I can't tell you how much I missed writing about my body by vi 90 day challange, but unfortunately as circumstance would have it my lap top crashed and until now I haven't had access to the internet. On the bright side, I am back, and with all the more reason to begin my challenge over at day 1. First off, just a brief update on my first challenge in which my 90 days ended November 3rd, 2011. All in all, it went really well. I noticed a tremendous difference in my energy level, and even though I was never taking the challenge with the intention of losing weight, I did lose a few pounds. However, after my challenge I began to drift slowly back into my old eating habits and slowly but surely I've been eating more and more sugar. Circumstances are different this time around. Much different.
My new challenge will begin January 1st, 2012, with a new focus of once again cutting out as much sugar as possible. It is now more important than ever to be healthy, not only for myself but I am now two months pregnant. In my first pregnancy with Becca, I learned that I was borderline with gestational diebetes. I was consuming way too much sugar, which mostly included an outrageous amount of fruit, which I thought at the time was good for me. Too much of anything is never good, so I am working on cutting back on fruit and eating more vegetables. So let me begin my journey by counting down... and making conscious food decisions now to prepare myself for once again taking the 90 day challenge.
Keep in mind, that I have never stopped taking the Vi-Shakes and my reasons for incorperating the challenge into my routine is that I tend to work better with structure and discipline which doesn't come naturally to me. Small changes, 90 days at a time.
