As you all know I'm changing up my eating habits and exercising so I can be healthy. I was in denial about it for a really long time. It took some photos from my bday which I will NOT post to crank that lightbulb. It wasn't pretty. Let's just say my heart sank.
So I've been taking pictures of myself. Hair. Skin. Body. Documenting the progress of myself as a whole. I have some pictures I will put on here and I think it will be good in the long run as far as something to look back on. A reminder.
I'm about 5'4 & as of Sunday I weighed in at 179 lbs. A big stretch from the 160-165 range that I was used to. Even further from the 130 I maintained my 4 years in h.s. I even almost had a 6 pack lol Now like I said I'm not tryna be thin I'm focused on being healthy.
WARNING : Some of these photos are not cute lol I am making some weird faces that I cannot explain at this time. It's not for fashion though so it's okay :) I need to see myself clear in my mind. I need the motivation.
Now I love my body and I appreciate what I was given but inside I'm not healthy nor happy. I don't wanna lose what I was blessed with. I just want to tone and be alright. That is all.
I'm currently on a 1635 calorie a day restriction and it's going really well. I have more energy and I don't feel the need to overeat. I count my calories using myplate on livestrong.com. I just need to change the foods up a little. I wanna start eating more clean. I've been drinking a lot of water and I've been doing belly dance and reg. dance but soon I will start strength training with pilates. I record my measurements every Thurs. & as of right now I weigh in every Sunday.
I see a real change in my skin and my hair and my stomach is starting to look a little different.
I'm stepping out on faith and I know I will be fine.
Happy Healthy Life & all that confetties/glitters!
