Fitness

A couple of years ago, I decided to loose weight. I was able to loose 76 lbs. in about a year. Setting my mind to exercise every night for two hours was difficult. About two years after loosing weight, I stopped exercising. Since then, I have been on and off on my exercise routine.

I also began to eat the foods I had given up in order to loose weight, chips, pizza, cheesecake, tiramisu cake (my favorite), Olive Garden, Red Robin, and T.G.I Fridays. Mmmmmmm!

Since I have not been working out regularly, I have gained around 13 lbs. Now, I am trying to go back to exercise, only this time I am burning 1,000 calories on a daily basis. Before I was only doing 600 calories without any of the junk food mentioned above. Starting today I will go back to my old diet of eating mostly grain foods and vanilla flavored soy protein shake to replace a meal, disgusting by the way. After I finished exercising tonight, I went to the kitchen to get some grapes because I was feeling hungry, I think.

I walked into the kitchen around 12 am and I saw some cakes and churros (Spanish style doughnuts). If you never had a churro, you got to try one. They are really good, just don’t buy the once sold in the Mexican bakeries in Detroit, those are nasty. My mom buys some that really taste like the once in Mexico, but I don’t know where she gets them and I don’t want to know. Always buy the fresh ones, you can tell by giving a gentle squeeze, if they are stale, than they are old and will not taste good. If you shop or ever go to any Costco in the U.S., you should find them at the concession. I have never had a nasty churro there. Churros at Costco are a $1. Buy a churro with a berry smoothie or mocha and you won’t regret it. Typing about it is making my mouth watery. Or how I sometimes say it because I want it so bad, “making my watery mouth.”
