Everything has been low key and no regiment. The snorkeling is over for now, swimming will be over soon and I will be left with gardening and walking. There is no doubt in my mind that a good part of my issues is lack of movement.
Anna, for me, I think that when I'm deliberately moving, I've tricked my brain into thinking I'm gonna be effective in removing the fat. In truth, I have more weight-loss success when I tweak my nutrition - mostly by limiting my carbs and upping my protein. But, you have to move your body to aid in digestion, sleep, etc - plus, doesn't it just feel good?
