I can’t do it.  It’s too hard and I feel like I am going backward.  Time for another change.

My Goal here.

• Lose 50 lbs.
• Get fit.
• Adopt vegan lifestyle.

The Problem

• Making the time to eat right and exercise is challenging with 2 jobs and a wonderful yet caveman-ish husband.
• It is much easier for me to manage simple and healthy meals which include turkey and eggs.  I did it for 25 years.  It’s my comfort zone.

The Solution

• Take care of me first, then focus on the animals and ethics.
• Lose weight how I know I can, get healthy, rediscover those old good habits.
• Once I’m in a groove of good food choices and and regular exercise, start the conversion to veganism.

What’s Next?

• One nutritional cleansing per month.  I prefer the 9 day Isagenix .

I have made some baby steps in the form of looser pants, eliminating snacks, and giving my family the tools to take some responsibility for themselves so that I can take some time for me.  So although I have not lost as much weight as I would have liked since August, I have made good healthy changes.  My spirit and disposition in life in general have changed immensely.

Mood, spirit, positivity, negativity, confidence, health, and happiness are connected.  I assumed that when I lost some weight it would open the door to the positive, the spirit, and confidence, but it looks like the spirit and positive needed to emerge first!
