I'm still learning

Yesterday Whitney and I did day two of the Making the Cut work out. It wasn't as bad as day one but I was still hurting towards the end. We've decided to motivate each other through the whole 30 days without quitting. I know I can do it as long as I have Whitney to keep motivating me through. Remember though that the work outs are great but we'll only see the results we want if we keep in mind our food and eating habits. I went on spark people to look for some recipes...here is something they had on here that I thought i'd post as a good reminder for all of us:
Stop skipping mealsA regular eating routine keeps you balanced and helps you digest food more efficiently. Plus it helps eliminate the starve-starve-starve-binge cycle many dieters suffer throughout the day.

Eat only when hungry
Not when you’re bored, sad, nervous, angry, upset or stressed. If you’re at a party with an appetizer buffet, socialize on the other side of the room, so you don’t habitually graze while talking. Listen to your body, not your mind or emotions.

Cut back on late night snacking
Prime time for television is also prime time for calorie-heavy comfort foods. Snacking at night is often another example of eating to relax or as something to do.

Plan for snacks
If you’re going to get the munchies – and you will – you might as well make the best of it. Keep raisins, carrot sticks, granola bars, and other healthy snacks within arms’ reach wherever you are.

Have a purposeful eating environmentThis is especially important at home. Choose a regular time and place for your meals. Cut out distractions, take a little extra time preparing and pay attention to your meal. Don’t eat over the counter, while watching TV or while on the phone.

**I think if we follow these rules (without cheating here and there) then we'll all see faster results**
