Vegan for 5 weeks and counting

Okay, I've done it for over a month and it's been fairly easy. I am learning NOT to talk about being a vegan. Who really cares? I am smaller. I am slipping into clothes and pulling out things that wouldn't button or close properly. So, I must be down close to one size. During the summer, I bought size 12 shorts. My size 10s are fitting and some size 8s are working for me. I refuse to weigh myself. The last time I did that, I was depressed for a day.

When the size 8s are too loose, I may weigh myself. I am guessing that I will need to start exercising. I think the change of weather is to blame for my lack of enthusiasm. During the summer, I was really into my bike. The cold weather brings out the need to get inside. I should start attending exercises classes, but the gym near my home is really bad. The main aerobics teacher is not qualified to teach (in my humble opinion). So, I need to find a new routine.

In addition, I need to start my running (which won't happen outside) and my swimming lessons. Hubby is heading out of town, so that won't be this week. I hope my next post shows some improvement in my exercise.

I did T-Tapp last week. It felt great. I may try doing that for the week. It's a start.
