Hello again my freaky darlings!!
So as some may know but as most may not, I have made some changes in my life to get healthier and this blog has a lot of entries showing what some of them are. I am going to share with you a quick little peek into my world so you will know where I am coming from and where I am going.
The first change I had to make was .... Letting go of the drama in life. I used to dwell over things and bend over backwards to fix issues all the time. I had to take a good hard look at myself and realize I can not sweat the small stuff anymore. Life is too short to dwell over things I can not change ...be it people or just how things are in life and that is tough ... LIFE IS TOUGH! if it were a cake walk it would be boring so I embraced that and I have been a lot better health wise just from that.
My second change was I quit smoking. BEST DECISION EVER!! Yes I am vaping ... not an e-cig those look and make you feel like you are still smoking and that was not what I was wanting. They are also put out by the tobacco companies and have been rumored to have chemicals in them still. I know exactly what is in my vape juice and it has been awesome sleeping, singing, and walking ALL with out loosing my breath like I used to when on those death sticks. Like I said best decision ever!
My third change has been to my eating habits. I have been eating salads, trying to stay away from bread and pasta. I have been eating my veggies like a good girl too. If you read my foodie posts you will know I have even been eating spinach. * shock and aww* I drink around 2500 ml of water a day AND keep healthy snacks on hand so I do not reach for a bowl of chips.
One of the biggest helping hands I have on my side is not just my wonderfully supportive family , who love me for me and are not judging me for being a BBW but are behind me 110% on getting healthy, is Plexus. It has boosted the changes I have made. This week I have lost 5 pounds and it was Thanksgiving week... the worst cheat day next to Christmas!Another " I have to be off my rocker " things is I am looking forward to taking my month after picture and THAT is saying a lot... I hate pics of myself. Ohhh example..... my Sarah, she is like a sister so I call her My Sarah(sister), anywho she took a pic of us to go along with one she found of us as kids. She then posted it on facebook!!! I wasn't unhappy!! WOW I wasn't unhappy seeing my face on facebook... cause it wasn't the same old face anymore. I could see where it was changing... my chin, my cheeks. I did the happy chair dance when I finished looking at it. Anywho my point is I love Plexus and how it is helping me reach my goal of getting healthy.
So please tell me you have noticed how I am NOT hell bent loosing weight , I am not dieting or starving myself and I do not have a picture of a 100 pound rag doll in my head. Please tell me you have noticed that I am getting healthy. I am making healthier choices when it comes to my food, I am walking quicker when grocery shopping and moving more then I was. These small changes are helping me reach my goal of Healthy. That might be 250 pounds... that might be 200 pounds. All I know is it is not the 334 pounds I started out at over a week ago. I am trying to focus on a 80/20 mind set. I am not going to kick my butt if I have a cheat food as long as that cheat does not happen more then 20% of the month. I am hoping this helps me stay on my road to healthy and keep these changes I have made active and not get saddened when my family has a juicy cheeseburger and I am having a grilled chicken breast.
I look forward to being a much healthier Christi in 2014. Why? Cause I have so many things I am missing out on and I am done missing out.
TTFN my freaky darlings!!!
