Well, I've already lost six pounds and I'm at the beginning of week 2 (phase 1). It feels so good!
The only problem is ... I want all the 60 pounds gone NOW!! But that can't happen, right? (To tell you the truth, I often catch a glimpse of myself in the mirror, hoping they will have magically disappeared, but nope! They're still there.
)
I've noticed that when I'm 216 pounds or more, I start having problems with my sleep. Even turning in bed seems such a difficult task. I have to use support to rise from bed and I get up feeling tired and sore. It's a feeling that sucks. It makes me feel so much older than 42. But losing even a few pounds improves that and I already sleep so much better. That's wonderful.
And talking of age, I often see women having a hard time accepting the fact that they become older. Well, I usually nod my head in agreement with their comments, but secretly I tell myself that I don't care because having been overweight since I was a child, I feel that I've always been old. So, what's the big deal?
Actually, I'm planning to become YOUNGER now. Actually, I'm planning to transform myself so that I will feel young now, at my 42 (or maybe 43... it seems it's gonna take a while.) yeap! This is my turn to be young! (You can see it in these "goal" pictures here. These women and men haven't just tossed away huge amounts of body fat, they have also gotten rid of many years from their age. They look so much younger!(and prettier and happier)
Cheers to all those who have succeeded and have become an inspiration to the rest of us!
