Anyway, I was saying all this cause I wanted to point out the fact that I am eating pretty well AND losing weight! woo hoo! In the summer of 2006 I weighed almost 165lbs. I couldn't fit into a lot of my clothes and I started buying pants the next size up. Since I came to Korea a lot of my habits have changed. I walk everywhere (no car) I dont eat much cheese or bread (they arnt very good in Korea and not common) and I have been exercising 3-4 times a week. Well I am happy to announce that even after eating two big meals (one that is TOTALLY not healthy!) I weighed in at 143 lbs today!!! WOO HOO! When I went to college I weighed about 138-140 depending on the day. And I haven't grown an inch since then. So, the way I see it, I should get back to my previous weight. It took me about 7-8 years to put the lbs on and in almost 2 years I have taken them off! I think thats pretty good. I have learned a lot of good habits since I moved here, and I hope to keep them up.
I have to say that Hot Yoga has really helped accelerate my weight loss... I was averaging about 1 lb a month (which isn't bad for long term weight loss) and on top of that my knees (which I really messed up 3 years ago) feel SO much better! And I have more flexibility :)
Anyway, the moral of this story is... do yoga... preferably in a hot room! :) for 90 min
Love ya all!
