So, here we go again. This time though, I had to resort to extreme measures but I also need to learn how to live healthier so I can quit doing this. That is the good thing though... It has been 6 years since the first time I started the weight loss journey & I'm didn't go back to the very beginning but I was getting dangerously close. I did well up until the past year & a half. Mentally & emotionally I can't keep this up. My life is just too busy for me to try to do this on my own. One of my best friends finally convinced me to try Advocare. I am on day 4! Day 2 was awful... I was so "hangry"!!! I just hate the restrictions... Eating every 2 hours, Protein & veggies every meal, fruits 2-3 times/ day, & only a few carbs twice a day. This is the cleanse part so it takes a big effort to rid my body of all that crap I put in my body. After day 10, it will ease up... Thank God!!! Perri came home yesterday & wanted to eat some of my fruit. This pretty much sums up my reaction!!
The other great thing about Advocare is the vitamins that I will remain on. As I approach my 40s (still 3+ years!!), I have to accept that my body is changing. I want to enter them feeling the best I can & prepared to take on the second half of my life. I also know that this half-marathon will be easier if I'm carrying less weight as I run :) I've already committed to it so there's no backing out!
Time for lunch of my lean protein, veggies & maybe even a carb :)
