This is the Blog Tour which was started by Sam at Believe In Yourself. Read the blog and follow the link at the bottom to the next blog...and the next and next.
1. Post a before picture. (see below)
2. Post your most current after picture.(see below)
3. State the amount of weight you’ve lost. 60 pounds
4. If you are on a specific eating/exercise plan, what is it? I eat smaller portions, a lot less packaged foods, eat a lot more fruits and veggies, drink lots of water, and exercise almost every day.
5. What is your favorite healthy snack? (share a pic if you have one) Fruit... I really love having a nice fruit salad (a bunch of fruits cut up together).
6. What is the biggest life lesson you’ve learned on your journey? That I can do this and I shouldn't compare myself to others. I will lose at my own pace and that is good enough.
7. What is the biggest strength you’ve discovered about yourself? I have a strong determination to get this goal accomplished once and for all. I have a one track mind. I'm surprised how much stronger I have become and how much endurance I have gained.
8. What has been your toughest struggle? Dealing with the Fructose Malabsorption and the dietary changes associated with that.
9. Who has been your biggest supporter and why? My husband. He is the one who is here for me every day. Saying encouraging things to me along the way. He is very supportive when I need to go to the gym or run yet again.
10. When you get to goal, what will you do next? Focus on maintaining my weight and enjoy a variety of workouts. Try to inspire others to do the same.
11. What do you wish someone had told you when you first began? That everyone has excuses for why they can't do something. But that's just another reason why not to try. Make room for workouts in your day no matter when you have to do it. Make yourself a priority. You deserve to be the focus for once and can make this change.
12. Share any other words of wisdom you want to share. It's amazing the things that I hear people say to me when they are talking about their own weight loss progress. Usually it's a list of excuses about why they can't lose weight or why they haven't had success. I say, get rid of the excuses. Start thinking of reasons why you can make this happen in your life. Start by listing things that you want to accomplish along the way. Little things that will make life easier. (Like not needing the extra seat in a plane. Or not feeling like you are suffocating if you lay on your back.) If you keep your "whys" in mind, it will make your focus seem easier to keep at the forefront of your mind.
