I just wanted to give out an apology for being away so long.
The last couple of weeks have been life changing for me. I closed a few
chapters in life and began some brand new chapters as well. Hopefully, I won’t
have to ever keep you waiting that long again for my posts. So first, let me catch you all up on my weight
loss. So I am officially down 40 lbs as of last week. Amazing isn’t it. I’ll be
posting before and after photos in aug/sept – which will bring me to my 1 year anniversary
of clean eating and regular exercise (the regular exercise has only been regular
for about a month to be honest). I just want to clarify that I have cheated on
this lifestyle change many, many times. Not to gloat, but just to share some of
my shortcomings. Like this weekend for instance, I had to have some pizza and
chocolate cake. I really felt terrible afterwards (my body doesn’t want the
junk food anymore). But my emotions were craving junk. I’m not perfect and every
day I learn something new about myself and how disciplined I am. When I fall short, I just get back up. I don’t
like to accept defeat in any area of my life. I have another 30 lbs before I
reach my goal weight. I’ve been working out about 5 days a week and I can
really see the difference. Others around me are starting to notice as well. Unfortunately,
I just had oral surgery (on 6/3/2015) (I
had braces installed in April and had to make room so my teeth can move). My
surgeon has advise me to modify to a light workout (like light walking only
after a week or so after surgery). This is so frustrating as I am on a roll and
don’t want to lose the momentum. Well, I’m hopping back on the treadmill today.
It’s been a week and I can’t wait any longer. I no longer feel that burn in my muscles
that I like to feel. Wish me luck today. Hope I don’t bust these stitches, LOL
(no seriously J)
I’ll keep posting random updates for those who are
interested.
