It has been a long time since I updated the hastag #GirlGetsFit... mainly because I got lazy & stopped exercising - cue getting up to almost 200lbs! - & mainly because I got ridiculously sick. & Im not just talking about coughcoughidontfeelgood - my body pretty much started to try & kill itself off & is destroying itself... in other words, we found out I have a bunch of autoimmune diseases. (lupus, fibromyalgia, & anklyosing spondylitis; followed by severe social anxiety rearing its ugly head again even though thats not autoimmune) So now that I am in treatment, I am now working on getting my meat bag of a body back into a shape that I am comfortable being.
I will say, that since I had been diagnosed with all that crap I have lost 30pounds since NOVEMBER. I am quite pleased with that. I know that doesnt seem like a lot but I am 30 pounds further from 200 pounds & 30 pounds closer to 130 (: For this first 30 day session of #GirlGetsFit, I am doing the 30 day Ab & Squat Challenge.
I have started this challenge a while ago & then tapered off because I was suppose to be doing it with my husband & he wimped out so I did too. Total sheeple. :/ SO! I restarted it... & I even made adorable planner stickers to motivate me even more! ^.^;

Soooo yeah! Days 1 & 2 are complete.. & they actually killed me >.< Having fibro, lupus, & AS can really take a toll on your stamina.. &, as you can see, I didnt even do much!! But I have also started a new healthy regimen... thing.
Every morning, before I eat anything, I drink 33oz of ice water (I also take a weight loss pill at the time) followed by a cup of hot decaf green tea with a little bit of honey. After I have had my morning liquids, I eat a light lunch (salad, celery & cream cheese, etc). Then I go back to drinking 33oz of water before the end of dinner. I eat a normal dinner ( + in another weight loss pill) & follow up with at least 16 oz of water. Right before I go to bed, I have a cup of hot sleepy time tea with a little bit of honey. I have actually surprised myself with how well I am sticking to this. & Im curbing my appetite so much that I am not feeling hungry (& by hungry i mean omgimstarvingsomeonefeedmeeventhoughijustateanhourago!).
I am slowly going to start adding in more exercise once my body is use to physical activity again. hey! We all need to start somewhere.
Are you doing this challenge or will you? If so, I would love to see your progress!
