It is the night before I start Live the Life and I have decided to create a blog so I can document and share my experiences. I need somewhere that I can vent and be honest about how I feel. I also know that this will help hold me accountable, something that I struggle with.
I have done Live the Life before. The first time was after I had my first child and I had great results. I felt great and I was really happy. I got to one of lowest weights in my adulthood. Then I got pregnant with my second child. That child is now 19 months and I am at my heaviest. I don't know where I have gone wrong. I have yoyo dieted for the last year and half. I have not stuck to one thing and I am sure that that has something to do with my increase in weight. I even tried to do live the life a couple times but both times they fell through. It is time consuming and not super practical but I know it works and it really does make sense. I NEED to do this! Not only to lose weight but to prove to myself that I can stick to something and finish it.
The mental game in my head is going to be rough and it is going to be a minute by minute challenge. I know what I am supposed to do and I have the tools to do. The only thing standing in my way is myself.
I pulled out our home videos today for a Sunday activity and I watched a few where I was at my lowest and doing live the life and I miss that person. I don't know who I am anymore.
My plan is to go the grocery store first thing in the morning so I have everything I need to start tomorrow. I will prep the food for the week throughout the day. I am supposed to go St. George on thursday and I would normally just eat whatever I want when I go out of town but I am going to stick to it even though it will be hard. It will be worth it.
My goal for week 1 is to lose 2 lbs and not cheat once.
I can do this!
