Is it true?
Ashley:
You know I have always wondered what my weight loss would be at the end. Can she really tell you in 2 months what it will be? she said because at 8 months you are 2/3 the total weight loss expected? that is really cool!
You are doing great! I believe you can do it! We are here to support you!
It is not easy but 10 lbs a month is not too bad. It would mean really cracking down on your exercise. I would up my days of aerobics first. I would not like to go back to liquid diet. That is tough. I have to remind myself to eat sometimes and I have myself on almost a stricter schedule. I try to eat at certain times every day. That way I get all the calories I need in. My dietician said to be at around 1000 - 1500 calories a day and aim for that. She said not to starve your body but to just eat better. Now that my body works with me I find myself craving those healthy foods.
I will be honest with you. I am done with people telling me how much I should lose. I am happy with were I am now and so much healthier. If I stayed here I would be happy. I didn't do this to be some skinny minnie. I did this to be healthier for my husband and children. I watched my father go down the tubes because of his weight. It is a scary thing! Every other diet I have been on in the past was directed by someone telling me how much to lose in a certain amount of time and they all failed. Now I tell myself that I know I can ride the bike longer or beat my son in a jumprope compitition. These little energetic goals help me stay focused on whats really important. Being healthy! My Dr. said that your body stops when you are done and then it is up to me to maintain that. I am happy with that! I now have my own personal goals and know that I don't get my reward if it doesn't happen. I know this is a horrible way to look at it but I am just being honest.
keep in touch and let me know how you are doing!
