I'm doing the happy dance on my scale! Gone 13 lbs. Over the course of 78 days, starting June 5th, my weight went from 153 lbs. to 140 lbs! I am approximately 1/3 of the way to reaching my goal of 120 lbs. I have not set a weight loss by date, as I didn't what to start stressing (resulting in eating more) if the date started to approach and weight was not coming off.Since trying to loose weight was a foreign thing to me, I did not know quite where to start. What I did know was that this had to be a lifestyle change and not a quick fix "DIEt". After trying to research things on my own and becoming even more confused than when I started - Seriously, have you seen/read all the Quick Fix crap that is out there? It all sounds good in the beginning, but living on juices or diet pills for life is not an option I want.
One of the challenges I am faced with is the medications I need to take for pain, head aches, anxiety and mood etc. Medication though it helps also causes other challenges - water retention, constipation, toxins and excessive work for digestive organs which can't keep up with all the additional stress in processing = excess weight.
After consulting with one of my doctors, reflexologist, nutritionist and friends who take a holistic approach to living, a plan of action was created.
