Okay so here goes nothing…not only will this blog be my
beauty blog but I’ve decided it’s going to be my weight loss blog as well! It’s
time I took control of my life and did something. I’m tired of being unhappy
with myself, depressed and a hermit who hides in her home because she’s uncomfortable
being out (lame I know). Now don’t get me wrong I’m not gi-normous (as I like
to say) but I need to lose about 50lbs.
I previously lost over 60lbs two years ago while living with
my parents after a crappy divorce. Some of the weight loss was due to the
stress and emotional roller coaster I was on from the divorce but I also
decided to see a weight loss MD and get put on prescription diet pills. Boy oh
boy when I first went on those pills I dropped it like it’s hot!! I was on a
very strict, very healthy, very expensive diet! I was living with my parents so
I really didn’t have anything to pay for so I was able to afford all those
things. That’s not so much the case now.
I now own my own
home, which I worked VERY hard to get, so my money isn’t so readily available!
I’ve got a mortgage, electric, water and other bills to pay for by myself which
can really limit what I can and cannot buy. So I’m putting myself not only on a
weight loss plan (I’m currently figuring it out!) but also a budget, with the
help of my dear sweet boyfriend of course so I can afford the healthier foods!
So I will now be blogging, at least I hope to keep this up,
about my journey, my ups and downs and possibly recipes and words of
encouragement for anyone else out there that might need it. I will also post
beauty related stuff on here too so don’t freak out if you see a healthy food
recipe then a video on hair products!! J
That’s just how I roll!
Any kind of support or words of encouragement would be
greatly appreciated! If you’re currently trying to lose weight then let’s encourage
each other!
I have four ways you can communicate with me: 1. Is on here
of course; 2. My Facebook Fanpage: Ohh For the Love of Makeup (if you subscribe
to my youtube videos you will find the link) 3. My email: candyland1081@gmail.com
and 4. Twitter (which I’ve just started
getting back into!) @candyland1081.
I’m crossing my fingers that I can accomplish my goal and
stop being a hermit!
YOU CAN HAVE RESULTS OR EXCUSES…NOT BOTH
Hey girl that's great that you have taken your life into your own hands! I am on a weightloss journey too! I started last month and have lost 10 pounds. I still would like to lose 40 pounds but slowly but surely I will get there! Something that has really helped me is pinning workout tips, videos, healthy meals and snacks on pinterest!!
