In april we went out with some friends and they took some pictures of me, when I saw them up on facebook I was flabbergasted! Was that girl there really me? I looked HUGE, I had mad double chins and body shape like a tomatoe. It really sent me into the light, I had gained almost 150pounds since my boyfriend and I got together two years ago, I had always been a larger girl but this was the biggest I had ever been... SO I took the advice that many of my family and friends had been telling me for years, Get motivated, get fit, do something before it gets worse. I was lucky I had a close family friend who was willing to support me and show me what I needed to know, we had been watching her shed the weight and inches for almost a year and it really was inspiring. If she could do that in a year than so could I. It was time to get fit, and do something about my body and self image. I have been trying to get to the gym now from monday to friday, when I first started i was gungho, doing it hard eating brekfast every morning (Something I hadn't been doing since I was ten years old) eating right NO fast food cutting out on pop and junk. It went well I lost 20 pounds in a month, then i felll off the wagon and had every excuse in the book to not go, Than I was sick with a flu for a week and a friend passed away and I really was feeling discouraged. Yesterday was my first day back with my friend working out, she works me so hard its like my own bootcamp, today was the second day back it was another really hard one, but afterwards I wieghed myself after dreading I would have put on 10 pounds I was excited to see that I had actually lost 7 pounds! so my weight loss so far is 27 pounds, its just a start, hopefully this will help me keep my food in order. That is the hardest part for me, typically I would starve myself all day and then binge from 9pm till I went to bed, I know , I know its terrible. So now I am trying my hardest to eat right, eat regularly and keep heatlhy. Tomorrow back to the gym for another hard work out.
Wish you All a Happy Healthy Week!
