My IP Journey thus far

So I am starting this blog because I need motivation to get back on board my diet plan called Ideal Protein. In May of last year I came to a point where I was mentally ready to do things for me instead of always putting others first. That may seem somewhat selfish but for me it was a great accomplishment. In the Drs office where i was stationed they had just implemented the diet Ideal Protein. I had seen Dr Flesher and his wife Brenda have lots of success and I wanted to get in on the action. The office manager, Melinda, told me that I could be on the diet for half the cost, the employee rate. I was so excited but I didn't think I could afford the initial consultation price. I mentioned the diet to my parents and it happened to be my birthday. They said they would pay for the inital installment of money for my birthday present. I was so excited. I started that week and as of right before Christmas 2010 I had lost 86 pounds and feel GREAT!!!!!! Sure it was nice weighing less but there was so much more to it. I felt good about myself. I had more confidence. I was more comfortable with myself. I was motivating to others. I had such great support from my coworkers and my family and the branch. Things were great and then the holidays happened and I fell off the train. I decided it was ok as long as I got right back on right after Christmas. Now it is January 14th and I keep trying to jump back on that train but I cannot get both my feet on. So that is where the blog comes in. I want to be good. I want to follow the protocal again. I can do it!! I can do it!! I am going to do it. So I am going to make it a point to blog every day to publish my success on getting back on board that train. Hopefully I will have my friends from Vista and my family check in on me from time to time and make sure I am still on the train but regardless this is for me. I want to do this and I can do this. Today has been bad for IP but I start fresh tomorrow. Keep posted for tommorows post. I will be writing how perfect I was for day one back on the train. Just you watch!
