Get moving girl!!!

**SIGH**: my reaction to the realization that it has been two years and I am still at my "halfway" point. Considering that I have been halfway working out and halfway eating right, I suppose it all makes sense. 

New day, new goals, new inspiration!!! Stay active!  I will be attempting to document more to keep myself motivated. I can do this! 👍🏼💪🏼

Half way there!

Ok, so it has been a while since I posted to this blog thing that I started.  I am now officially 75 lb down and two pants sizes.  I am not sure why the sizes arent going down faster except for the fact that my hips and stomach seem to be my biggest problem areas.  I am excited about this journey! My friends and family are definately key to me staying committed to this new lifestyle.  I have my down days (too many to count) but as long as I keep getting back up, fighting, I know I will reach my goal!  A HEALTHIER ME! <3

Hi There!

Just an introduction....
My name is Bonnie Bowers. I am 41 years old.  I have a daughter and step son who make me very proud.  My daughter Amber is recently married and has given me a miracle of a grand daughter, Kaylence, who is now 2.  Justin, my step son, is 21 and lives in northeast Texas with his girlfriend.  I am happily married to John. This June will be our 17 year anniversary. Life is good........Except......

I keep gaining weight. I have become tired. I do not want to be around people.  All I can manage is work and sleep, anything beyond that is a struggle.  Well, that is until recently.  On March 1st I began a new journey.  A new lifestyle.  A change in me.  So far it has been great and I am beginning to feel more "human" every day! I started with the Advocare Cleanse and continued the 24 day challenge.  Now I am still continuing some of the supplements but my eating habits and excercise are becoming more of a routine for me.  Every day seems to get easier. A habit. A Lifestyle.

These are my before pictures. These are pictures of me that I was ashamed to look at.  These pictures are not at all how I thought myself to look.  There is a thinner, healthier me wanting desperately to get out of there!  I WILL NOT allow myself to be that person again.

This is my journey and I am blogging to remind myself of what I want, things I learn and what I can accomplish every day.  I also want to be able to share my struggles so that I can stay honest to myself and others about my goals.  Hopefully this will keep me on track!  Wish me luck! <3
