hour at a time.  Oddly enough, I had a hard time losing some of that weight.

Now I can't be sure why.  Maybe it was the "gain of muscle" because muscle weighs more than fat discussion.  Maybe I was so busy fretting about having to work out that I wasn't paying enough attention to the types of food I was eating?  I don't know.  Maybe I was just too overwhelmed by trying to do it all.

So, if you're interested in this new mantra, give it a try! I am personally seeing nice results (almost 10 pounds in two months) just from focusing solely on my kitchen instead of my Nikes. 

...and to answer your question in advance, YES, I do plan on integrating some "gym" into my shenanigans but that will come when my kitchen results start to plateau and I need an extra boost to get new results.
