Watch Me ReThink My Weight Loss
Okay, starting today I am on a new diet. The odd thing is that as of now I am allowed to eat whatever I want. Not only whatever I want, but I was strongly encouraged to “gorge” myself and fill up on all my meals. I can’t help but think all weekend that it’s like my last meal before execution. So while I, for a limited time, am supposed to eat whatever I want, I now have doubts. Do I just sit back and relax and enjoy this freedom? No, I do not! All I keep thinking is, “What if I eat too much?” or “What if I eat the wrong things?” or my favorite thought, “I don’t want to eat all I want. I’m finally ready to do this, and don’t want to accidentally put on weight, now that I’m started.”
Yes, that’s right, I am actually excited about doing this program. Before Nathan and mine’s wedding, for 18 months I had a personal trainer and took different measures to get my diet healthy so I could lose weight. Then, after the honeymoon it was like something clicked off in my head and I just stopped trying. Some say this is the comfort of being in a relationship, or stress from our new life, or even that since there wasn’t a wedding anymore to work towards that I wasn’t motivated.
I think that I was tired of working towards being healthy. I have a problem with the idea that to be healthy it should be a struggle. I love the idea of being healthy and eating organic, but I think it should be the natural way, not the exception. And I was tired of finding what I needed to do, and then hoping on top of that, I could lose weight. I’m not very worried about what the scale says, or what size I wear, but I do think BMI is important, and that how a person feels is very important.
I haven’t taken the past two and a half years off completely, but it’s all been at only half of the motivation that it was. Then, along comes this ReThink program. It allows a person to clean their system, gain a healthy diet, and lose weight, all under medical supervision. I feel that accomplishing their program will allow me to then start off on a better foot, with a completely clean slate. It won’t be such a struggle this time, and I can then go back to my exercise and diet normalcy with the feeling I’ve been looking for.
Unknown Films always tries to come up with ways to think outside of the box, and this year we wanted to do something specifically for weddings and brides. I am going to document my whole process through the ReThink program, with Twitter, Facebook, our blog, and also video webisodes. We will also give away parts of the program, as I try them out, so you can see if you like it. The free giveaways are for everyone, too. And the great thing is that ReThink will do the program anywhere (even internationally) so there is something for everyone! Maybe you are a bride, or know someone that’s going to be in a wedding that wants to feel his/her best also. Tell them about me doing it and they can watch and see what works for me, or just laugh at my attempts. And best of all if you have any questions about what I’m doing then you can find me on any of the above sites and ask.
