Two months into
Beachbody and 21 Day fix. I am down to 334lbs, YAY!, that is 15lbs down and I
am so proud of myself.
I still battle with
my food love-hateship often but am winning more and more these days. I am even
finding I prefer the healthier choices. Salads offer a huge variety of options
for me and I do not have to feel like I always eat the same thing day after
day. And Fruit, OMG fruit, it is like the sweetest most enjoyable thing ever. I
have always liked fruit but often forget that it is there, it is sweet and it
is healthy. I figure “oh if I’m going to eat something sweet and bad for me it
may as well be ice cream or chocolate” but fruit is a great way to satisfy a
sweet craving and still be fueling your body.
Shakeology is the
best meal replacer I have ever found. A big part of that is because I really do
not like the taste of whey protein and Shakeology offers vegan choices. Also
though I enjoy the taste of it, the way it keeps me full for several hours and
the energy I feel from not eating a mcmuffin and hash brown for breakfast! No
more slow, sluggish mornings for me, well or days really. When I stick to
healthier choices I notice that I feel less weighed down.
I am doing so well
that I am going to be participating in the Race for the Cure Sept. 25th!!!!!!
I have never been able to walk for 3 miles without serious pain in my knees and
days of recovery. I have 19 days left to get to the 3 mile goal but we have been
doing 1.5-2 miles a day for about a week now and have minimal pain. If you want

On a final note here
are pictures taken Sept. 4th, I do not see a huge difference but
know that I will one day soon.
