OMG!

So super excited this morning! I woke up and got the courage to get on the scale. Now, this is something that I have avoided the last few weeks. Before the "warm weather season" got here, I topped the scale at 147 pounds. A few years ago, I worked my tail off to get down to 133 pounds, and magically, some of it reappeared .... maybe it missed me or something ... I don't know! But, anyway, that weight was not invited back. It's like that unwanted house guest that just shows up at your doorstep! Except mine landed on my front porch! (Get it? You call that extra skin on your stomach your front porch ... hahaha!)
A few weeks back I commited myself do getting healthy. Now, not just trying to lose weight but actually being fit and full of good foods. I'm a veggie hater and a chocolate lover! So this was really a struggle for me. By watching my calorie intake and exercising, I was able to lose a pound here and a half a pound there, but I still wasn't feeling "healthy". The cellulite was still there, the muffin top still made it's home around the top of my jeans, and my stomache still looked like my babies were just born ... they are 7 and 5.
I was frustrated. I felt that I was stuck in the mud and I couldn't get my feet and arms to move fast enough to get out. I have learned a lot about nutrition and excerise in the last few years. And I know that to change your body, you have to change your mind.
Well, I found my secret ... thanks to my new friend Darren Natoni. I started Shakeology 4 days ago ... in those 4 days I have lost 2 pounds! I can not wait to see what my body is going to do in 4 weeks ... 8 weeks ... even 12 weeks! I'll keep you posted!
