So i have decided to kick it into high gear and finally start getting serious about weightloss. After working full time in the weight loss industry i just wanted a break from the consumption it was bringing to my life and causing me so much grief in general.
So..it began last week and im already down 5 lbs! Im stubborn..really really stubborn so i can do a great job at saying no to things i know i shouldnt have. Im human and i will fail but i know how great i feel at my goal weight, how much sexier i feel for my husband..how much better i am for my kids. Its amazing how it affects ur entire life!
After Mataiya was born i was EXTREMELY exhausted..i know to most moms with a new born this is a very normal side affect, so at first i just brushed it off and chalked it up to her birth. And then, it was increasingly getting worse and starting to worry me. This was after 6-8 hours of straight sleep (ivon takes the night shift) and 2 naps during the day i was STILL dragging my feet and i could never get enough rest. Now i am thinking maybe i have cancer, maybe i have a severe infection my body is trying to fight, maybe i am pregnant again, i couldnt figure it out. Well...i have cut out most starches from diet (breads, pasta, cereal, etc.) and i feel 100 x better. I can get up early in the morning and last till evening. Some days i could go for a nap (what mom doesnt enjoy a mid afternoon nap) but for the most part i feel not too bad. So, i will probably always try to avoid them and stick to other sources for my carbs (fruit n veggies)!
I am excited about all of this...and i am excited about the reward..when i get to my goal weight (which is 20lbs away) i have to rubber bins FULL of clothes to wear AND my husband has promised me a little shopping trip followed by dinner at moxies..cant wait :)
