Been a minute since I posted the latest on me....So I have been working out for about 6 weeks now. I only lost 2 pounds and inches here and there...(sigh) even though that is nothin I still have a positive outlook about losing weight. I strongly believe that I will be at my goal weight in due time.
been looking up quick fixes such as lap band, liposuction, tummy tuck- which i probably wont consider a tummy tuck because you will not be able to have a normal pregnancy and i do plan on having more children in the future. Sometimes i think to myself i rather just pay the money since I can't be consistent and true to a diet. I'll never considered any of these options because i know I can get up and work out and diet...im just hard headed and not in my right mind when it comes to dieting.
I can say I am proud that I have gotten into the habit of even going to the gym 2 to 3 hours...4 days a week and exercising. (pats self on the back lol)
For someone that would go and when the 1st sweat fell i would be out. To now and days completely sweating my hair out....and my chest and back full of sweat .I know its not gonna happen over night. And for me to loose this weight i know I have to be dedicated to it. but I can't seem to program my mind to believe that.
The recent update on me is i have been goin to the gym exercising...sometimes i be in my zone listening to music or doing the class that I loose track of time. and I end up being there longer then expected. which is good...I know my problem is eating. The time of day i eat, how much i eat, how much im intaking (which means the same thing), what kinds of food im eating.
If i can master the eating healthy part then I think my diet would be alot easier. And then there are those times when ill do so well with eating and exercising during the week that when the weekend hits...its a different story. I'll have a drink or two with the girls or we go hit out olive garden and I wont make a healthy choice selection....smh...i understand i have to make better choices in what i eat....trust and believe i know that and i understand. Im pretty sure we ALL are aware and know what we need to do...the problem we have is doing it and sticking to it.
i need to ask myself how bad i wanna loose weight...and is this really important to me? my answer to that is yes and no. No because even though im not losing weight i feel like im doing alot...i dont sit on my ass and eat all day. I have a full time job,and a part time job, a 3 year old that i watched alone during the day we do things together such as going to the park or playing together, then i have to get a nap in somewhere, and then i have to manage my food intake throughout the day. I usually go to the gym around 5ish....don't get out till about 7 ish most of the time and then i try to take a nap and then i go to work at 11...my day always consist of taking care of my daughter, sleeping, work, gym....and i eat in between it all
and yes because I know the long term effects of being obese.yes because i dont like what i see in the mirror and I want it to change...yes because i want to be a healthier me. For me! For my child!
i use to snack alot during my shift 11pm to 7am (night auditor) because no one is around after about 3am the hotel is dead and i have nothing to do...so a snack will turn into about 3 to 4 snacks....since ive been going to the gym regularly, ive been drinking water like crazy and i only have 1 snack when i work..and whenever i feel hungry i just drink a bottle of water and that urge for food goes away...(temporary) but i forget im hungry and find something to do....
when it comes to exercising im doing cardio everyday (about a hour) and weight training 2x a week, my water intake has increased. (now im peeing every 5 minutes lol) Just purchased my 1st juicer...which i love so im new to the whole juicing thing but im trying some different stuff i like...with the juicer im getting my serving of vegetables and fruits and more. .............So im on the right track i jus think i need a little more discipline on my part. and maybe work out a better schedule on when to eat vs. eating on the go...or grabbing something quick....
With God all things are possible and I'm enjoying the ups and downs of this diet! I love reading everyone's stories I love all the encouragement thankyou all who took the time out to read this ir give feedback its appreciated.
Take Care of yourself, be healthy, exercise, always have a positive attitude when dieting, and be happy! ----Danielle
