REBOOT

So here I am again.  I have been MIA for several months.  "Life" has transpired since I last posted, which I have in turn let take a toll on my body.  Well I am tucking my tail and admitting that I have not held up my part of the deal I started to blog about.  So I do not know exactly where to start as there are a million thoughts running through my head, but I am going to just pick up and then move on.

Fast forward to current day....

Hi.  My Name Is Rusty.  I started a 10 day Juice Fast and then QUIT after 24 hours.........

I know it has been a long time, but didn't I say that I would NOT "do any dramatic diet changes as in becoming a vegetarian, or starting a supplement program.  I am determined, as I have always been, to just eat HEALTHY & BETTER."?

Yes that is a statement from a couple of posts that I did in 2013.  

So where am I?  As of a few days ago, before the "10 Day Juice Fast", I was 249 lbs.  What??????!  I was down to 225 at the end of 2013.  What is going on?  I feel like I am a yo-yo. In 2013, I posted 20 times between September and November.  2014?  Once in September.  2015?  Today.  May 7th.  

So yes, I admit, I jumped into a "fad" diet...  "Reboot with"....  
  • Friday: I purchased a juicer from Amazon that was to be delivered on Sunday afternoon.  
  • Saturday: I went out and bout a large amount of produce in expectation of the the juicer.
  • Sunday: afternoon the juicer arrives
  • Sunday: I make a serving of juice to drink for dinner
  • Sunday: I told people what I was doing,
  • Sunday Night: I juiced about 1/2 gallon of juice for the following day.
  • Monday: I drink the juice all day long
  • Monday Afternoon: I begin reading my own blog and realize I was doing what I said I would not do.
So.., Rusty's tail is tucked between his legs and he is admitting it.

Where am I?  I was looking to do a Juice Fast/Reboot of my body?  I was looking for a quick results "diet".  Truthfully I wasn't trying to escape an illness that I was diagnosed with, I was trying to loose weight FAST, without any "work".  So here I am after 24 hours in and I realize what I was doing.  After telling some people on Sunday about my plans, one person said that I should begin blogging again.  I began thinking about this and realized that I was doing my best when I was putting my thoughts on the keyboard.  The moment I let "fear" creep in, I quit blogging, quit running, quit loosing weight, and here I am again.

So where does this leave me?

I COMMIT to begin blogging once a week.
I COMMIT to work out at least 3 times a week.
I COMMIT to begin eating "CLEAN/er".
I COMMIT to contact some specific people to help hold me accountable.
