I love to eat....

I love to eat....and I mean eat. But the problem is I need to lose some damn weight!!! I pride myself on being a very confident person,  but I have my days when I don't like what I see. Days when I want to get up early and go for a walk, but I stay in bed instead. Change is not easy and it takes time....if only I didn't enjoy eating so much.

One way that I'm trying to live a better lifestyle is by changing my eating habits. For the most part, I try to have a healthy balanced diet.  However, sweets and Big Red soda are my weakness (Big Red is a TX thing, but if you've had one you would understand).  I can drink a Big Red every single day...especially if it's ice cold...and you get that burn when you swallow.....ummmmm, lol. Anyway, if I didn't have such a love affair for those two things I would be just fine.

One way I try to kick start my lifestyle change is by doing a detox at the beginning of the month.  I only eat fruits, vegetables, certain grains, and lots of water. I've done it before and it's normally successful. It's a blueprint for me to do better for the month. Today was the second day of my detox and my ass failed horribly!!!! I started out good, made an Egg White Omelet with Spinach, Mushrooms, and Onions.  I had a glass of water with cucumbers to quench my thirst. Then the Devil showed up...those damn Krispy Kreme donuts!!! Our manager wanted to treat us, and we all voted on donuts....including me. Y'all,  I tried to be  strong. I paced back and forth  and looked at them. I told myself, "Nikki, your detoxing, just eat your snacks". My snacks were a boring ass banana, carrots and hummus. You know that was a losing battle against the Krispy Kream, and with that, and my ass was on those donuts like women at a Louis Vuttion sample sale. It was bad....like, "Murda...Murda she wrote...Murdaaaa she wrote".

I'm not gonna say how many I ate...but know it was more than one AND I had a Big Red to wash it down. Just call me Ms. Fat Ass.... so tomorrow I will try to have a better day. I don't believe in beating myself up when I fall short of my goals. I dust myself off and try again. The battle is not in failing....the battle is not giving up on the fight. So wish me better success tomorrow loves...until then, Stay Fabulous.
