Its hot here in Charlotte, I mean HOT! But I have managed to jog 1.5 or 2 miles every day. How does one jog with an heat index of almost 100? I do it at sun down, yep its still hot, but its not blistering and I enjoy my runs.
I love the way my legs are forming. I get a kick out watching the fat melt away. I am loving how my body is toning up and I lost more weight. Yes, I am at 200...been here for awhile but I am okay...because I am losing inches instead of the pounds and its is nice to see clothes hang propery on me! I also am doing 100 situps in the morning and eating healthier.
Ron is gone, so you can say I lost another 190 lbs of dead weight. He was causing more drama in my life. With school, a full time job, real estate investments to manage and trying to live a peaceful life...his personal crisis and unnecessary drama was adding to my stress. I moved here to have a stress free life. A simple life free of chaos and drama....however, I realized that I have a codependent nature, yes, folks I am an enabler. Therefore, folks who need to be help in their lives gravitate towards me. I am learning to let go and let others deal with their own problems. Life is too short and people have got to own up to their own sh*t. I can't help or save them, they have to do the work necessary to save themselves.
I used to cook for Ron, stuff that he liked and wanted to eat. I love to cook, but I was not cooking healthy meals for me. It was heavy West Indian foods 3 to 4 times a week. Now that I am just dating, I am back to cooking healthy meals for me and when I dine out. I eat salads or just a small appetizer. Its amazing how being an enabler can sabotage the work and effort you have put into yourself. Well, let this be the last time his name is said out loud. While we are still friends, I am doing what I do best....I am loving me and taking the time out to take care of me. Every jog is a victory towards getting back to the healthy and wonderful me!
Next goal....The bathing suit photo!
