Water Weight

I'm just going to go ahead and say that the only reason people initally lose all that "water weight" is because they are constantly moving... for fear of having an accident. I get that 8 glasses a day is ideal, but is it really practical? How do people work and still have time to go to use the restroom every 10 minutes?

I drank a lot of water yesterday...

BUT, it was a good first day. I ate super healthy and weighed out all my food. I mean I feel that small children eat more cereal for breakfast than I had in my bowl this morning, but hey, it's worth it? (That question mark wasn't a typo). 

Today's hour and a half of fun:
110 jumping jacks
50 vertical leg crunches
20 sit-ups
20 squats
10 side lunges (each leg)
20 leg lifts (each leg)
60 bicycles
15 push-ups
40 russian twists
walk/run 2.5 miles

I only picked 2.5 miles because that's the distance it takes to make the loop on a road in my neighborhood. There's nothing significant about that number. Also, if you've ever heard the saying that walking burns as many calories as running... I have a link for you.

Spoiler alert: it doesn't.

However, walking burns more calories than not walking so if that's what you're in to, I say go for it.

And incase any of you were wondering, the answer is no. I STILL have not lost 30 lbs. Can you believe it!? After all that work yesterday...sheesh.
