Real Chats & Menu

Good Morning Dancing 4 Cheeseburger Friends, 

It's so weird, even though i'm eating very clean and healthy it feels like i'm NOT;  ever since the RAW CLEANSE. I think i'll cut my carb (i've highlighted when I think I too many carbs) intake down a little more and up my protein and vegetables. Maybe if I cut out the Popcorn for a week and see if that makes any difference? (Gosh but I love my popcorn) We'll see. 

My Menu this past week:

Sunday:
B: Banana & Matcha Drink
S: Popcorn (Boom Chicka Pop) 
L: Chick pea and Spinach with Toss Salad and Gerkins

Let's real chat for a minute:

So my original goal was March 5th (50lbs) it had recently changed to 60lbs by November 1st. (which I don't think is reasonable anymore as these last 20lbs are much harder to lose than the first 30lbs!)  I'm going to change the end date one more time: I think it should be January 7th! (My Birthday!) It will be a nice present to myself. That gives me just over 17 weeks to lose 22lbs. I feel a more reasonable and acceptable Goal! It would work out to be: 1.3lbs a week! Still a very difficult goal, but a reachable one! (this date will still be 2 months before my original goal + 10 more lbs!) 

Thanks for Reading & Continuing with me on this crazy Journey to Health!

RAW CLEANSE final chapter

D4C, 

The RAW CLEANSE. Oh RAW CLEANSE. (I love & hate you) So I've lost a total of -5lbs on the RAW CLEANSE. IT was very very difficult. (you crave warm food & caffeine) The break down, was -3lbs in the first three days, and -2lbs in the last three days. (I feel like your body, can adjust and then the weight loss slow's down) 

*If your going to do it! Keep your Caffeine intake - or just cut it down*

I have to confess I did cheat once and had a caffeinated drink! (my headache was so bad, I say blurry spots) But, I completed the task 6 days raw! 

Still working on this list! If you've forgotten what my Incentives are here they are: I can't believe there is this many crossed off! 

 Incentive List: 
5lbs: New Sneakers (Mine are from 2008 - that should tell you how much exercise I was doing)
10lbs: Fun Work out top
15lbs:  LuLu Lemon Pants
20lbs: Hair done, somewhere expensive (Color and everything - maybe bowtique? I'll take suggestions) 
25lbs: New Shoes
30lbs: SunDress
35lbs: All new Bras/Underwear
40lbs: Tattoo (January) 
45lbs: Bathing Suits
50lbs: Trip to Mexico

55lbs: New Wardrobe

60lbs: Ring

The biggest change other than my energy level, has been my face and my skin!  I feel like I have cheek bones and features again! The first picture is me yesterday! The second picture is from Before the Health Journey, 3 weeks, 5 weeks and 8 weeks. 

Back to my regular weigh in's after this week, with pictures! See you soon.

RAW CLEANSE last days

D4C,

Good Morning, Day 6 of the Raw Cleanse, It's going really well.  I really want something cooked! I can't believe some people do this as a lifestyle. (honestly, its so difficult) I had to eat caffeine today. My headache yesterday, was insane. (if your going to do it, i'd advise that you keep or just cut back your caffeine intake) 

I can't wait I start back at teaching dance on Tuesday! I'm really going to try and kick their butts in the warm up and strength portions of the class! Look out Ladies, I'm ready to go!

RAW CLEANSE DAY 3

D4C,

The raw cleanse is going so well! Candace is s great support! We both had major headaches on day one (Caffeine Withdrawl) Day two seemed as though my  mind was hyper focused on things! (which was really really weird) And today, Day three; seems "normal".  I'm feeling so wonderful today, like I could take on the world haha. I don't think though, I could work out yet. (still a little light headed) I can't wait to step on the scale for weigh in Wednesday tomorrow and share with you! 

These are the three pictures of the Leopard Dress: (the last one is today)
