Day 11

Well, today is day 11 and so far Im really enjoying my new (and improved) eating plan.  The small addition of some fruit & veggies has made a HUGE difference in how I feel.  My energy levels are back up and Im far less hungry between meals than before.  Ive even gone back to having 3 regular meals per day instead of spreading out my protein to 5 meals each day (mostly because having a "side" of anything makes a high protein diet much more tolerable). 

Today I treated myself to some more exercise equipment... or is it a video game accessory?  You be the judge:  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003KT9E64/ref=ox_ya_os_product

Its a platform for my Wii Fit balance board so that I can make my step aerobics that much more intense.  It increases the height to either 4 or 6 inches, much more appropriate for step aerobics than just the balance board itself.  Ive ALWAYS loved step aerobics, since the first time I tried it in middle school gym class!  So making my balance board a little higher should help up the intensity of my workout... once it comes in 5-8 business days from now.  Im a huge fan of Amazons Super Saver shipping. 

I also did some "in office" stretching today, which was one of the recommended workouts on the Medi-Weightloss patient website.  10 minutes of that to burn 50 calories & give my neck and back a much needed stretch is definitely doable every day.

Tonight my husband and I are planning on doing some Wii Fit together before dinner (leftover feta burgers with steamed broccoli).  Cant wait!  Ive been dying to get back on that balance board... and not only because it means I can cheat & see my weight loss progress!  ;-)
