So I started a diet/exercise regime 2 weeks ago. I haven’t gone this long since a few months after my 3 year old was born. At that time I did the “eat little and small portions” diet, which in the end wasn’t good because I wasn’t eating enough calories and ended up gaining it back. I had also tried, last May, the MasterCleanse aka “The lemonade diet”. 15 days of a diet that consisted of a Salt Water Flush, a homemade lemonade recipe and a laxative tea. Sounds fun, right? When I look back, it was great. The first few days were tough. No coffee and of course, no food!
I had lost 14 lbs and best of all, got rid of many issues I was having like my vertigo (dizziness). I was supposed to end it with a new lifestyle of wholesome foods, but I cheated left and right and gained the weight back, then some.
SOOOOO…here I am 14 days into a low-carb diet. So far so good! I’m really excited!! I have a bunch of ‘milestones’ this year to look forward to. My big 3-0 in June, For Your Pleasure convention in July (I WILL be wearing a sexy dress on awards night!), The FYP trip I earned to Italy in October and then New Years!! I have 55 lbs to lose. I’m down 6…woohoo! LOL I also signed up for Curves, which I’ve done before and absolutely LOVE because it’s so quick. After 2 workouts so far…I can feel more muscle and my body is becoming stronger. I can’t wait to go back tomorrow!! I’ll be updating my progress… wish me luck!
