Can you say HUGE?

Huge...that is what I see now! I was morbidly obese, as they say in the medical field. I knew I was somewhat heavy, but I certainly didn't see what I see now. I was killing myself by means of overeating and gaining weight. I look at that picture, and I cannot believe that I allowed myself to get that way and that no one sat down to seriously talk to me to tell me how horribly FAT I was.

My eyes are open now, and I will NEVER EVER let myself do that to my body again. I deserve the best and the best is to eat healthy and properly and to exercise my body. It is so simple, yet in those days, it just did not click. And it's funny, because even when you are doing Weight Watchers, you can eat absolutely everything, but it just has to be in the right portions. So it's not like I am suffering now, or I am starving, but now I am eating correctly, exercising and all this still includes space for some chocolate in MODERATION!!!

A new mindset, a new me. Thank God!!!

Breakfast
Black Coffee = 0 points
Lunch
3 Hard Boiled Eggs = 6 points
Grilled Veggies = 0 points
Tomato = 0 points
Dinner
Chicken = 4 points

Don't wait to let your life pass you by. Do what you have to do and do it NOW!

Sea ya!!

Do Plateaus Actually Exist?

I was reading on what to do if you hit a plateau, and here are the suggestions.

Up the calories for two days and lower them for two days and do this for a couple of weeks.
Split the workouts so that you are boosing your metabolism.
Change the exercise routine.
Move around more in your daily schedule.
Get Real, by actually analyzing what you are eating and getting back to basics.

So what I will be doing is that while I walk for an hour, I will jog at least 1 minute every 10 minutes of walk time. During work hours, I will make it a point to take a little walk every hour. Lastly, I will be doing the 13 day diet beginning tomorrow, because this will reduce my carb and sweet intake.

I won't give up. I WILL BE AT GOAL WEIGHT BY THE END OF THE MONTH!!!

Breakfast
Activia Yogurt = 2 points
Lunch
Salad = 6 points
Snack
Chocolate= 2 points
Dinner
8 points available

I will have a good walk/jog today for over an hour!

Sea Ya!!

What Was I Thinking??????

Really, what the hell was I thinking? How did I allow myself to get like that. I am scanning old albums, and when I come across a picture like this, it pisses me off. Did I not see what was happening in the mirror? I know that I was not happy with my body, yet I did nothing about it. If I could do it all over again, I would take care of my body as if it were gold. I would NEVER let myself get more than 10 pounds overweight. We were living to eat, with no exercise, when you should eat to live with exercise.

I guess, we can't erase the past, and my body will never forgive me for it, so all I can do is change my present and future. I will continue my exercise and eating moderately and healthy.

Breakfast
Slice of Raisin Toast = 1 point
Cereal = 2 points
Milk = 2 points
Lunch
Grilled Fish = 4 points
Rice = 2 points
Tostones = 4 points
Bread = 2 points
Dinner
Fish = 2 points
Total = 19 points

Only you can decide what you will put in your body!!
