– I have been tracking my diet like crazy. Yes it is a pain to track everything
that goes into my mouth but it is definitely doing some good. It is so interesting
to see what a portion size is. I for sure can’t trust my lying eyes. Even
though I’ve tracked before I forget just what equals a tablespoon or how much a
cup really is. I am a “volume” (Lisa’s word I LOVE it) eater so measuring my
food is a must. Lisa follows me on
my fitness pal (the app I use to log all my foods) and I follow her. I am
totally accountable to her. Good and bad. I love looking at what she enters and
have even found a new love. Quest bars. I kept seeing her logging. Part of my
inner monologue was “protein bars are NOT great for you and have as much sugar
as a candy bar. Maybe Lisa isn’t so perfect after all.” Not the case. I got one
and WOW! I love them. They are so yummy tons of different flavors, 1 to 2 grams
of sugar and a great alternative to a protein shake.
This
morning Lisa and I met for time 2! She went gentle on my back and we did lots
of TRX stuff. It is so wonderful to have someone who is just focused on you! I
have never had one-on-one training before and it’s amazing. Lisa’s attention is
all on me and my body. She notices little tweaks and changes I can make to
improve so I can lift better, cleaner and stronger. Having the spotlight makes me
responsible for doing the exercises to best of my ability, every timeJ Lisa makes sure of it.
