Hello to me!
I looked on the internet all day today about bloggers that was in my situation. I have researched and read everything imaginable about weight loss. What to do? Well what I have concluded is - exercise and keeping calories between 1200 to 1400 cal. WW, Body for Life, Atkins, and
So in my learning for the past year. Here is what I have to do.
Drink Water
No caffeine
Vitamins
Eat Fruits and Veggies (preferably fresh)
No sugar
No White flour
No Fatty meats
Walk, Walk, Walk
Workout, Workout, Workout

As I sit here
Tuesday!
2 cups of coffee w/ ff cream

Well here is the scoop. We are heading to KC on Friday. I am ready to get away. We get to go to my parents for the weekend then Chris's Mom for Christmas. Chris gets his staples out of his leg Wednesday and a hard cast put on his leg. So that should be fun. ;)
I plan on walking today and I will try to get as much as I can done at work. Here I go!
Thanks Jullian
Slow and Steady
Remember the fable about the tortoise and the hare? The hare got off to a zippy start and seemed sure to win the race. But he didn't, did he? The tortoise, while naturally much slower than the hare, kept moving steadily towards the finish line and was able to cross first.
What's the take-home message of this fable? Slow and steady wins the race. To reach your weight-loss goals, you need to switch from the hare's to the tortoise's mindset. In other words, you must break the "all or nothing" mentality.
Do you start diets with superhuman resolve — determined to eat right and work out seven days a week without fail — only to fall off the wagon and give up hope?
This kind of approach to anything — especially to your health — can be very tempting, and may even feel motivational. But I'm telling you right now that it's a dangerous approach that will only set you up for failure. Human beings are imperfect. It's inevitable that you will eventually skip a workout or give in to temptation, and you'll feel like a failure and want to give up entirely — i.e., trade the all for the nothing.
So, start thinking like a tortoise. Pace yourself. Allow yourself to have a slice of pizza or take a day off now and then; just don't stray too far from the path that will lead you to your goals.
Perfect!

What is wrong with me.
I must be depressed. All I want to do is eat and sleep. I must be depressed.
K - I just came back from walking and it took everything I got to finish. I am so tired and sluggish. I am not going to eat like that again.
Going to see my hubby tonight and then to a AA Meeting! My son stays late after school to make up some homework.
