I started on the fifteenth. I went out & bought fruit, vegetables, chicken & salmon & haven't touched (nor do I intend to touch), any junk food or sugary snacks. On the twentieth I will begin working out every day. It'll be a combination of kickboxing, hooping, yoga, & a LOT of walking, which will help me tone up & shed those extra pounds left over from Ivy. It'll be rough, but I'm determined to do whatever it takes to reach my full potential physically as well as mentally & emotionally, which is why I will also be meditating twice a day. I know I'll get discouraged, but the results in the end will be worth it & THAT will push me to accomplish my goals, which are;
- Tone up legs, butt, abs, arms, back & chest
- Lose 30 lbs by the end of August
- Build up some muscle in my arms, legs & abs
- Continue to eat only healthy foods (with one cheat day a month)
- Get at least eight hours of sleep a night
I'll still be working on getting my diploma, as well as learning to drive & looking for work, but I KNOW that I can accomplish anything I set out to do. There will always be somebody busier than me that still finds the time to exercise & eat right, so there are no excuses. I WILL lose weight, I WILL tone up, & I WILL strengthen my mental, emotional, & physical health this summer. I'm making these changes now so that Ivy doesn't have the same struggles with her weight & self confidence in the future as I do. I'm going to make myself proud, & I'm going to show Ivy what us Taylor girls are made of.
Wish me luck!
