that's what a friend told me last night. it's been more than 2 weeks now and i don't see any visible results. and i'm now on 25 squeezes every morning, straight, each day getting more difficult than the next.
but i don't need to drink a vitamin c supplement anymore. and i go at least once a day now [major improvement, i tell you]. but i'm also taking kelp, vinegar, and lecithin which i get from healthy options. i drink 2 tablets twice a day. plus i take tea every night.
all i need to do is lay off on the sweets and carbs and start exercising. yep, i admit, the pilates teacher hasn't seen my shadow since my last training package. grrrrr.
so i try not to be so disappointed in me and push on even if i'm hating myself right now. i refuse to go on a diet as i know i'll just go easy on it at the littlest sign of weight loss. how do i change my eating habits and how do i motivate myself to move more?
how do i not wait for it? how do i not look in the mirror and scrutinize at the reflection i see? how do i win this fight? will someone please give me an answer.
I say don't slide back.. I noticed how people who want to lose weight go back to eating because of little success. Just keep on doing what you're doing.. discipline disciple discipline.. and persevere.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard and it won't be easy because it asks us to give up carbs and sweets, but the end result will make you feel good about yourself.
One more thing, never scrutinize yourself in the mirror.. because it'll take away your self confidence. I have learned to love my imperfections and work hard on the good things. I take health seriously not for vanity, but for my boys and for the future.
You can do it.. I PROMISE YOU GOOD RESULTS AS LONG AS YOU DO YOUR SHARE. Promise.. promise.. I swear! you can do it...
thank you Mai, there aren't really any right or wrong answers are there. i just wanted to scream out my frustration as i've been battling the bulge since i can remember. i've had successes yes and they were either because i counted each and every calorie i took in or because i spent 2 hours in the gym daily, sometimes twice a day. that last one landed me in the hospital due to asthma caused by fatigue.
ReplyDeleteand when i was younger it was so easy to lose the belly. now, its like no matter what i did, the belly stays.
i sigh. but thanks for the big PUSH and for cheering me on. i promise to make the gym my first stop tomorrow. i really gotta sign up now. =D
