Well, here I am again. I have gained and lost and gained and gained and gained. So, three weeks ago I started the Military Diet with my daughter that has three days of hard core dieting with four days a bit more relaxed and of course exercise encouraged!
The good news is as of today I am more than 15 pounds down. This has taken real effort. I went to the doctor, found out I was extremely anemic and with the weight gain I was finding it hard to get through the day let alone move. I am happy to say that I am feeling better and I am moving again and the weight is slowly dropping. I am trying to look at the "diet" as a life style and exercise as the key to happiness. This is not a punishment but a way to live life differently.
I think it would be fun to live in a body that didn't gain weight so easily. I know it is evolution and genetics and the pure enjoyment of food that has gotten me here, but it is a struggle that is difficult to keep moving with. I am encouraged by others though who cheer me on no matter what and who help make this journey worth it!
