So many of you whom are reading this have been invited personally by me to join me on this journey because I consider many of you my rocks, you're my Oprah (if I'm Gail) and many of you have been there through thick an thin (literally) whether it would be walking, running, advice, push ups, this or that diet so I know you would probably like to follow along on this next journey (one in which I think might actually stick)
So if you haven't noticed yet and how could you not- I've gained 62 pounds since 2005 which has made me want to change my ways... but I haven't decided to do that until now because of fear of another failure
What pushed me over the edge was running this morning (an 8.8k if I might add) I realized that I am capable of losing this weight if I decide to commit to doing it, so I committed
May I introduce you to Dr Joel Furhman and his book "Eat to Live" not live to eat which may just have been my bestseller. I have known about this program for a while now because two very dear friends of mine swear by it- you not only look better but are transformed by the action of eating gooooooodddd foood...... What types of things will I be ingesting you might ask- lots of fruits, veggies, lentils, some nuts, a little meat (about 12oz a week I have decided) His book has a wealth of knowledge that I'll let you all check out on your own if you are interested
His website is http://www.drfuhrman.com/
Let's take a look at what we have to work with
So what can YOU expect from this blog- hopefully you can find some inspiration from me and vice versa, I will be uploading something everyday whether it be a little thought, a new recipe, a fear that I want to express, a joy to share, for me having a blog will keep me accountable and the ability for me to connect to you all and other out there who share the struggle- no one loves anything more than a good success story.
I will be updating the pictures, BMI and total loss percentage every week
Tootles for now guys..... xoxo
