Discipline

Spent all of December and January creating a base of watching diet and discipline of working out daily as much as possible. I built a base of initial strength and conditioning  but stalled out in weight loss over the last three weeks on South Beach diet Phase 2.

Found this site and am now tracking daily calorie intake without restricting any particular food group. Eating with variety across all groups in a balanced way. Also upped the workouts to an hour/fifteen daily.  Don't know if this is what shook the tree or not but weight loss finally started grudgingly (is that a word?) downward. Yahoo. I only have five pounds to go but those are always the hardest.
