Up's & Down's

Sorry for only updating now but this week has been crazy! I woke up Tuesday morning feeling great & happy so far with the progress to the 'New Me' we had a house full of kids with great treats all over the place temptation was high but as the good girl I went for the fruit :-) whhhoo whhhooo day 2 was great & I thought the next day would be even better!!!!!

Wednesday morning, My eyes are swollen my body hurts & I it feels like a truck hit me I have a temperature of 38.4 & am very very cold - All I want is comfort food. I decided to weigh myself feeling positive about the results. As I stepped on the scale my worst nightmares where confirmed in under 2 days I picked up 2kg :-( what happened??? I sat down feeling emotional crying & trying to accept the facts. I text my mom & best friend, both of them came up with the same answer WATER RETENTION it was an answer I was more than happy to accept!

I looked back at the past 2 months & everything that has changed in my life from eating to new medication to just my state of mind & started doing some research on water retention, the pages were ongoing & I found out that you can store up t0 10lbs (pounds) of water in your body. That was it the answer to everything. In under 2 months I had picked up 7kg & in under 2 days 2kg :-( I stopped all the tablets I was taking (calcium / multivitamin / Pro biotic / Alli) for 2 days now & I weighed myself this morning weighing 85kg, 3kg down from yesterday :-) I see the light now & I feel hopeful once again to loose these extra pounds.

  1. Hey my cuz

    I am so so proud of you for doing this. Its so tough now and all you wanna do is give up, but keep your end goal in mind and think about all the awesome shopping you can do and all the cute outfits you can buy if you weigh just a little less. Well thats my motivation anyway :)

    I love you and am thinking of you on this journey! Praying for you my little cuz.

    MWAH!
    God bless :)
    Love Tam
