In my mind.. depression is one of the most awful illnesses a person can have. Living day to day with a voice in the back of your mind talking shit, and no engery to boot. In Canada.... Who is affected? Mental illness indirectly affects all Canadians at some time through a family member, friend or colleague. 20% of Canadians will personally experience a mental illness in their lifetime. Mental illness affects people of all ages, educational and income levels, and cultures. Approximately 8% of adults will experience major depression at some time in their lives. About 1% of Canadians will experience bipolar disorder (or “manic depression”). How common is it? Schizophrenia affects 1% of the Canadian population. Anxiety disorders affect 5% of the household population, causing mild to severe impairment. Suicide accounts for 24% of all deaths among 15-24 year olds and 16% among 25-44 year olds. Suicide is one of the leading causes of death in both men and women from adolesce...

Day 8 June 19 Oh my word today has been a fantastic day! I woke up and checked my weight and was 2 lbs down! OMG I'm so excited! It is definitely pushing me hard today. My diet has been almost spot on.. besides the donut! That being said I had a super long walk and did amazing during my workout so I'm not horribly worried about it. I walked about an hour today with my daughter in the SWELTERING heat. Or it at least felt that way lol. When I got home I fed the baby and started my first workout of the week!! Total cardio body fix.. You made me sweat today! I also found I was able to do more of the workout which was amazing! CHECK OUT THIS SWEAT!!! There were a few things I was not able to do, or not able to do for the full time. Surrenders.. I literally was NOT able to do these.. I tried SO hard but I couldn't get back off the floor :( I was only about to do 40 seconds of the wood chop squats.. a HUGE improvement Last week, I had to end the workout around...

Okay okay.. So last week wasn't that great.. I had some ups and lots of downs. I really need to stop feeling sorry for myself. Lets do this! Weight: 240.5lbs Decrease of 2lbs Bust: 43.75 inches Increase of 1.25 inches Waist: 40.75 inches Increase of 1.75 inches Tummy: 51.5 inches Decrease of .5 inches Hips: 55.5Inches Decrease of .5 inches Okay, so not horrible! I lost 2 lbs, some how gained a few inches, but lost a few inches! This honestly for me isn't a horrible start, but I must keep going. I have yet to share this blog as I'm still kind of scared, if I can show myself that in the next week I can lose more then I will share this with my Facebook friends .

Day 5 June 16th. Today was cardio fix, I got quiet the sweat on! I was only able to do about 15 minutes of it, but I did the full workouts until the 15 minute mark. I forgot to write down what I ate today, although it wasn't horrible.. Better then most of my days in the last week :) Day 6 June 17th Dirty 30... I love you, but hate you. You literally kicked my ass! I don't remember when I worked out so hard in my life. :P Again I forgot to write down what I ate, having to take care of a 8 month old and help with my step son really doesn't leave much time for anything else. Day 7 June 18th Well today was literally a write off. LOL I didn't do my workout due to having a super cranky baby, and didn't write down my food intake. Sigh At the end of the week.. this is how I am feeling.

I did it again.. Sabatoge. As sit here at 1 pm, eating pasta and meatballs... What the heck man...I didn't do my workout, but that wasn't the worst part! I was out with my husband and baby, and I got thirsty and hungry. Instead of trying to find something decently good for me.. I went to McDonalds and got fries and root beer. Like WTF is wrong with me. I will add my food log, which makes me so angry with myself. Sigh. I had a really nice walk with my daughter, we walked around for about 1.5 hours. Which doesn't burn a lot, but that's okay. I am super excited to start my working out again tomorrow! I will completely skip day 4, and not do my lower fix. To be honest I'm really scared for tomorrow. It is Cardio fix. Yikes! lol

June 13, 2017 Alright.. So today was a complete disaster. It was about 30 degree C where I live today, making it almost unbearable in the house. I did 10 minutes of the upper fix workout before dying. Like I think I actually died! As well I may have had some food I shouldn't have. Sigh! But that's okay.. Move on girl! Green pastures and such. June 14, 2017 Today has been much better! It is so much cooler so I was totally pumped to start the day! My eating wasn't to horrible.. I did have some juice. But no pop! WOOT :) Todays workout was supposed to  be lower fix.. but I read that calendar wrong and ended up doing Pilates. Oh well! Ill do lower fix tomorrow ;) Todays workout wasn't too horrible. I did almost the WHOLE workout using modified moves. At the end of this workout there is a series of plank workouts and after my first plank.. I literally could not push myself off the floor. I tried and tired but just couldn't. As well my back did hurt a ...

Today is the day...and so was last week, and the week before. I have been wanting to lose weight and get healthy for what seems like years. I just don't have the drive, nor the support to do so! I have a horrible relationship with food.. and in turn a horrible relationship with my weight. I have always had issues with eating what ever I want.. with no care as to how it will effect my body. High blood pressure and diabetes run in my family.. and if I don't do something about it now I'm afraid I will end up with both. Sooner then later. I have tried many times to lose weight with no luck. I say luck.. but luck honestly has nothing to do with it. Time after time I start this kick, where I will not eat anything bad for me. No pop, no sugar, no junk. Within a few days I fall off the wagon because I crave it more then anything in this world. This crap that I put into my body is like a drug.. I stop but I always keep coming back because I feel so awful without it! To top off...
