The weight loss challenge.
Yes Challenge. I say that with a sore heart and fat grabbing
on to dear life on my body as it is a challenge to get rid of it. About a year
ago I began a weight loss challenge without joining the gym. I went back to the
cheap basics, Jogging, skipping and indoor workouts and green smoothies. Yes I was
doing all that is needed and I loved every minute of it. It became a lifestyle
to a point that if I wanted to have pizza I could but in moderation because I
appreciated what it took to get me to the point that I was at. I lost a lot of
good weight and my body toned up. Still was not at my desired weight but I
could still rock a crop top like a carefree teenager. Then.. Sigh... love
happened.
Now hear me out, I
always said I am not the type to let love get in the way of me and who I am,
especially with my weight because I worked damn hard for it. I fell in love and
the time that I use to spend on my body I had to compromise on the love of my
life. Bit by bit. And bit by bit with the more time I spent with him I ate more
and stopped completely exercising. Then we moved in together. Ahg...all hope
was lost. And the tighter my clothes got the less I looked myself in the
mirror. Then we decided to join the gym. I think in a space of four months I
went like 12 times. Money wasted.
So. Here i am, back to a semi square one. I have started and
got all my workout videos and then some. Aaaahhh Jillian Michaels! My hero!
So I
am beginning this weight loss challenge with him. Not like he needs it. He is
still the same size he was since the day we met. So my challenge with him is
that who is going to get a six pack first. A bit silly and farfetched I know
considering he is much skinnier and a man! But it’s the only way to push myself
and him. So I will try to be brave and share my before pics and progress pics
when there are any with you. Along the way trying out what works and what
doesn’t work for my body and digestive system with food. I will also try and
report back with all quick fix natural weight loss remedies. Home remedies that
is. I have been trying out some so I will be able to give feedback soon on
them.
So below are the before pictures! *cries and cringes*.
Gosh I look a bit on the expecting in 6 months side. But I promise,
I am not. Lol.
