My friend asked me if I wanted to start her summer diet/workout regime (whole grains, veggies, lean meats, and tons of cardio and other gym classes). Already I don't think I can do it. My reply to her was, "Ok, but I need an incentive. And I need to start next week because I have a brunch date with my girlfriends on Sunday). There's ALWAYS an excuse.
How do I just buckle down and do this? I did feel really proud when waiting in line for starbucks debating if I should get a. A caramel frap or b. a tea and an almond toffee cookie, and ended up just getting a tea lemonade. (hey it's a start).
Maybe competition is the key. Now that my friends and I are doing it for our vacation on memorial day, I am determined to not be the only one wearing a beach dress while everyone is in their bikinis.
1. Give up my daily caramel macchiatos.
2. Gym at least 4 times a week
3. Give up all candy
4. Eat til I'm satisfied, don't stuff myself
I have to take it one day at at time. So these are my goals for this next coming week. Wish me luck and lots of will power.
