Food is sooo addictive!! Lord have mercy! I am slowly weaning myself off the EAT Everything diet into the eat to live and lose some weight diet, but the food calls me….whoa! I swear I think I’m a drug addict to food; its hilarious; we had to clean the house out of all the goodies so I don’t sneak to it at night!! I have to make sure I don’t get coffee at Dunkin Donuts cause How can I resist the Croissant! I commute sixty miles to work everyday, and try my best not to stop in a service station because I may have to pick up some munchies for the road……Don’t let me drive by a Mc Donald’s cause the smell of the fries may make me do a u-turn in the middle of the road……somebody stop me! They should make an intervention show for people like me……….It won’t have anything on the new biggest loser…..Oh my goodness, the people on the show were really saddening; I know that food is an addiction, I need to break the addiction for me and so I don’t pass it on to my kids……

Okay so I have been on meds for the past three months and my doctor told me that I should be prepared to stay on them until at least May, well with these meds you need to eat, hence my 30 pounds weight gain. Why? you may ask, because no matter how much I ate I still felt sick after taking the meds, I would have to eat a big meal to feel better. Well, through trials I figured out that Muscle Milk light would coat my stomach enough to help alleviate the sick feeling in the my stomach. So Last night I drank my shake and took my meds, I was fine until I decided to lay down to go to sleep; you know how you get that sick feeling in your stomach and your mouth waters; I knew I was going to throw up……I ran downstairs (yes, my bathroom is one floor down) and just threw up badly………I really hate this!! But I can’t live in this body one more second…so I cleaned myself up; feed myself some light turkey breast on whole wheat to coat my stomach and went to bed; this morning I went to a spinning class and decided not to give up!! This is TRULY TOUGH!! But I have to make the commitment to myself and my family to get my body where it needs to be, plus I finally want to feel good in my own skin!!!

If you are like me and have made it a goal to lose more than 40 pounds this year; lets band together and start a group here on Bodyspace, I’m not to sure how to use the new system but I think we can all provide support for eachother. We can share our diet, workouts and talk openly when we are ready to quit or on the verge of eating a snickers bar!! So lets give it a try –Join!

I have been hoping, wishing and praying that I could lose some weight and gain some great muscles…..it was at times very difficult going at it on my own, since my husband did not want to hear of anything that had to do with exercise or nutrition so last year I chose to ignore my entire family and lost over thirty pounds on my own, unfortunately I got extremely sick and was not allowed to exercise and had to take these horrible meds that made me sooo sick if I didn’t eat so needless to say I gain a lot of the weight back. I was all set to start my diet at the beginning of the year, when my hubby said that he was ready to lose some weight and we were going to do it together!! YES! I am beyond excited!! There is no stopping a duo in the quest to lose weight, the support we will provide eachother is going to be great! I’m so happy!!
