I am on a path to being healthy and happy in 2012. I have an amazing husband, family, and puppies! However, something is not perfect; my weight and energy. I feel so lethargic and mad everyday. I am mad at myself, mad at others for being so perfect and skinny. I am mad at myself because my self-control has reached an all time low since my wedding. I had lost over 20 pounds for my wedding. Weeks before I started back on the binge.
I began to lose weight because I was diagnosed as pre-diabetic (type 2). My dad has type 2. It is so scary to think of me having diabetes. It is something that I know I can prevent and must prevent. Fad diets are ridiculous; I realize this. There have been things that have worked and others that haven't.
I have three simple goals:
1. Be at my goal weight of 160-170 (I'm 6'0)
2. Eating Healthy with no fear of diabetes
3. Run a half-marathon or walk; Just finish!
I am a big fan of Jorge Cruise. I somehow trust former overweight people in helping me on my road to recovery. Food is my addiction! Jorge Cruise is the founder of the Belly Fat Cure. I know I mentioned fad diets are stupid, but this diet is something that allows me to enjoy eating and not concern myself with sugar. Basically, you eliminate the "bad" sugar and "bad belly" foods from your diet. It is great! I can have bacon but cant have milk. I can have bread but not too much. I follow a great blog about another person who has been successful in this lifestyle; meandjorge.blogspot.com
I am excited to run! I want to be that runner girl. Never have I wanted to be a fast runner, just run! Its great cardio, plus it is something that I can achieve despite having a minor disability. I have a club foot. I have had over 12 surgeries on it and have struggled and overcome so much; running cant be that hard.
My workouts will consists of Jillian Michaels video's kicking my A$$, youtube exercise gurus, pinterest post of workouts and running! Here's some inspiration and ideas I am going to definitely use.
So here I go a month late but a fresh start!
