New year, new life, new body, new ME!

A lot has happened since I was last posting on my blog..

I started discovering (good) music, especially in my hometown Omaha. I've attended countless shows and festivals around the country. I also started hula-hooping! It's amazingly fun and a fantastic workout. I even performed a few times - and with FIRE! I've made new lifetime friends and had the time of my life. Between the constant drug use, dancing, and partying, I've hardly had to worry about my weight and size. However, now that Winter is here, I've packed on the pounds and people are definitely noticing...

"You look soooo much healthier!"
"I'm glad to see you're putting some meat on your bones."
and the kicker... "You used to be so skinny."

I know these comments are supposed to be compliments. But that doesn't lessen the sting of those words.


So as the new year rolls on through, I've decided to start restricting and dieting again. The book, Look Better Naked, also made me want to restrict again - the covergirl is perfectly thin and at the same time, also looks a little like me... except... better. She's much better. She looks confident in her own skin (she is posing almost nude in all the photos!), she probably likes the way she looks. She eats healthier than me and exercises more. She what I want to be.



To kick-start my weight loss, and my quest back to thinness, I am going to do a 2-day cleanse. Here's the plan:

- Only liquids.
- Under 400 calories per day.
- 1 SlimFast Vanilla per day.
- Absolutely, positively NO SLIP-UPS

The last part is extremely important for me. 99% of the time, my weight gain is binges and junk food.


Wish me luck ladies, XoXo
