Thank you for taking the time to read my blog! It is so great to look at the stats and see you popping in from Austria, Brazil, Canada, Germany, Italy, Russia, the United Kingdom and all over the United States. You are undoubtedly looking for something interesting. I hope I am able to deliver! :D I am also trying to write like I talk so you can get an idea of how an average person sounds in the USA.
Losing weight is not super easy. Why in the world did I think it might be easy enough? Hoo boy, it is also not really that difficult, but it IS nonstop thinking about what I put into my mouth. Life used to be so simple when I didn't have to plan what I was eating and I could just do life. When I got hungry I could grab something handy and yummy to satisfy that hunger. Side thought: maybe that is why so many people in the USA are obese. Because the availability of fast food and junk food is literally at our fingertips.
So, today I am a little frustrated and a teensy bit discouraged that this is going to be a long haul project and I have to stick with a plan. My alternative is to go back to my non-plan way of living and most certainly an early grave.
Yesterday I met a wonderful couple from Lima, Peru who now live in the USA. They both enjoy going to the gym and the wife especially loves Zumba. And her husband goes to Zumba with her! ha! Now, that is a good sport right there! :D We all know aerobic dance (Zumba) is very tricky for guys. ;D
This lady said that she used to hate exercise. She really loathed it. She would rather do anything than exercise. But one day her doctor told her that her cholesterol count was dangerously over 300 and that she would surely die if she didn't take action right away. She used to pass out and faint just because her cholesterol was so high! Oh my gosh, that's cra-zy!
So, she started exercising and now she really loves it and looks forward to it. I don't know if it is the exercise rush or what, but they both had a very shiny countenance! They look like they feel great, and said that they do! That is inspiring.
Again thank you for reading! Please comment! Grazie! Spasiba! Danke! Obrigada! XO! and Merci!
