I just can’t bring myself to believe how much food I
consume now. I am eating twice as much as I did before. I used to eat only what
I need to function, limit my carb intake, didn’t eat starchy carbs past my
lunch and sometimes avoided fruits because of the sugar. This pass few days, I
still can’t believe I walk right by the cardio machines and go to the gym to do
only weights.
Cardio and I were buddies (still love though). I use
to do cardio daily and never took days off even when I was sick, YEAH!!!! I don’t
think my mind was healthy. I was obsessed with getting as lean as possible.
My relationship with food was messed up and I
had no balance, none at all. Just because
you have a six pack, reach your ideal weight or look leaner than ever DOESN’T
mean you are healthy or happy for that matter. Soo sooo Proud of my progress, I
now have a balance.
I listen to my body and take my rest days. I eat to
fuel my body and still enjoy treats. (Gluten free Ice cream…hehehehhe). I do
the minimum amount of cardio I can and focus on lifting in the weight room. My
body is changing and I am seeing gains and feel more solid and strong each and every
day. I think back at all those bananas I didn’t eat because of the fructose and
low carb meals I gaggled down each night and hours spent on the tread mill and
elliptical, staring at the clock every time and sometime throwing a towel over
the time so I don’t have to be aware of how more minute of torture I had left.
I thank God I am no longer living like that way.
This is my life…and this is one thing am very good
at…dedicated to health and fitness…fitness has made me what I am today…stay
true to yourself and never let anyone dull your sparkle stay up stay blessed……
