Time for a Detox or What the hell is wrong with me

I have been overweight my entire life. I have used my weight as an excuse for a lot of things (I can't go overseas-I'm too fat; I can't date-I'm too fat; I can't move to California-I'm too fat). About two years ago I was laid off from a job I hated and I decided to use the time to do my own version of the Biggest Loser. I lost about 50 pounds and was in the best shape of my life. I discovered Zumba and Spinning and while I wasn't skinny-I wasn't shopping in fat girl stores anymore.

Cut to my birthday last week. I have regained 30 pounds. What the hell is wrong with me? I knew that my 'skinny' jeans didn't fit, but I didn't know I was moving so far in the wrong direction. I need to fix this ASAP.

Tomm. I'm going on a juice fast for a few days. I'm be swilling Naked Green Machine (it really is yummy) and visiting Curves. I don't want to rejoin my old gym. Frankly, I'm too embarrassed to set foot in that place. Everyone in that gym was hardcore and I can't take the pitying looks. I'm also going to try to purchase a Zumba class pass and get a physical (something I have been putting off forever).

I'm hoping that by keeping this blog, I'll be able to hold myself accountable, get to my goal weight, and stop all of the excuses.
