Results!

So what's it been like 2 months?!?! yikes!! I am a real blog-slacker. Honestly the thing is I don't like writing unless I have something good to say or a point I want to make, but that's not really the point is it? Well It is what it is I guess, I write when I feel like it. 
 So even though I haven't written doesn't mean I am not focused on my weight loss goals. I am actually more focused than ever since I took a job as a camp counselor. The job actually has a requirement written into the contract that I need to wear a bathing suit when the kids have swim time. If those words "required to wear a bathing suit" don't kick you into high gear I don't know what will. So I resorted to the 17 day diet which is really just a scripted out plan that eliminates carbs almost completely and then integrates them slowly in four cycles of 17 days. Of course this is also in addition to exercise. I like this diet because it gives you a plan to start over after you've been eating like food is being discontinued. Obviously the best way to lose weight is to change your lifestyle completely but sometimes you really need to see results as quickly as possible in order to keep going and this gives me that satisfaction. It also doesn't hurt that the summer clothes that were tight on me last year are now loose on me. I truly feel the key to keep going is not only feeling better but seeing the results, whether it's on the scale or in your clothes. Seeing results in weight loss is exactly like getting good grades, If you do the work and study (as I have learned) you will get A's...If you follow a healthy diet and exercise, you will lose the weight. I am looking forward to fitting into even more jeans that I have been saving just knowing I will once again fit into them. I am hoping this time next year this isn't even an issue and I am wearing all of those jeans I have been saving. Hopefully this action packed summer will kickstart me into gear...

Food for Thought

First of all I want to give a thank you to my oldest friend Mallory and her Mom Jacquie for the shout out on their blogs, these are two very beautiful and inspirational women, I am so happy to have known them so long...


Now a little food for thought
I found this photo on facebook and I'm sure it's on many other sites with many various opinions. Some people think it's hating on each other by saying one is hotter than the other. While alot of people think It's meant to give a self esteem boost to women who aren't rail thin. I can definitely see sides of both but I can also say this doesn't make me feel either way. I hate when people are like "When will being heavier be in style again?" I don't feel Thin or Heavy should matter, it should be healthy, comfortable, and personable that matters. For once I'd just like to be seen as a person, not a body. While that isn't easy trying to be an actress and producer type people don't think you can even be on T.V. if you aren't a sample size just once it would be nice to hear "I love your voice, and personality" not "I really like your look...but" lucky for me I am only trying to do stage work :)  So for now I will continue working towards a healthier me not just a more acceptable me...
