GilmoreGirl's Journal, 17 May 2011

I'm feeling pretty good about my healthy lifestyle right now!

Things are going exactly as I want them to go. I made the 75 pounds lost milestone on Saturday, which felt amazing. :-)

I'm learning to really listen to my body. Some days it is telling me to move more, some days it's telling me to eat more fat, some days more protein, some days less food, some days more food! And it feels great to really listen.

I still slip up, though. I feel as if this will be a lifelong learning process that never ends.

But getting to know my body and its cravings has been a beautiful thing, and I can't wait to learn more.

I started a new challenge on here called "30 Day Exercise Challenge" that will challenge me and all members to get up and move every single day for an entire month. There are no guidelines other than that. No expectations except that you should move with focused activity (meaning you can't count things that you would have done anyway, like washing dishes) for at least 10 minutes a day.

My plan is to keep up with my current exercise schedule, plus on my days of rest do either a leisurely walk or some pilates.
