Day 20

Heavy work out day!

I really gave it all that I had and did the stairs 5 times.  Wow.  Don’t feel like eating that junk on a day like that.  I will rest a while and go into a new challenge.

I really am grateful for so many things.  But I do stumble and have to pick my self up.  It can be frustrating and very discouraging for me at times when I slip.  But I know the power of health and mental healing.  I also know the power of the written results from my medical tests.  I have surely come a long way!

Day 19

Great day of working out and getting myself together!

I’m focusing on the good and not lingering on the bad. I always feel so much better doing the right thing and especially eating clean. I focused more on smoothies and enjoying my fruits.

I jumped on doing my food plan before I had a change of mental strength.

It is so much easier with my plan in place!

Day  18

I did much better today although I have to be honest and say that I ate crackers with my salad. I feel okay physically, but the mental disappointment is really a drag. I can tell alot of things change when I disappoint myself, not to mention, disappointing others.

I have my final two days to work through and I’m determined to making the proper changes for myself. Maybe a small break after this 3rd detox is over would be good for me… but I will still stick to a vegan diet as I love beans.

I want to keep my commitments and do the right thing………..

Day  17

Want to go full force back on track!

My mind is wondering about so many things… Maybe because of the way I look, I have fooled myself into thinking that it is okay to eat poorly?! Is that the craziest thinking or what? Eating poorly makes me look poorly!

I have the weekend to go through and get my workouts on through that time as well. I just want to hide. Hide where though? I cannot hide from myself. I know better than this.

I also have been extremely busy with projects and just going through the motions of my life. It is hard though right now. Need to settle down and do the work for myself!

Day  16

Wow can you believe all the wonderful and great things I have done since beginning my detox?! I have worked out with a trainer that has brought me to the steps of life and endurance!

And then… guess what has happened? I have had a MELTDOWN… Don’t ask me why… or… PLEASE ask me why! I know that accountability is a must for me. I have tasted the forbidden fruit and could not stop myself. All the good things have gotten even better and yet I have subjected myself to this. I feel so low and ashamed. How could this happen when I am in such health and mental clarity? I submit to you ‘the devil made me do it”.

I was in a party atmosphere because of my youngest son’s graduation and boy did I look cute to myself… Fitting into clothes that I had not been seen since 2006!

I allowed the taste of cheese and tacos overcome me. I can not tell you how embarrassed I am to even write this out loud. I will only write this, and not read it. I feel so much like a failure, I can’t believe it.

Well of course as I go through this I am saying to myself, you can do it girl, just get right back on the saddle and ride out to continued good health.

Let’s see how the morning goes……………

Day  15

I cannot believe that I have gained 2 pounds!  I have been in a tailspin… Where did that come from?  I honestly feel like…  why be good?

These workouts are no joke and I have been giving it  all that I have!  Where did the weight come from?

I have lost so much weight already and I don’t want to spoil things for myself, but I feel discouraged…  What is going on?

Will talk to my trainer in depth………
