Detox the Binge

(Why so many blogs lately? I have an INSANE amount of grad work to do...that's why.)

     I would apologize for how I look in that video, but I really just don't care. My sense of vanity is at an all time low on Saturdays dedicated to being homebound. But yeah, anyway, tomorrow starts the Beachbody Ultimate Reset, also known as something on my bucket list of healthy goals. One, if you watch the video in the link I just provided, you can easily see a massive weight gain in my face. Two, I am really hoping this will cure my sugar addiction and give me the opportunity to have a healthier relationship with food. I mean, c'mon, does any binge really need to look like this. Three, despite my binge habits, I really do try to make sound decisions all of the time, and as of late, I've been doing a really great job of going natural, raw, and/or organic for a lot of my meals. The BUR will give me a chance to take those choices to a new level, gain some education on what that kind of lifestyle really entails. And four, my super sexy husband is coming home super soon, and I'll be wrapping up the BUR just days before he's stateside. It's best that I do this when he's away so he won't become a victim of spousal abuse due to coffee withdrawals, and so I can be the best possible me when he returns.

     I'll post a series of written/video blogs about my experience with BUR. I've witnessed the willpower it involves, and the tutorial even states that it will cause some emotional reactions due to the detoxifying process. I'm sorry...let me just say that up front. I'll try my best to provide pictures of my meals, but to be honest, I'll probably forget.

     Most of you are probably thinking, "What's the big deal? It's just a 21 day eating program. Grow up, Abigail, and put down the fork!" Well, sassy, I'll have you know that you don't need a fork to eat a Hot Pocket or Raisinets or Amy's Organic Pizza or coffee or...wait...should I just stop...I'm not making the best point, huh? This is half the reason that I fear this. I have a food addiction. That's why WW is so good for me. I can eat whatever I want as long as I write it down, but again, no one should sit to eat three pounds of vegetables for dinner. Veggies are good, yes, but three pounds! This, I'm hoping, will also help me with portion control. I just remembered that there's one more Hot Pocket in the freezer...do I dare?

     A little shout out to Coach Meridith. Thank you for answering all of my questions so far and being available for my random Abigail moments. I watched you go through the process and was floored at how well you did. I use that as motivation.

Hot Pocket update...I dared. Shame...
