A new year is like wiping the slate clean and feeling fresh and energised about the year ahead. I decided to start the way I mean to go on, I would invest in me too by getting rid of the excess weight I had slowly accumulated over the past 2.5 years since getting pregnant. I wanted to feel full of energy again as I approach 40 this year (wow that sounds so scary!). It isn’t like I have lots of weight to lose but I was feeling sluggish and got on that sugar craving cycle (many of us would have had that?). You are fed up with how you look so you think I will eat chocolate to make myself feel better – hmmm that really makes sense doesn’t it!!!!
I started this new journey 4 days ago and already I feel amazing, I have lost so far nearly 2kg and I am eating more fruit and fibre and the sugar cravings are passing. I must admit I was hungry for the first couple of days doing the Lite N easy but the food is really good and I love the convenience of not having to measure things etc.
They say 40 is the new 30 and I must admit I still feel like I am in my 20’s and then I look and the mirror and see some of the lines and think wow what happened! My life hasn’t been an easy one and I have many challenges to overcome such as domestic violence and the after effects on my children etc, but this has made me a stronger person and led me to where I am today and on this amazing path of helping others. We can sit back and think what if or in 2013 we can decide this is my year and I will live the life I want to.
What are your new years plans, what have you decided to change now the slate is wiped clean?
What did turning 40 mean to you?
2013 is going to be an amazing year and I am really excited from a personal and business perspective about what is to come.
