Wow this job keeps me super busy. I didn't realize how long it's been since I've posted. I'm still VEGAN!!!
From February to the end of March I had a hard time keeping my eating under control. They offer so many free snacks here, plus it was just easier to eat a bag full of veggie fries and a tub of hummus than to cook proper meals on my new schedule. So there was an initial gain of 3 pounds.
Then in April, I started cooking again. I found that I like Jasmine rice and I started to eat it for dinner almost every day. It took me awhile to realize it, but I started bloating up like crazy. But as soon as I put the rice aside my weight started dropping fast.
Two Saturdays ago I went to the gym with one of my girlfriends and she showed me how to properly weight lift and have fun with it. I'm so excited that she did. I've been to the gym incorporating cardio and weight training for 10 of the past 14 days. My muscles are taking shape for sure and getting big. It's reflected in my weight, but I'm sure that's going to be temporary.
My belly is flattening, my biceps are becoming pronounced, and even my size L compression pants are starting to sag a bit when I run. I can't even wear the XL that I started out with to run, I might end up mooning people.
I also accomplished a big goal. I ran a 5k in less than 30 minutes. It's been six years since I've been able to do that. Hypoglycemia has taken so much from me. But being vegan keeps the blood sugar under control in such a surprising way. Balanced meals means balanced blood sugar means balanced energy means weight loss.
I'm so energetic. I feel like I have my life back. Life is great right now!
