Well friends, I doubt if anyone is still reading this, but I am doing it for me, to hold myself accountable, and to follow my new journey. I have eaten my way up to higher than when I started the Belly Fat Cure 5 years ago. For 5 years I was able to control my weight, not to the lowest I wanted to be, but within fighting weight. I let sugar and white carbs back in daily....and here I am....unhappy with how I look and totally unhealthy...so unhealthy that I "grunt" when I bend down. We have a lot of snow and ice, and I use that as an excuse of not going to Zumba, even though I have the DVD's and plenty of options on my computer via youtube. I have extended the date that I would "start" so many times. My daughter in law is doing Isogenix, she lost 35 lbs since one of the times I was going to start! I have to do this, for me, for my future, for me health. I will do this. I can do this, and I pray that I don't forget how good it feels to feel good.
I can tell you that this isn't totally about looking good, I don't think I look "that bad". I feel "that bad". I feel out of breath, like a sausage in casing. I'm done. I want to be active, physical, healthy, limber, no aches and pains, heart healthy.
May God help me, I am going to need Him!!!
Blessings and Happy Scales...

ReplyDeleteIf you compare your "heavy me" photo to this one, I think you look leaner in your current "out of shape" photo than in your original one. I see muscle lines on your forearms and you're rockin' skinny jeans. Plus, you fit into those lovely, lean boots! Even though you may have gained some, I think you have the foundation to get back to where you were quickly. After a recent failure on WW, I too have been thinking about going back to the BFC. Jorge has moved on to other things but I think BFC low sugar works well for me. I might tweak it a little but the concept is solid and for those with the sugar sensitive body type, it's important! I hope you keep blogging because I've always kept an eye on your blog. Welcome back!
ReplyDeleteThank you :) I was a lot bigger around the middle before I started the BFC, now it the seems my extra weight has placed itself all over my body. I guess that's a good thing? ;) Thank you for commenting...as boring as I may be, I find I hold myself more accountable when I write my thoughts. Good luck to you!!! 2016 is going to be a great year!
DeleteI'm still lurking around Kay. I really miss our blogging days. I keep saying I'm starting back to it again, but always so much going on. I have not gained any of the 20 I lost, but I have not lost anymore and I still want to lose another 20. Still no wheat and very little grains for me. No sugar either, except for a once in a while bite of someone's dessert. You actually made goal once before so you know how to do it. Just go back to reading your blog posts and remember what you were doing and eating when it was working. I agree, it's about health now. Looking good is a bonus!! XO!
