There’s no excuse for my absence. I need to be better at adapting to change so I won’t attempt to make any excuses, just here to update, finally!

I am still blown away I am seeing these results! I have been very consistent with my lifting program, but not consistent at all with my cardio program. I think I have gone running twice for 30 minutes each time in the past month. That’s all about to change!
Friday/Saturday/Sunday are my off days and are going to have to be my running days. I realized the couch to 5K program is a little too elementary for me so I am going to start off at 2 mile jog at my current comfortable pace and do intervals for the third mile. There’s no reason I can’t lift Monday-Thursday.
Also, I have my results for my ALCAT Food sensitivity testing. The results weren’t very dramatic. I have a mild intolerance to gluten so I am going to make an effort to eliminate it completely from my diet (not really a large task) and avoid blueberries, romaine lettuce, and walnuts for about 3 months because I have a mild intolerance right now to those as well. The hardest recommendation is food rotations. The ALCAT diet recommends doing a 4 day rotation so that you don’t repeat the same foods earlier than every 4 days. This ensures that you don’t build up an intolerance and develop food sensitivities that cause inflammation in the body. I will try that out. I cook for myself only so I usually have a lot of leftovers. It may not be realistic for me to eat on a 4 day rotation. Maybe 3.
I also plan on catching up on my blog reading today, but tell me, how are you all doing? Meeting your goals? I hope your life is just peaches!
Hi,
Good luck with the rest of your weight loss journey and I will be following.
I haven’t been on your blog before but I just wanted to say: your results really are amazing
Love, Anne
Thank you so much! I love connecting with new people through healthy lifestyle choices!
Ship! Welcome back! I’m terrible at keeping up around this place. Congrats at your loss in your waist and thighs! I’m still working hard at it. It’s hard work but SO worth it. I hope to still have my blog once I get to goal and beyond…until they shut’er down. Stay strong!
Thanks so much!
Earlier I couldn’t see the right column…you should be dropping a pant size! Great!
I realized that and fixed it. And yes, I dropped a pant size
