I did it!!!!

Wow, it’s been so long since I checked in on here. I had completely forgotten about this, but I decided to check in. Sheesh, my goal was 150 and soon to be 140,  I weighed 167 at the first blog. I’m happy to say I am 147 as now. I feel proud of myself for ultimately breaking up with diet soda and avoiding super sugary snacks, althought they tend tempt me from time to time. All in all, I’ve forced myself to become even healthier and I’m very happy to see results and finally be able to fit into a medium size (:

It’s been a long road and I’m not even done yet. My ideal goal was 140, so let’s hope I can shed those last 7 pounds :P

I hope everyone on here is having fun reaching there goal.

Healthy blessings xo

No sugar?!

Hey guys, back again (:

I’m trying out a ‘test theory’, pretty much cutting out sugar. Now I know you’re probably thinking ‘aren’t you supposed to do that anyways?’ Yes, but it’s a little more tougher for me since I’m a diabetic. But I think I can make this work, and hopefully it’ll push me in the right direction to hitting my weight loss goal and maybe by next summer I’ll be a new me (:

Best wishes <3

Hello (: I’m new to this…but I’m willing…

Hello everyone (: Thanks for reading. I figured the best way to help myself is to be completely honest, so here it goes.

All my life, well up until I was around age 11, I struggled with weight. I was always a little pump, a little chubbier, but never leaner. I was picked on through out school and that made very self conscious still today. I can’t go anywhere without feeling people are looking at me with disgust, it’s such a paranoia factor, I want it to stop. I’ve almost tried dangerous diets, just desperate to fit in with the other girls, I would have jealously pangs whenever I was with my friend who was thinner than me. She was comfortable wearing anything she wanted, and I used to wonder what I would give to have that confidence.

 When I was 14, I was diagnosed with diabetes type 1, since it runs in the family very highly. That contributed to my weight gain as I was already 180 at the time. My insulin shots tend to make tired and susceptible to weight gain. It’s hard staying away from sweets when I need them when my blood sugar is down. I’ve let it control my life long enough, and my goal is to reverse it. To be healthier when I don’t depend on insulin shots.

I’m tired of playing games. I keep telling myself I want to lose weight, but that only lasts for two days. I’m really tired of feeling like crap, and just want to live my life the way I know I should. Which is to be healthy and happy. So far, I managed to lose 13 pounds. I’m at 167, my goal is to be 140 or less by next summer. I’ve cut out soda, usually only drinking water which has helped me lose that 13 pounds, but the rest refuse to go nowhere. I’m really trying to stick to no sugar/low sugar products for a week to test out a theory. If successful, I will continue to keep it up. It’s a very hard struggle, and it really does not help when I don’t have support from my family. I mean I work out them, but they still eat fatty foods, which is only more tempting to me, making me want to exile myself, which is not good.

Now ofcourse I work out 4-6 days a week, but I’m trying to change up my routine by taking classes and I really would like to try out Yoga.

I’m hoping to lose those last 25 pounds, would like to be sooner, but I need to remind myself it takes patience. I’m learning to shut up and put up. I need to stick with this in order to be happy, and not keep slacking. I’m hoping there is someone else on here who is going through what I’m going through, and perhaps together we can support each other  (:

May everyone find happiness and meet the goals they want to meet!

Happy Losing (:
