Excited about my weight loss in Week 1, it wasn't hard to continue into this new week! I've got lots more meal ideas to try out, as I slowly build my collection of gluten and sugar free meals and snacks for our family.
I've also decided to add in daily exercise. I'm keeping it simple - my aim is to go for a 30 minute walk 5-6 days a week, or when the weather prevents walking, to do the 15 minute T-tapp Basic Workout routine (I have the DVD). I like this workout because it's very effective, no impact, needs no special equipment and only enough space to spread your arms in all directions. However, it's been years since I used to do it regularly, and I know it's going to hurt for the first week, so I'm hoping to start off with mostly walking for the first week or two then add in T-tapp a couple of times a week.
