Before the Brawl

Hello everyone, missed me I am sure :)

The Cuisinart was delivered and we got right to work. My husband and best friend is a huge supporter and we are on this journey together. 

Below I will post the before pics of the challenge we are embarking on.  After, we will be juicing for 7 day detox and starting the transformation with exercise and change in eating habits.

Again, let me say that this is not easy, however if this process helps just one person realize that our "temple" is important and they too can change their lives one bite at a time, then it will all be worth it.

This is what my midsection looks like almost one year after having four babies in five years.  Needless to say my diet played a huge part, however having babies so close together did not allow for me to get rid of a lot of the weight in between.

I will be sharing update pics, recipes, exercises, good days, bad days etc with all of you.Live your best life.

Thank you for subscribing, sharing and liking these posts.  Leave me a comment, let me know how I can help or just your thoughts.

Cuisinart Ordered!

 

So the juicer is ordered. Once it gets here, the detox begins.  I have been weaning myself and getting ready. I can sense that there will be some withdrawal from coffee, sweets etc..

By the grace of God I am ready.  Once the juicer gets here I will have some pictures taken for your benefit, my dismay and encouragement :)

All things work together for good. (Romans 8:28). As a child of God I have a goal to see my children grow up if this is what the Lord desires for me, therefore I must take better care of my temple.

Thank you for subscribing and supporting me through this journey.  Please share it with others.

Looking forward to next week...over and out...God bless

Don't ask where have I been. I am here to tell you all that I just watched "Fat, Sick and Nearly dead" and coupled with the conversation I had with my husband today, I am done with being overweight.

It needs to be said I had four babies in five years, last one being 11 months old.  I lost some of the weight BUT I got stuck with this 3 month pregnancy looking stomach that is not at all attractive.  It looks the worst in clothes and yes we do have to wear those don't we?

I will be juicing for a ten day detox and then if all goes well, continuing to juice and change my diet.  Apparently these changes do not mean I cannot have the occasional favorite however they cannot be my staples.

My downfall has always been sweets.........cookies, cakes, ice cream, whole milk, chips.  I have SEVERELY cut back as we do not feed them to our children and therefore do not keep as much of it in the house as we used to, however, I still eat them more regularly that I should.

After finishing watching the documentary I made sure to go to the kitchen and eat the last of the chocolate chip cookies that were still here (4).

I will post the pic of my before later today and since we have also been on a financial overhaul, in a months time my juicer will be purchased.  In the meantime I will start to prepare by changing some of the little things.

I will document this journey via this blog and my prayer is that it will encourage someone else to take control of their bodies and stop treating it like a toilet and start treating it like a waterfall. Guilty as charged and now I am learning better I will do it no more.

Please comment and share this information with everyone.  Thanks for the support.  I endeavor to be as honest as possible and as candid so that this journey is beneficial to all of us.

I am no blog expert however by the end of this journey I may learn a thing or two.

THE GOAL IS TO BE HEALTHY AND FIT......WEIGHING 140LBS IN A YEAR.   I WILL PROBABLY GET THERE IN A MONTH BY JUICING AND EXERCISE, HOWEVER I WILL BE SHARING WITH YOU MY CHALLENGES AND CHANGES OVER THE NEXT YEAR!!!

Signed,

Disgusted and Excited  :)
