IT's BEEN FOREVER!

Sep 01, 2009

WOW. I never get on here like I should.. 10 months out & I down 117 lbs !! I never thought I would even lose 100 lbs in my first year. Let me tell you I haven't been the 'best' girl either .. I am a HUGE sucker for lemonade & I reall need to stop drinking it. It's way too much sugar & not good for my teeth either... PROTEIN = NASTY ! .. I don't drink my protein , I can't find one drink / flavor that I like no matter what I do!!!! I need some serious help in that area- it all taste horrific & I just can't stand gagging when I sip on it b/c of flavor!

Anyways... the gym is another story... I joined the YMCA in January - went maybe 3x. I feel like I'm going into a night club rather than a gym ... I swear in this town it's just 'the cool' place to go .. you see everyone you know & they all look amazing. My insecurities are still eating me alive , though I get compliments & looks (good ones) on a daily basis - my sagging skin is killing my self esteem - which I know deep down working out will tighten some of it up... So I joined CURVES for Women (old lady central btw) ... I like it but no one my age goes & ........... see I'm just making excuses! 


I need some motivation badly - I need a friend in town that knows what I'm going thru - not someone that thinks they know... surrounded by those kind of people ...

Gotta run -
