My New Quest!!

Hello Ladies!!

I just thought would share with you all my newest quest. What is it? Weight loss. Yep. Weight loss! This is a big deal for me because commitment is something I have never been good at. But I am starting to see that when a person wans something bad enough, they go for it! So here I am!!

So I started at the end of Feb and I can honestly say that I have successfully managed to lose 11 pounds! Now, the reason I decided to include this in my blog is because I know losing weight is NOT easy!! Yet there are so many of us beautiful women who desire to do so! Day in and day out we read, hear and see secrets and miracle potions promising weight loss. So many pills, plans and celebrities telling us this and that! We dont know what to do!! Then there are the expensive meal plans and equipment. But what do those of us do that dont want to do all that? What do those of us do that cant afford all that? What about motivation? Where do we turn to get strength when we need it? These were some of the quetions I had. And until I just buckled down and decided to do this, I was just wishing and making statements without actually doing anything. Well, if yall have read any of my previous entries you know how I am about going after what I want and this is no different. Nothing really worth having comes easy so we have to do what we have to do!

With that being said, I am and will be posting all the help I can give on this weight loss thing. I will share all the tidbits I learn along the way so that we all can be the women we want to be!
So before I say goodbye for now I would like to share the things that have helped me lose so far.

1. Exercising at least 3 times a week. (walking fast, running or a mixture of both)
2. Eating a lot of fiber!!
3. Eating under 1500 calories a day
4. Taking "Be Hot". This is a supplement from GNC. It makes you burn more calories before and after you exercise!!! It really works!!!!!!!

These are some powerful tips yall! Yall just dont know whast they have done for me!!
Accomplishing this has also helped me to realize my pwer on other things I want in my life. Its amazing how accomplishing small goals can make you feel like you can do anything!

So ladies, I have 36 more pounds to go! I can do this and so can you ladies if it is your desire!

Love yall!!
