Happy Friday!
My hero in my WIP is Jackson Pierce. One of the things I adore about him is that he adopted the gym as his surrogate family. He is very physically fit! So since I created Jackson, I thought I better get myself to the gym! :-)
I want to review Body for Life. It's a fitness/eating plan that I am committing myself to. I've been working it for about three weeks now. I have to admit I haven't been perfect. But, what I am doing is creating very good habits. I've almost completely given up pop. Yes, I LOVED my Diet Coke. At first, it was very hard. Now, I really do crave water. And since Monday, Andrea's iced tea!
I am eating six small meals a day that have one carb and one protein per serving. I need to add veges to at least two meals. What I am finding is that planning is the key. If I make my lunch ahead of time, it works. If I mess up, I get right back on track the next meal.
In addition to eating, working out at the gym is a must. I'm getting much better at wanting to go. I take my husband with me, and he is good inspiration.
It's amazing what you can learn from the characters you create. Enjoy the weekend and post your thoughts.

You rock, Ingrid!
Great job getting to the gym.
Can you believe I've been up everyday this week at 6 am and exercised? Unbelievable for the woman who slept to 11 am most of the summer. :D
Can't wait to see your before/after pics. You did take before pics, right?
I had no idea you liked my iced tea so much. Thanks! It's Stash Mango Passionfruit Decaf tea.
Have a great weekend,
Andrea
Thanks Andrea. I don't have the traditional bikini picture. I thought my camera would break. I have a picture when I was in Chicago that will work. :-)
Rock on!
