Hello, I just wanted to let you know you have made a difference in my life with your detailed blog. I'm ashamed to admit I 've been feeling sorry for myself over 15 lousy lbs. I go up and down the scale, but over the last few months I have allowed this issue to cripple me. I lay around doing puzzles while my kids and dog beg me to be active with them. Drinking to much alcohol, eating too much rich food, feeling foggy and ill, not working out, sulking around the house, isolation, low self esteem- leads to more drinking and eating, thus continuing the cycle. My beautiful, vibrant six year old daughter asked my why I am always laying in bed all morning; she told me she was worried I was going to die. Today is my birthday and I'm trying to prepare myself mentally for a short term juice fast. Your blog details the breakdown of a negative cycle. I will be reading it during my difficult moments, thank you!
I juice fasted in January for only 4 days ending it with the cure zone liver cleanse. The positive energy I experienced was amazing. I was fitting into my new clothes, exercising with my family, felt a new degree of self-control and confidence. I was getting ready for a Caribbean cruise, but when the trip was over, I had gained the weight back. I realize now I can't try to change bad habits looking forward to a trip. It has to be about looking forward to living my life on my terms, under my control, by starting a positive cycle. Thanks for pointing out the element I have been neglecting! Each entry discussing how proud you felt of your accomplishments reminds me I need to stop dwelling on feelings of past failure and begin focusing in the present and bright future. Thank you again, you have so much to be proud of.
