Weigh in day…drumroll

Posted by: londonjulz In: General| Goals| Weigh-Ins

Yep. 3 days ago I weighed 202.  Today I weigh 198.8.
Now. I will stop here and say that I have made drastic changes in how I eat simply in shocking my body and for me to gain some kind of self control over my cravings for the immediate and long-term future.  I haven’t been starving [...]

day 3

Posted by: londonjulz In: General| Goals| Life

Day 3.  And I have made it through another entire day with SUCCESS!!  No junk.  No crap.  No trash food.
Today, I never experienced a headache.  BUT, my skin on my face is SOOOOO oily!   I’ve seriously never noticed it being this oily before.  I have read that this can be a symptom of “detox”.  I [...]

Starting weight…

Posted by: londonjulz In: Goals| Weigh-Ins

Well, there it is. The beginning of a new journey. This time I’m inviting God along.
Today, I’m going grocery shopping.  I’m also going to work on establishing my guidelines & my plan of attack.  All of which I’ll share on here once I get it figured out.
My first mini-goal is to lose 6 [...]

consistency!

Posted by: londonjulz In: General| Goals| Life

I’m going to try to be a more consistent blogger.  This really does help to have a place to get all of my brain out.
I’m also going to try to be more consistent with journaling my food intake. So far I’ve just been guessing about how many points I’m going through in a day - [...]
