| One Month Difference |
Well, that's an embarrassing before picture, but...I'm human too. I like being lazy and binge watching Netflix. I LOVE FOOD. I don't always eat the best. I don't always want to workout. Life happens.
But then, my clothes started to get tight and my pants wouldn't go over my thighs. I had to buy new and bigger clothes last summer. I gained weight in places I've never gained before and I kind felt defeated. I quit posting as many outfit pictures, mainly because I couldn't wear much. I was kind of depressed about it, not only for me but for Jaime. I wanted to look my best for him and in my mind I let him down.
(He still told me he loved me and thought I was beautiful. He has love goggles on for me, thankfully.)
So finally, sometime in January, I had had enough. I contacted my good friend and personal trainer. I told her I needed help getting back on track. I was the heaviest I've ever weighed. I was tired of hating my body and I wanted the healthy Faith back. I just need someone to tell me what to eat, how much of it, and when. I only wanted to pay for her guidence, a gym membership, and healthy food. She made me a meal plan and a work out plan. I started February 1st!
After ONE month, I'm so happy with my decision. These inches fell off mainly because of what I decided to eat and not eat. Because I only worked out at least twice a week, maybe 3 times (weather permitting-so much snow!). I cheated more than I should have on the weekends. I made healthy dinners at night and stuck to my customized meal plan (breakfast, snack, lunch, and snack.)
Tomorrow, I start Month 2. I plan on sticking to my meal plan and just having one cheat meal a week. I plan on running more because I miss it and it always kept me slim. I plan on really going after my workouts so I see better results. I'm going to make a fun playlist to make me look forward to running.
If you're feeling like I was, take before pictures. Meal Prep on Sundays. Make little changes that will help motivate you to stick with it! Summer is coming and I desperately want to wear my old clothes.
Hold me accountable guys!
