You Can’t Enjoy Your Life And Be Thin
Remember Beth who we saw yesterday with her amazing body transformation and over 2 stone loss.
We were chatting this morning about her weight loss journey and how she felt before joining my plans.
This sentence said it all:
" I used to think you couldn't have a life and be thin!
I Always suffered with my weight up one year down the next, was 9st 4 in 2012 when I got married and that was a result of herbal life milkshakes and a lot n lot of running.
I was on average running 3 sometimes 4 days a week a minimum of 3 miles, did a few 10ks and 2 half marathons. Then I injured my calf and kinda lost the running bug.
Slowly over the years the weight crept on and I didn't realise how much to be honest I was just
"enjoying life "
I knew I had gained weight but figured this is me and this is how I'm meant to be. I was also of the opinion that life was to short to be miserable and dieting so continued to eat and drink whatever I wanted when ever I wanted.
It was only when I saw those photos from my friends wedding in June of 2016 that I realised how big I'd got!
So that was it. I decided a diet was called for, cut everything out and started running again! This only lasted about 4 weeks before once again calf popped and I had to hobble home, so that was it had no idea what to do other than cut out everything and diet. Lost a few pounds I think but was refusing to weigh because I was scared of what the scales would say.
Plus I was annoyed that my 40th birthday was only 6 months away and we had a group holiday to Ibiza coming up in the September that I had to do something I didn't want to be fat at forty.
Then I saw Tara's detox programme and thought it was worth a try, be a nice kick start to something.
After an 8lb loss on detox week I could not believe it and thought in a for a penny try 21 day and that was it. I was hooked.
I feel fitter than ever, more energy and have totally changed my body shape. I weigh slightly more now than I did get to on my 40th but my stats are the same if not smaller in parts. However I'm not really focusing on weight as I feel it in my clothes. I really just want to lose the excess wobble, which I can see going.
My husband comments on how my body shape has changed, and even when I've weighed this amount before it's been shapeless ( if that's the right way to describe it ) I've got a more defined woman's shape - a narrower waist etc.
I love the fact that now I don't even think twice about food and even treats, yes I do indulge and some weeks more than others but I now know how to rein it in.
It is a lifestyle, I'm not on a diet I'm looking after myself.
In fact quantity wise I'm eating more food than I used to, my working day used to be picking whatever and when ever, sometimes nothing all day an then petrol station sandwiches on the way home as I was starved then Followed by a meal. Plus we had go into a habit of drinking at home about 5 nights a week, now it's the odd day here n there, and it's not such a big deal anymore. Which is also why I think I have more energy in the day.
Plus I totally love the little community we have in the group, I find even if all I do is post some pics I've been accountable for my self. Sharing of recipes and pics inspires us all I think to explore other meals and ideas - I love it "
Beth use to think that she wasn't enjoying herself fully in a restaurant unless she was eating
Deep Fried Brie to start
Lasagne, chips & Garlic bread
PLUS
Dessert & Drinks
She thought she was living life to the full, but all she really felt was full, bloated and sluggish....until now.

Yes - there's pizza there. This is real life
