On Monday I started an 8 week weight loss challenge with my fellow coworkers.
Originally, I wasn’t going to sign up for it. But I realized with my first half marathon coming up, that I really needed to focus on my health and fitness. And what better way to do it than with a few bucks on the line.
We get points for frequent exercise, drinking more water, eating better, and etc. I thought this would be a great time for me to get healthier and more fit. The race is about 3 months away from today, and I really would like to drop some fat and have more miles under my belt when the starting pistol fires.
My problem is sweets and snacks. And the caloric density of the sweets and snacks. Little Debbie, Hostess, Cupcakes, and ice cream. All my weakness.
For the past few days I’ve stayed away from sweets, have eaten more fruits than I usually do, and have drank way too much water. Supplement wise, I am keeping it simple and staying with the staples. I’ve been drinking a daily protein shake and taking CLA
