A New Me?

Now that I am 39............is it time to get my act together or what?!
I'm so tired of feeling tired and never losing all my "baby fat" - yes, I'll blame it on my pregnancies. (Of course, it is not my late night bowls of ice cream or my ritualistic midnight snacks or lack of exercise.) I'm 35 lbs overweight and I am not hiding it very well. So is it time to get my cravings under control? I really want to start the "Master Cleanse" and try to do it for 2-3 days. I've never made it to even 2 days in the past without cheating. I bought lemons back in December to do it with and those went bad after about a month. Then I bought a 2nd supply of lemons that slowly molded in the fridge again. (And you know how long lemons last, so this is pretty pitiful). I now have my 3rd fresh batch and I'm really gearing up to not let these go bad as well.

The cleanse is not "weight-loss" although you will lose a lot of "water weight" - but it is more to just get rid of your sugar cravings and to detox your body. You'll gain most of the weight you lose back, once you start eating solids again, but if you eat the right foods you will lose the weight. Brett doesn't believe I will ever start it. I hid the bag of lemons just so he won't think I'm going to "not do it again."

I feel like I am too young to be old physically. I want to be more energetic and not wear my same ugly clothes day after day!
