I feel like I don’t post anything but announcements that I am starting again. It’s aggravating, but I just can’t seem to get going and keep myself going.
I have been feeling so horribly bad about myself lately. I don’t like how I look. I don’t like how I feel. My clothes are starting to not fit again. I hate having my picture taken. I need to do something before things get even more out of control.
I weighed myself this morning and after having lost nearly 70 pounds in 2013-14, I have put 33.8 pounds back on.
Unacceptable.
I need to do something now.
My clothes look horrible on me but I absolutely refuse to go out and buy a larger size. I need to get back into them.
I went to GNC over the weekend and bought a juice cleanse — something I have never tried before, but having talked to a few people who have tried it, I decided to give it a shot. I am not expecting miracles. I just want to feel better.
I am trying the GNC Total Lean 2-day juice cleanse, and hopefully that will help get my energy up and help me to not feel like a turd. Most of the reviews said it tasted terrible, so I prepared myself for it, but I honestly didn’t think it tasted bad at all. Kind of like apple juice. Basically you drink two bottles of the stuff a day for two days before meals. They also tell you what you should be eating throughout the day. I am going to stick to it somewhat, but I know that if I want to lose weight, I have to cut back on carbs, so I will be modifying the plan a bit. Hopefully I’ll have some kind of an update tomorrow.
I have posted on Facebook that I am starting over again, again and almost instantly got a response from a high school friend that she wants to eat healthier and get in shape, so we are going to help keep hold each other accountable. If anyone else wants to do the same, let me know. The more the merrier.
I know that in order for me to get with the program I need to write. It helps for others to hold me accountable, and it helps for me to do nothing but think about weight loss for the 30 or so minutes it takes for me to write so I need a favor from you. For at least the next two weeks, if you see that I miss a day and don’t write, call me out on it. If I am not writing, I am probably not doing well. It doesn’t need to be a long post, but it needs to be something. I think if I can do well for two weeks, that will get me on a pretty good start.
As much as I hate to do it, I am going to update my progress pictures either tonight or tomorrow so I can get a realistic idea in my head of how far I have slid backward.
I have the same problem I can get moving and eating the right stuff I have a lot to lose
im right there with ya girl…your mom makes ME feel like a turd
She is kicking ass and taking names, I am SO proud of her. Eventually I plan on writing about both her and dad, as well as you and Lady! You guys are all so inspirational!
Good for you for kick starting with a cleanse! I am part of some facebook health groups…post ideas for healthy recipes, workout ideas/tips and motivational quotes. might be something you want to consider so friends can join and cheer you on and work on their own progress as well.
I am in a couple groups as well and I completely agree, they really do help! If nothing else it makes me feel like I am not alone in my struggle with weight. That’s also why I follow so many blogs on here 🙂
