I am writing this and realizing it has been over a month since I posted. I have to apologize up front for that. Sometimes we have to make priorities and when the bottom line is a blog post or exercise then I am going to choose exercise at this point. And that got me to thinking isn’t that what life’s choices boil down to. When I talk to people about losing weight, getting healthy and getting the results I have gotten and continue to get you can not imagine the excuses I hear.

“I am too busy”

“I don’t have the money”

“That sounds hard”

You name it I have heard it and I really have to check my heart and pray for forgiveness. I do not know about you but I get tired of the excuses and sometimes flat out lies. Tell me your scared, I can handle that we can work though that together. Tell me what is really going on and we will figure out a plan but telling me an excuse equates to telling me it isn’t important enough. Think about the implications of that. You are telling me out loud that you don’t feel your health and by extension the happiness of those around you is worth you making it a priority. 

Henry Ford is quoted as saying “Whether you think you can or whether you think you can’t, your right.” How true is this! Instead of giving excuses ask yourself what can I do to achieve this. How can we shift my priorities to get the result we are after? This can only be answered individually however we can work together and make a plan. Share with people and seek advice from those who have gone before you and already dealt with the same struggles and won. Surround yourself with winner in an attitude that your a winner.

What an emotional week! I have learned the secret to weight-loss and learned something about myself this week. First let me tell you I have been on this program for almost two weeks. After week one I was the ONLY one who hadn’t lost any weight. I exercised and made sure to get in 11,000-15,000 steps a day, I followed the plan to the letter never more the 1200 Calories and drank tons of water. I was feeling good and I had lost an inch around my waist but the scale didn’t move. I was stunned, what did I eat, when could I have worked out more. I didn’t understand. I was the only person out of the 50 of us that lost nothing. This was difficult but I had made a commitment to see this through for 90 days so by everything God instilled upon me I was going to keep going no matter what. Even if I got no results, at least then doctors would know there is something wrong with me. I sat down with my mother whom is also on this study (we are a team) and she shook her head. “We are eating the same meats and vegetable. I don’t understand.” Then the dawn started to break I was eating more cheese and dairy products than I used to and I had been showing sign of sensitivity to dairy. My brother is flat out allergic to it. We decided to eat exactly the same thing and cut out dairy. I also adjusted my calories to be able to drink the Xe which has ingredients known to boost metabolism and clean the body. Let me tell you the change was incredible the very next day I saw the scale move and continued to move. I don’t think all the troubles are over yet. But I have learned that I am capable of busting through all obstacles. God has gifted me this opportunity to claim the body I have never had and will see me through. And the absolute secret to meeting all your dreams even weight loss is commitment. I can honestly say if I had not committed to the full 90 day study I would have said never mind I am going to go have a pizza. Please get a plan ( I endorse Xocai’s and you will learn more about why later) and set a time. 90 days is great or maybe even 60 days would do, write down everything you put in my mouth (even if it has no calorie count) and commit to not cheating even a little bit during that time no matter how much or how little progress you are making. Promise yourself a great big reward at the end but only if you never stray. Start a Blog and tell EVERYONE your story it will keep you accountable to a larger group of people and show you your progress. And one last thing because without this very important step I might never have been able to continue with the commitment, prayer. Prayer is so powerful to help you find strength, piece and answers. Please continue to pray for me and I have started to add you to my prayers. I pray you find your dreams hung high in the sky out of reach and you are able to make a commitment and follow a plan to get there. I also pray I had a little hand in boosting you up.
God Bless
