Changes I've noticed on my #body...

As I'm easing into week 6 I've noticed changes already happening in my body due to the daily run/walks, increased water intake (from almost 0 - 5-8 bottles of water daily!), and decrease in food. I'm sleeping better and deeper now. I really do feel rested now when I wake up. My face is pretty clear. I've never really had face issues and still get the "teen" flareups here and there but my skin is looking pretty smooth and even these days. Can't describe it but I hold my water increase responsible LOL.

I'm noticing the slow reshaping of my body. I'm still at the beginning of my journey but I can already see my waist again (yay) and I can see my legs smoothing out.

I'm still at the run/walk of my daily routine. I don't punish myself if I can't work out one day but I continue it the next day. I'm still doing 2 miles daily. I will be increasing it to 3 miles as soon as I can get my time down to 20 minutes each mile at least. I'm still at 25-30 minutes per mile. Very slow, although, my heart is racing and I'm sweating (only the parts I run) so I know it's working me out.

I also added ab work to my routine. I make it a habit to stretch, throw in some squats and kickboxing, but mostly I do sit-ups. My stomach is getting flatter and my "love handles" are getting smaller. Can't wait till it's all gone!

I'm very happy with how things are going. I noticed too that with eating less, my appetite has gotten smaller so now I really do get full faster with less food. I'm glad I shrunk my stomach lol. So I'm still eating bad for me foods but less of it or omitting the extra starches lol. It's helping me that's for sure!
