Hey everyone, thanks for stopping by.
My name is Alice and I would like to help you get physically fit and healthy while working your way to financial freedom and abundance. I will be sharing with you my journey to becoming physically fit and healthy as well as the steps I am currently taking to achieve my goal of retiring early and be financially free.
Growing up, I never had any issues in as far as my weight is concerned. I wasn’t fat at all, on the contrary, I was classified as underweight; underweight, not malnourished. Underweight and malnourished are two different things.
It wasn’t until I turned twenty that I started putting on extra weight, which is quite evident in my college yearbook. But I wasn’t really bothered at that time because I thought I could just shake off the excess pounds in just a matter of weeks. My plan was to skip a few meals and engage in more physical activities and sure enough, I did.
Almost a year later, I landed my first job and in just a few months, I almost couldn’t recognize myself. My face looked bloated, my chin had doubled (maybe even tripled) and my legs and thighs got really huge! I wasn’t as effective in my work as I used to because I felt so heavy and I get tired easily.
It’s at that point that I made a decision to get back in shape so I started taking Herbalife nutritional shake mix as meal replacement which is quite expensive at that time. After two months on this diet regimen, I gave up because I wasn’t seeing any results even though my distributor kept telling me that I was looking great and I’ll just have to continue.
So how did I lose weight? I went on a “natural fruit juice diet” for six weeks. I didn’t have any solid food, just natural juices such as coconut water, welch juice (this is what’s recommended because it’s 100% natural) and lots and lots of water. It was really difficult at first, I struggled to control my cravings for food every time I see my boss and his family enjoying Thai delicacies. (We were on vacation in Phuket, Thailand during my 6-week juice diet.)
Today, I maintain my weight by trying to eat healthy foods, drinking more water and sleeping for 7-8 hours a day. I still indulge myself at times with some sweets but like what they say, “Everything should be in moderation because anything in excess is harmful.”
I also would like to share with you the steps I’m currently taking towards achieving financial freedom. I have been working for “somebody” for more than 20 years now and it would be really great to be able to quit my full time job, be my own boss in a business that I am passionate about and retire early.
