Today i want to share a picture!

It is obviously hard for me to do this, very personal photo for me but helps me stay motivated and I see the slight progress i am making. If my BFF Erica @ LoyalRUN ( go <--- to read and see her photo she shared) can share her photos I think i can :) 

When i started this new journey. I was at 220lbs. My heaviest was 225-228lbs well over a year ago. over the summer i got down to 210 and then by November i was back up! :( 

Today I am 203lbs Excited to Keep it going DOWN AND DOWN AND DOWN.

so here is the PICTURE...... 

Can ya see the difference, BOY I SURE HOPE so or posting this was a MISTAKE! I see a difference. 

This is hard! I am addicted to FOOD. I love my junk food, my dt pop, and my CARBS!

But to live longer and to feel better I need to change my lifestyle and get this excess weight off me!Yes i still have my cheat day or meal where i don't count calories and enjoy a meal. I am still fairly conscious of what i am putting into my body but they keep me sane. 

I posted this on IG!

I cut caffeine outta my daily diet 15 days ago, WAHOOO! 

i went a whole week with nothing but water. the first 3 days of cutting cold turkey SUCKED!

So after that I was obviously tired of water. I drank a dt orange, no caffeine but still had the aspartame which i know isn't good for us. So i try not to drink a lot of that. I tend to drink 2-3 bottles of water if i want a something that's non-caffeine.  I found Diet Rite cherry cola, 0 calories, 0 sodium, 0 caffeine, and ingredients don't say aspartame. So i treat myself with that also! I am sure there something in there thats bad, but HECK what in the world is good for us anymore? Anything GOOD for us is either NASTY or too damn expensive. I guess If i die i will die happy. ;) 

Well that is all for today We CAN Wednesday LINK UP!

I hope to see more of you join! :)
