WOWZA!

it has been a week, a good one as far as my health goes.

I went to Zumba!

Took a really long walk pushing a carriage w/ 4 children!

(talk about a leg and arm workout!)

Resisted pizza TWICE.

Haven’t had any sugar drinks!

Went from at least a 2 lt a day of coke zero to 12 oz!!!

(wonder if the stock price of coke went down over the pass 10 days?)

Drank shakes as directed and drank oodles of water!

can already see a difference in my face, it’s looking THINNER!!

Great week.

Feeling tired, less alert. Hope I will start feeling better.

soon.

Under promise, OVER achieve

 

Yep, that is my mantra for 2012.

Liquids, like before.

With my doctor, supervised.

NO DIET SODAS/tea etc…

NO Alcohol 

Drink TONS of Water

Zumba at least once a week.

Detox

Re Birth, A new beginning.

What’s different you ask?

I too am asking that question.

I think I found my soul.

The past few months many of my friends have lost a parent. I am too young to be losing parents. They were too young. They were all relatively healthy. I am not horribly unhealthy but I don’t want to be mediocre. I want to live a long life and see my son do amazing things. I want to grow old and have grandchildren. I want to grow old. So, I am taking my life back. Along with the help of a few prescription medications and the support of my friends and family I am going to DO THIS. And, do it right. I am going to get the 27lbs I gained and maybe even the other 13 I would LOVE to lose. I would feel SKINNY and HEALTHY!!

Who is that FAT girl in the mirror?

Oh, it’s just me!

I can not believe it has been almost a year since I posted!!

I have GAINED 27 lbs

How sad,

I swore I wouldn’t

I did.

Damn.

So, as the great Dr. Seuss said

Today is your day, your off and away

And I am back.

I am back on the liquids. I went to Zumba and I am trying to give up coke zero!!

Dear Lord, I hope I can walk tomorrow.  

 

Working out?

YES, YES, YES I AM!

Aren't you proud? Well. I sure as heck and so freaking proud of ME!!

Well. I am. I have and I like it.
I have more energy and am WAY nicer.
Family likes that.
My goal is a 5K in this Spring.
