From Beer Gut to Six Pack |
My ultimate goal is to really just get rid of my beer gut. It’s intimidating, it’s frightening and it’s pretty damn heavy… I can deal with the man arms and I actually enjoy a plump bottom, but this mid-section has got to go!! I’ve been meaning to change my lifestyle and behavior for the longest time… but it has become such a part of me, the selfish person within feels like I wouldn’t be me if I changed it… I drink beer, I smoke cigarettes and I eat like it’s nobody’s business… And exercise on a regular basis? What’s that? How does that work? I am a walking bad habit but in reality… I am really just shortening my chances to a longer and fulfilling life… and I’d like to live until I’m 95 but I can’t do that if I continue to live my life the way I’ve been for the last 32 years.
I’ve even dreamt about being thinner and healthier again… one morning, I woke up with a kick-ass 6-pack!! I was thinner, had a toned body with gorgeous arms and oh so sexy legs!! And then I woke up from the dream that I woke up with a 6-pack & this fabulous new body but it felt so real!! I look in the mirror, I look at photos of me and I think… What the heck happened to you, woman??!! If and WHEN I do get rid of the beer gut, I’m going to invest in more color in my wardrobe… even though black is slimming, can be sexy and elegant… it really is a bit boring when you wear it just about every single day! I really just can’t wait to incorporate these phrases: “I’m going to the gym today” or “I’m going for a RUN” on a daily or weekly basis… That will be truly monumental…

Cecilia,
I feel like I know you… I mean… I feel the same way… I am going to follow your progess, while I try my own diet and hopefully we’ll both make it!

I totally know the feeling! The worst for me is when i am sitting down and i glance down at my stomach of rolls. Not pretty. Sometimes its upsetting but with this new year, I am going to use it as a source of motivation. No more rolls and no more black for us Cecilia! 6 pack here we come!

You have a natual personality that shines. I’ve known you for nearly 18 years, and you have a spirit about you that I admire. Keep it up, I will be checking on you!
