I know one of the main things people struggle with is weight loss because it takes a lot of work and effort, but with goals and people there to encourage you along the way it is a lot easier. I will be posting the workout routines that I am doing and recipes that I will be trying. I'm not doing any fad diet that says I have to cut something completely out of my diet (although this might work for some people, I'm not one of them) I will just simply count calories and do portion control. Now some of you may be asking yourself, how is she going to lose weight if she has a piece of cake every now and then? The thing is, I've done this before, there are birthdays, hormones, and holidays that come around all the time. I have to know when enough is enough! I don't have 10 pieces of cake at a birthday party, I simply ask for a really thin slice and that's all I need. There's nothing wrong with enjoying yourself you just have to be smart about it.
I will start this new chapter of uncertantites tomorrow because I have no idea what the future holds in this journey. I cannot predict the road blocks that I will hit or the plateaus that I will face, but since I know they will come it will not be as much of a shock and I won't look at it as a set-back it's just an obstacle that I WILL overcome!
Until tomorrow....
Awesome post! Your Pawpaw has been a huge inspiration to me to get healthy. I have been going to the gym and eating a lot healthier and I can see a HUGE difference. I got off my anti anxiety meds and migraine meds and the green smoothies and gym time are the reasons why!
ReplyDeleteKeep at it and you will see results. I have lost almost 7lbs but I know that I'm not weighing less because I'm picking up muscle. It's more about being healthy than skinny. I will keep you in my prayers and I know that you got this. Don't give up!!!!!
yes he is such an inspiration! I don't know if I'll go as far as taking Barley life but I'm not ruling it out either! I appreciate the support. I'm not making a certain weight goal because I know that I have a lot of muscle and bone mass. it's just changing what I eat.and adding exercise in little by little. I'm doing run or dye in December so I'm working towards that right now. I'm starting a plan thatactually doesn't require running until week 3 or 4.
