How time flies when you're having fun

I told myself I was going to take ONE day off, a cheat day...a day to eat what I wanted and get the cravings out of my system.

That was 3 months and 15 pounds ago.

One day turned into a week, and then the week into a month, and there was vacation, and birthday celebrations, and holidays and getting to know new people over dinner. Next thing I know, I'm only 10 weeks away from being in my best friends wedding wearing a dress that is currently too small for me.
THIS DOWNWARD SPIRAL HAS GOT TO STOP
I have to do whats best for me
Being good to myself is not just about how I treat myself or let others treat me, it's also about what I put in my body.

Sure I want to look great in that little blue dress, but more importantly, I want to feel great, and not in need of a nap on her big day just because my body is bogged down with crap it's trying to process.

I'm going to set a small but achievable goal: 10 pounds this month
It may not sound like much, but it's a start.

For now I'll have to say goodbye to my Rockstar energy drinks, McDonalds, and chilli cheese fries. I may see you again some day, but I will be a different person at that time, and will not fall for your good looks and evil ways again. I will share you at a smaller portion, and will you come in 2nd to a better, healthier option.

Well my fellow reader I am off to mend my friendship with walks, water, and 24hr fitness. I have a feeling there will be some not so easy days..

I will no longer look at myself as my worst enemy...today I begin to be my best cheerleader..

SALUD, amor, y familia!
