11 weeks today. Just over 3/4s of the 100 days. A little back story: At the last Andy Kim Christmas Show in December, a lovely friend said she had just met my brother, and had a nice chat with him. I found this peculiar, as my brother wasnt at the show. It turns out she was talking to my dad. Mind you, my dad had been on somewhat of the same journey I am on now, and looked fantastic...but still, it hit me pretty hard. Id like to take this time to thank my dad for his inspiration on my quest for health. I think he is somewhere in the 300 day workout vicinity. I love you dad. Im very proud of you. I have been stepping up the ab and lat workouts. Its been a while since Ive seen my ribs. Cardio is still a big one for me. I feel a large part of my weight loss is accredited to cardio and a very healthy diet. It still boggles me, however, how expensive it is to eat healthy. Especially gluten free products. I am investing in myself, and I try not to think of it, but something needs to change. EVERYONE should be able to eat like this. I am thankful that I live in a city where you can find healthy options for cheaper...but you have to really look hard. I am looking to grow my own food, eventually. Unfortunately, my backyard doesnt get enough sun. Anyway, enough about that. I have been making my own special nut mixes for snacks. Ive found my energy levels are higher, and my hunger levels, lower. Walnuts, almonds and pecans. Phil Houston calls me The Nut Whisperer, which I find hilarious. One day Ill divulge my secret spicings... I find a half avocado filled with real lemon juice is a tasty and healthy snack, also. No need to add anything else. Its perfection. Im constantly shocked at how my endurance has increased. I actually dont mind moving my gear around anymore. Ive still a way to go, but with all of your support, I am bound and determined to get there. Every day is a new level of excitement. A pound lost. A muscle, strengthened. Negative notions, defeated. Positive motion, created and applied. Life is easier if you love yourself. Its really that simple. Today is, and always will be, your day. Have heart, will hold. Dd
