About My Journey

You know that something has to change when you hit rock freakin bottom and you can't stand to see yourself either in the mirror or a highly enhanced, major edited professional photo. This is where I was. God doesn't want me to be like this. I'm meant for so much more. Why am I selling myself short? Join me on my journey through my over all healthier lifestyle!

Never tell yourself that you'll blog daily...

Cause it won't happen. Well, In my life it won't. Since it's been 6 months since I've posted anything, why not start today. Let me catch you up. Yes I'm still trying to eat better and lose weight. No I didn't stick with Weight Watchers. There's nothing wrong with weight watchers. Nothing at all. It just isn't for me. It gave me to much freedom to eat the foods I loved the most and justify eating it because I was counting it's "points". Some people it works magic. Truly it does. But just not for me. Still down 10 lbs from when I started on this journey which is good I guess. But could you imagine if I would've really stuck with it and tried harder. I could've been at my goal by now. But that's ok. I'm still down. Here's what I'm doing now.
Actual healthy eating. It's a lot more structured. Laid flat out for you. Morning... Tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar (WHOA) 1 egg 1 egg white Sometimes a slice of avocado with it 1 grapefruit and 1 apple juiced ( You can eat them whole but I decided to juice them instead. Easier to eat) Lunch Tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar Salad with either chicken or steak Tomatoes Peppers Whatever veggie I want to go along with the salad Dinner Tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar (really! 3 times a day) Steak or chicken again along with a veggie. I usually do sauteed mushrooms or asparagus. Another grapefruit and apple juiced Before bed... A couple bites of low fat cottage cheese and strawberries or grapes
So that's it. My daily routine. I'm not going to lie, some days it's hard. And I can't say I've been on top of it but It's been a whole lifestyle change that I see has become normal. I know things that I can't eat at all and things I can splurge on every now and then. When I'm on top of it I feel better. I have more energy. Here's to Happy Eating!!! A couple of pictures to catch you up!
