in Introduce Yourself
Hey everyone! Im writing this post because i never did introduce myself, and and in sense im starting right now at 6 in the morning, no more im going to do it tomorrow, no more ive already eaten one meal so i may as well finish the day off. I want to be healthy, I want to have a good long life, And i dont want to be struggle with my weight and feeling uncomfortable my whole life. My Issue is that last 8 years ive done nothing but yo yo diet ive been down to 145 and up to almost 200lb and i have extreme body issues. This last year i had to quit job and being that it was a very very active job It has been reallly hard for me to keep the lbs off. I still work out alot however in the last 5 months alone ive gone from 158 to 175...and im sick of it, I want to do it Right I want to do it Healthy. I have an issue with binge eating that started about 9 months ago, Never ever had that problem before so im hoping i can nip it before it gets worse then it already is. Im here from some motivation, for some help :) I have already eaten breakfast of sugary cereal...but instead of saying okay i will start tomorrow then like i always do im starting today! any feedback is always great!

    Hi Courtney,

    I am not going to tell you that you have a medical condition,I do not know your personally, or your medical history...
    However, what I can tell you is that I can relate to what you mean when you state "I don't want to be struggling with my weight and feeling uncomfortable my whole life", and "I am sick of it". I feel exactly the same way. I have come to face the facts that at this point in my life, I HAVE to get the weight off & FOLLOW THRU due to health reasons. I think that everyone of us can say 'Yeah, I would rather eat a donut and coffee for breakfast any day, versus a piece of fruit and yogurt", or I would rather eat a Pizza for dinner, versus healthy protein and a salad". There are soo many wonderful ways to make "clean and healthy" food flavorful & delicious, and I can gladly help you with that if you need me to. This may help you with the binging to think of it this way... If you were to buy a Brand New Vehicle & it got a Big Scratch in the paint that same day, would you keep letting the car get scratched, to ruin the paint? Of course not, so why eat "clean and healthy" for a part of, or a whole day, and then sabotage yourself by "Cheating" and using the excuse we all know too well "I've already ruined my day, oh well..
    .there's always tomorrow". Hopefully, that helps, and you have a great weekend!

    Regards,

    M-
