Wake up call!

Pictures don't lie. (Unfortunately)
This is me (Sabrina) and my kids a couple of days ago at Disneyland. I'm in a wheelchair because I can't walk for any length of time due to fibromyalgia. But, what I really don't like about this picture is how FAT I am! How did that happen? And, there are pictures worse than this from our trip. Gah!

I weighed myself this morning, and the scale actually showed a one pound loss during the trip. I'm excited about that, but I know I need to do a lot of work.

Do you watch the Dr. Oz show? I do, and it's no secret I love him. He had a 7-Day crash diet on his show a while back, and tomorrow I'm hitting the grocery store to get what I need for it. Here's a link to his site with the segment. Dr. Oz's 7-Day Crash Diet Link.  It's very reasonable sounding. Normally, I would never think of a crash diet, but this seems pretty darn healthy. And look at that picture. I have to do something.

I'll let you know how it goes.

  1. I honestly don't think my sister looks bad at all. I don't like looking at myself, some days more than others, but I can't see what she sees in herself. Though, I am glade to have her support and butt kicking if I ever loose site on what I need to be doing. So, here are my goals for the rest of this year.

    If my sister can do that crash diet thing, maybe I can too. I'll have to see if I have the funds to go to the store...but tonight, it's soft tacos!

    Another one of my goals is to focus on myself more. I'm thinking of trying to enroll in school. Hoping I can atleast enroll part time to get me started since it's been so long. And focusing on things that will make me happy. I'm tired of trying to make everyone else happy but I sit on the computer or the couch eating my sorrows away because i'm not happy...not happy with my looks, with my life, with anything at the moment. Lately I've been taking my anger out on my kids and had to beg my mother to take them so I can start focusing on me and stop stressing out so much. I hope this summer goes by fast because it will be a lot eaiser to focus on me when they are all in school and this will be the first year all 3 of them are in school, even though two of them will only be for part time.

    This summer it may be hard to focus on me because I have my middle childs Tball on Thursdays, and my oldest is in Dance on Saturday, then I still have to take care of them and the family but I'm going to make myself my number one priority...as long as my kids are healthy and safe! :-)
