I got called the S word at the department store yesterday. SKINNY! Wow- thats a word I am still getting used to- though I prefer strong. The picture on the left was taken a year ago on a hike with my brother that I could barely finish. I was weighing about 170 pounds and I was hurting everywhere- physically, mentally and emotionally. I didnt have the energy to keep up with my little boy. In February of this year, I ordered JJs book on Amazon in yet another desperate attempt to lose weight. (I had already spent ridiculous amounts of money on weight loss shakes, crazy diet pills, even hypnosis CDs but none of them worked- or produced lasting results). I did my first full cleanse in February, and have since done 6-7 full cleanses. Between my cleanses, I focus on clean eating, smoothies and a high-protein diet like JJ outlines in the book. I started incorporating exercise (weight lifting) back in June, after I made my clean eating habitual. (Dont try to take on too much at once!!) This morning, I weighed in at 129.8!! I was looking over my doctors charts this morning, and I havent weighed this since middle school! With patience, resiliency and determination, Ive met and exceeded every goal Ive set for myself! Just remember - you arent a failure if you slip up or end the cleanse early or have a cheat meal. You dont fail unless you give up entirely. So KEEP GOING NO MATTER WHAT!
