As I sit in my bed with my thinking cap on I feel as though I want to share with you about my healthy living struggles. I have a large family on both my mother and father's side. We absolutely LOVE food, all forms and we do NOT discriminate. As I become older I KNOW that some of the foods are NO good for me and causes me a large amount of discomfort towards the end of the day. I started to realize this but I did not have the will power to pull myself away from these foods.
There were years that I started to exercises and to cut back on particular foods. My husband and I are NOT big pork or beef eaters. There was a long period that we only ate chicken and fish baked and small portions of it. Of course there has been periods when we started eating junk again. Last February (2011) I decided that I have had enough of the weight struggles and I chose to seek a more healthy life. I started taking part in ZUMBA...OMG how excited has that journey been, very. I have met many awesome ladies that have also been cured of physical struggles because they have choosen to be active. While participating in ZUMBA I saw that I was loosing weight, however I listened to stories of other ladies that sparked awareness. I became aware that if I were eating healthy and doing ZUMBA I could actually transform my body into some nice eye candy.
By July 2011..I was on weight watchers for about three months, until the sale subscription expired. I started thinking to myself..there has to be a better way to get this weight off without paying to log in the foods that I eat. So, I did not stick with weight watchers but I stuck with ZUMBA. Then some friends(The Wimbush Family) were discussing Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead on Facebook so of course I googled it and found the movie. "Life Changing"..OMG!!! I knew from that moment that I needed to become healthy and stay that way before I am forced with medications or something. We have relocated to Texas and healthy living has been our way to go...We've incorporate Raw foods and I am getting my juice on as you know from earlier posts. I am going to close this post out with an old picture of my body when I knew that it was time to "Make a Change"..

After seeing myself like this I began to put myself through mortal combat. I will not stop until I have accomplished my goal wright and until I can get others on board with changing their lifestyles as well. Just call me DEDICATED!!
