Proud of Me!

So I've been on the Simple app for a little over a month.  And I was hoping it would help.   OK, hoping it would be a little more miraculous in weight loss than regular "diets".   And I was wrong to hope for that.  They say its a matter of calories in and calories out, but that's not all of it or my scale would move.

So today I realized two things:  my weight isn't as important as my health; the healthier eating I've been doing is good for me.  And the scale won't move unless I do what worked for me before:  an hour in the gym 5x week.  

With that in mind, I was determined to do more today.  My goal was 7 minutes on the elliptical.  (I used to do 45 mins!)  Today, I was able to do 10, and I'm proud of that!  It was a little uncomfortable --  and I'm sure I will have sore muscles tomorrow, but doing this is for me! 

After that, I completed 30 mins, 7 miles, on the bike.  None of this will be easy, but I am determined. 

The struggle is real.
