I took a year off from blogging. Why? I had to figure a few things out. I had been kind of changing my food and kind of exercising and then slipping back and gaining it back. Hence why the blog would be active and then not. I joined a gym finally in March of 2012 but instructors left and I slipped again. I kept the weight off mind you, went from a 26/28 to a size 20 and then stayed there for six months. Then my friend told me to try a new gym with her. I joined in March of 2013, switched my food completely and have gone from a size 20 to a size 14. The goal size in mind next is a size 10, and then go for a lower size again. This gym is amazing and it makes me not want to slip on my food ever again.
It is not about gluten free, it is about NO processed food at ALL. I do not care what excuse you throw at me, soy is bad, very bad and any processed food needs to be completely eliminated from your diet. You can tell me that your husband likes this and that, and I will simply state, he does not need it. You are the mom, you control the food that is purchased, put your foot down. Do my children eat processed food. Yes, they eat frozen pizzas and are allowed pasta once a week. Do I eat it, no. Will I offer recipes that I use here? Yes. Paleo is the way to go folks. Stick with it and have some sort of workout routine and I can promise you that you will see results quickly as well. I can state it all works without a doubt. Going from a 26/28 to a size 14 with some hiccups was not and is not easy.
I will not apologize for getting upset and frustrated over the last year and a half, but I will state it is part of the learning process. However, listening to Dr’s state that the weight will return because “I” will falter, is really ticking me off. I would use more colorful language, but I think you get the general idea. How dare they assume I will fail and need surgery. I was overweight for over 20 years, and I am not going to need surgery unless I get the extra skin removed. So, deal with that Dr’s that love to give medication instead of telling patients to eat clean, and give you the wrong ideas on how to eat.
So, posts to come over the weekend and a picture below and a promise that I am here for anyone that wants to be motivated the correct way. I will not belittle or demean you in any way. I have been there and am still there. I will simply show you what works for me, and how I did it and am doing it without diet pills, surgery or starving myself.
