take time out for the little things....
Wednesday, March 11th 2009
Battle, fight, sacrifice, dig deep inside your soul. You'll do whatever it takes. Anything, just to reach your ultimate goal. Just to get that pound for the week. The pound that, when added to the pound before that, and the pound before that, makes all your efforts worthwhile; but sometimes, you have to take the time out for the little things.My grandson is here tonight, and he is just as little as can be, for a monster that is...
. So tonight's blog is short and sweet, just like my gr...
It's more than just about the weight...
Tuesday, March 10th 2009
The greatest thing in the world is to know how to be one's own self - MontaigneI started this journey because I wanted to lose weight. I wanted to be proud of who I am; but I'm learning that takes so much more than losing weight and being healthy.
A recent Forum touched on how annoying it is when your working out and someone laughs at you (HALFTHEMAN). My first response was self-preservation. It hurts to be laughed at, I would want to get away and/or avoid the person/situation in t...
Pity Party is over

Pity Party is now official over. I'm moving -on!
p.s. I loaded my before and after pictures. Check out the before! I wanted that posted so that anyone who thinks I don't understand what their going through can see it. I do know what their going through, I've been there, done that...and it's not easy doing it alone. I want to be there for anyone who needs support. I want to cheer them on their success, comfort them when they fail, and beam with pride when they reach their goal weight....

I wanted one pound, one measly little pound, each and every week. I know I'm at a healthy weight now. I know I should be ecstatic with the progress I've made. I know. I know. I know. It's selfish, it's vain and I wanted it.
I gained a half pound.
. A half a pound. OMH, I'm acting this way ...
My enemy, my friend
Saturday, March 7th 2009
My enemy, my friend.Food is my friend.
I eat for pleasure. I eat to celebrate special occasions, family gatherings, holidays, relieving stress with co-workers, romantic dinners with my husband, bonding one on one with my children. Eating for pleasure serves its purpose. I can't eliminate it, for it is my friend.
I eat for nourishment. I eat to strengthen my body. I eat for strong bones, powerful muscles, flexible limbs, shiny hair and healthy teeth. I eat to prevent sickness ...
