Hi everyone! My name is Cintia and I started MFP 2 weeks ago. I never counted calories, I thought for so long that if i moderate myself to eat whatever I wanted, it should be ok, well, I was wrong.
After the holidays I found myself with 5 more lbs, a terrible headache and eating sweets like crazy again.
I cant notice them (the lbs) on my pants, but I can notice them on my head... lol... the point is, I get very bad headaches when I eat a lot of sweets, and I get dizzy, call it a side effect maybe. My journey started on August 2011 when the doctor prescribed me pills for diabetes. Im in a low dosage, but that alone was enough for me to start taking my life and my health seriously.
I cant deny it, I've been very proud of myself for the effort and all the lbs (40lbs at the time) I lost.
Yesterday, my reality was 183.4lbs. It hurt. Very much.
But I know that even when I lost a battle, the war didnt end yet and I can win it!
So, for those out there that dont know what to do there's one think I (and you) should never do: QUIT! never quit, never give up, is my health (and your health) what is on the table. Would u play with it? I dont want to anymore. For almost 15 years Ive been playing dangerously, and now I am paying the consequences.
MFP it's been a great help for the past 2 weeks. Yesterday was successful and today I know it will be as well.
I dont have many friends yet, as I am still very new and need to get familiar with the website, but I have read so many successful stories that inspired me to keep this journey. For me, yesterday was again day 1, the first out of many other first... but it is ok... the most important matter now is that i didnt throw the towel, no?
If you want pls add me as ur friend! I would love some support and feedback every day after the diary is done.
So today remember to love urself, love others and live ur life the way u want to: free of guilt, misery and eating healthy!
All the best for this week.
Cheers! for a successful one and to a better you.
Blessings,
Cintia ☼
