Kathy,

All I can say is that it is VERY hard!
I talk to myself all day long saying..... "You can do it." "Did you get up and do your workout for nothing this morning?" "If you eat that Ilesha you won't loose any weight." "This time I will see a difference."
I am not going to lie, I struggle allot!!! I get hungry and really tired.
This lady that teaches me water aerobics, once said (and I think you have too Cathy), "we can do it for just ONE more minute right??? We can do ANYTHING for one minute". That really hit me hard with life! I can do ANYTHING for ONE day! and I say that day to day!
Satin is the one that wants you to think you don't have control over your body. You do!!! Why don't you drink alcohol? Be cause you can control it! Cathy, I also tell my young women (OK,beg them) to have self control. "I tell them YOU CAN DO ANYTHING you want!!!" If you want to get up and work out.. you can, if you want to say no to a friend who is telling you to do something bad... you can.
I PROMISE, there are no excuses for not doing what YOU want to do. Just have faith in yourself. Don't let Satin win. Let him know who is in charge of YOU!
Because I have more faith in you Cathy then you know. You have a strong testimony, pray for help. I do when I go to bed, I say thanks for helping me be strong today, PLEASE help me get through tomorrow.
I am not always strong, but I am doing better then I EVER had in my life! So thanks to both of you! (I am NOT where I want to be, and I am so discouraged, but I will give it to April 2nd, because that is what I promised myself!
Good Luck! I hope that made sense.

Love, Ilesha

Kathy

You CAN do it!! I know it can be rough. I understand. It is soooooo hard!!! First things first.

Where are you around 3PM every day? When you get hungry? What are doing? Are you at work or home? WHY do you have access to bad foods at that time? Seriously, answer these questions... let me know! We can work on this together.

What days do you teach classes? On the other days, what time do you work out? What is your schedule?

What kinds of food do you have in your house that you are over eating with? What are your 3 FAVORITE healthy snacks?

Try this.... Make sure to have PLENTY of your 3 favorite snacks with you at all times. I have a HUGE purse. If you look inside it at any time, you will find a granola bar (100 calories), an apple (100 calories) an orange (130 calories) and a snack baggies with 100 calories portioned sweet snack.... chocolate or jelly beans. That way, No matter where I am if I am hit with a craving I can eat any or all of my snack items and know that I can still stay on track. Try it. It works.

I also love hard boiled eggs, I keep a dozen at all times in my fridge, and string cheese. My family loves these snacks also. I really try to keep absolutely NO junk food in my house. I do have a few items (chocolate covered fruit pieces, jelly belly's) that I ration out to myself. Do you set yourself up for failure. Try to eliminate the junk food in your home.

K- so I am not preaching, just telling you what works for me.

Maybe Ilesha should call you each moring to go work out with her!! Ilesha? What do you have to say to Kathy? Kathy, what has been working for you? Tell me!

So frustrated!!!!

Ilesha and Jen. I am sucking at this whole thing. I have fallen back into old habits! Drinking pop and eating more calories than I should so, my exercising all goes toward my maintenance. So, I ask myself what do I do now? Do I except my body the way it is and stop feeling so guilty for failing? I start off every morning thinking that today is going to be a good day. I eat fantastic and then mid day hits and I blow it. Then I feel like quitting. I can even hear Jen in my mind saying "start right then", and "forget about the past". Can you really make yourself change when you have NO willpower? I need to make serious lifestyle changes to get to the weight I would like to. (Permanent ones)
I can see many things that get in my way...One of them being ....I am not sure I believe in myself???? Can I really do this when there is this part of me that struggles to make those simple changes and maybe I don't believe I can. I know what to eat, I know what exercises I need to do. Why is this so hard? Ilesha just whips this out like it's no problem. Why can't I win this battle for good? What is my problem!!!!

So Ilesha the answer to your question is simple. I am doing better until 3-4pm and then I blow it. Why write honest points down when you get anywhere from 20-60 points. I am without a doubt in last place. I think I am holding on by a thread. I feel guilty and know I have pictures with my friends that WILL put them on facebook and I will hate them all. It just discourages me......WHAT is wrong with me????

OK I am done venting...thoughts please. Ilesha what is your secret? ME!!!

Really??????/

Where is everyone?
Am I doing this alone?
Cathy I thought you were going to be better? Where are YOU????

-Ilesha

Jen

OK... Just so I am clear??/ What is posting? Saying you went over and not telling us what you ate? do you still get 10 points? Jen you gave yourself 70 points, but...... I didn't see what you ate, so shouldn't it be 60? If you decide to write just how bad you did, THEN you can have those 10 points. Otherwise it would just be too easy to go over my points and say... I went over.! IDK what do you think?
