I can do hard things!

I have been on the 90-day challenge for 19 days and I have lost 5 lbs. That was my first goal and it took me almost 3 weeks. I thought I would see results faster, but making a life style change is not easy. Especially this kind for me. I LOVE food. I love the taste of sweet, savory, gooey, cheesy, chocolatey etc. etc. I love the smell. Food is just so comforting all around. So, when I committed to do this challenge, I realized it wasn't going to be easy and I would have to make sacrifices in order to see the results I wanted. But to see the scale moving in the right direction, is motivation.

Daily routine:
Wake up 5:45
Head to gym: Cardio 30 min. (I'm doing the "Couch to 5K in 9 weeks" for my cardio.
                      Strength training: Arms (Mon. Wed. Fri.) Legs (Tues. Thurs.)
Make a shake, either w/ frozen fruit or chocolate Silk. Both are very tasty! Start drinking my 100 oz. of water...I'm not used to drinking that much water in a day...but I feel the benefits.
Snack: String Cheese/Yogurt/Water
Lunch: Shake/water
Snack: Bean, corn, avocado, roma tomato Dip w/ 5 tortilla chips/Water
Dinner: Salmon, Chicken Breast, veggies, salad...whatever I am making for my family, I eat, but I modify it to stay in my calories.
Water, Water, Water, Water, Water!

I'm not perfect everyday...but I am continually trying.

...Because in the end, I will feel great, look great, and finally accomplished this life long goal!
