Fat Unhappy Emotional Rollercoaster

Q. Victoria,
I read your newsletter every week and I want to say thank you for being there for me. I don’t have a lot of positive people in my life, so I really appreciate your love, humor and
Kindness. I feel like you are my friend as well as my personal trainer.

I am writing to you today because I feel like I am losing it! I get up in the morning and I have the best intention of eating right and having a good day but by 3:00 in the afternoon I am exhausted, irritable and I cant focus to save my life. I feel like so unstable.

I know I am not crazy or anything, I just have little to no energy and I suffer from severe mood swings. My life seems okay. I have good job and my husband is totally sweet to me.

We have been married three years and working towards saving for our first house.
I am not depressed and I have no desire whatsoever to go on anti-depressants. I hear they can make you gain weight and a bunch of other stuff. I am just sick of being fat and unhappy, so the last thing I need to spend my paycheck on drugs that make me gain more weight. Now I am not dissing anyone who is on them, that’s their business. It’s just personally for me, I am wanting to heal my body and emotions naturally so that I can be healthy for a lifetime.

I think I am eating right, but it’s hard to know anymore since most magazines advertise fake healthy food. You think you are getting a healthy protein bar and it ends up having a lot of sugar and additives in it.

Can you shed some light on the mood swings and how your program could help me so that I can get more energy, get back to my pre-marriage size and enjoy the blessings I have been given by God. I don’t want to be like my mom who is barely moving, always complaining about her health and IS NEVER HAPPY! I want to change. I want to enjoy every second I am alive. I want to “celebrate” life the way you sound that you are.

A. Karina,

I feel you girlfriend!
Like you, I am a woman who has personally struggled with obesity, low blood sugar, poor self- esteem, and lack of motivation and looked for practical helpful information. My health problems were the catalyst that spurned the passion I have for teaching, coaching, dancing, writing and research.

Before I took control of my health, my destiny, and my life, I was totally unstable. I was an emotionally wreck. I could cry at the drop of a hat about anything. I was totally paranoid for NO reason! I didn’t trust my own judgment even though I ran a corporation.

I’ve Had it With My Fat Abs!

Victoria,

I was watching TV and I saw an ad about belly fat and I was wondering if it is as dangerous as the ad said. You know that they just want to sell you a bunch of expensive pills and then they tell you, you don’t have to exercise and you can eat whatever you want.

I have a big round belly and I hate it. I hate my fat abs and I want to do something that works. It’s not so much buying the pills that worries me, it’s a waste of my time and money and still never being able to sit down without my stomach resting in my lap. I feel really self-conscious. It seems that the fat is getting lumpier by the day.

What is the truth and what can I do to get rid of this stuff?

Carin

Carin,

You have asked some great questions and you should be worried. Let me break it down for you.

1. Fat over the top of your abs is dangerous to your health!

2. You have to eat the right foods! Certain foods help you burn fat, the wrong foods will make you gain MORE belly fat!

3. Exercise is Vital. You have to move and do cardio to burn stored fat. You have to do the right exercises, the right way to re-flatten your abs while you are losing fat.
