I am thrilled to share with you my interview with The Trusted Fitness Guide.

Making a Healthy Lifestyle Change can sometimes feel like a monumental task. Recently, an online client I work with sent me an update that I wanted to share with you. Not only does it show the funny side of change, it also speaks to the way our eyes open to new things when we are giving ourselves the time we deserve.

Candace,

I wanted to give you an update…I’ve done GREAT and I’m very determined, but these are some ramblings I want you to know:

1. My urine is no longer yellow
2. I never knew cardboard (Ezekiel bread) could be so damn good.
3. I’ve increased my aerobic exercise running to the bathroom in every house, store, business this side of Alabama.
4. It is rather boring from 5 – 7 without a cocktail, however I’ve learned to enjoy my green tea hour.
5. I would kill for some Triscuits and cheese.
6. I’m very tired of salmon.
7. Once a week wine is something to really, really look forward to.
8. It is impossible to eat 4 egg whites, but 2 is manageable
9. When you drink a lot of water you are full most of the time.
10. Days pass more slowly when you’re watching what you’re eating…which isn’t a bad thing.

Just an update, but I’ve been hugely successful this first week and want to look at this as my new healthy lifestyle. I was weighed and measured on 1/13 and will not weigh or measure again until I have a month under my belt. I’ve learned from past mistakes. I do feel stronger and a little more lean, sort of like letting a tad of air out of a balloon. Thank you for devising this plan for me. I go to your website often to get more inspiration. My family and friends are very supportive. I’m determined to drop 30 but probably 40 would be better. Thanks again; I’ll let you know my progress next month!

Are you ready for your healthy lifestyle change? What are you waiting for???
