Trying to get my body back
As I reflect on my life over the years and really my health I feel motivated to get back into shape. I have always been into health, fitness and nutrition since I was a teenager. I was the girl that was in a beauty pageant in high school and was voted best looking of my Senior class. I did some modeling when I was 18 and 19. I don’t want to be that thin again although I was always shapely. I have the body type that has a small waist with thick legs and a Selena booty. lol
I never had a weight problem until 1996 when I was put on a med. that made me gain a considerable amount of weight. I have been on a roller coaster ride with my weight ever since. It’s been the hardest to lose weight once I hit 30 and had my first child at 33. I know once you hit the big 30 you lose muscle and as a result your metabolism slows down. I am making progress slowly, but surely. I know I can get my metabolism going again and gain lean muscle so that I will never have this problem again. It just gets frustrating sometimes. My husband doesn’t help either, he always wants to cheat and it pisses me off! My weakness is sweets and he was practically bringing home donuts or slices of chocolate cake all week. I finally said no and if he wanted to splurge then don’t do it around me! I think he likes me over weight because he feels all eyes are on me and I’m an attention getter. blah, blah, blah. Well, I don’t try to get attention, I guess I’m just naturally sexy because of my diverse and exotic background. I don’t mean to sound shallow or conceited because I am far from it. To me beauty is only skin deep and the true beauty that remains comes from within.
I just have to have to be strong enough to resist the temptation. When I feel the urge to splurge I can just look back at a time I was happy with my appearance and think I’m gonna get there again! So please if you’re in the same boat or have any helpful tips enllighten me…
