ME!

[LaBellaMamma649]

Ladies, first I hope you all have a fab day.   In the old days, I would eat for breakfast bread with butter and cafe con leche (coffee w/milk) I could do that all day.  The balance of the day was the usual latin food the rice, the beans, the meat or chicken the problem was that I was always fatigued.  I could sleep standing up in a corner. When I divorced my first husband I became worse I ate to help me heal, I did not have anyone to turn to so I turned to food.  At the age of 28 I was weighing 185lbs a size 18 in pants.  My boss/second father gave me a talk that basically said I can not allow myself eat through my sorrow. But that is pretty much easier said than done.  He was very worried about my health and placed me on a diet with a personal friend and trainer he knew.  Bascially, I was on a no carb diet, NONE.  I was afraid I could not make it but my desire to look different was more than the want to stay the way I looked. I kept a journal and wrote everything I ate and drank. After 6 months I went down to 125lbs.  

Then I met my hubby he was a trainer and began to teach me fitness and nutrition.  I currently eat five to six times a day.  I exercise twice a day.  I know that if I can change my eating habits and exercise all of you can do.  I thought writing about it would maybe help someone else that might be lost and wondering how to get from Point A to Point B.  This is my personal adventure I am not a nutritionist or personal trainer (next on my agenda)

I have two daughters 20 yr old and a 14 yr old.  I am remarried to a wonderful man.  Through him I have found fitness and have been working towards getting to my best in fitness.
