"Hi Paula! Yes, I read it and even commented on it - something I almost never do. I thought the girl who wrote to Roni first had some good things to say but she also seemed a bit judgmental - like the stuff about lying to ourselves, etc. I go back…"

Paula commented on Cindy's blog post I stay away from all carbs. That's the secret!
"Extreme? Of course. It is they type of carbs that can lead to weight gain. Processed mostly. Fruit, veggies, seeds, nuts, whole grains are all carbs. And those who follow a diet that contain all of these are usually not struggling with their weight.…"

Got in another good day

Posted on May 21, 2013 at 8:44pm 3 Comments

Another good day in. Maybe I am just finding my groove. Making good choices seems to not be so daunting. Nothing new going on here. Still finding my way. Here is to another good one coming my way.

Procrastinating

I have not made that Dr appointment. Actually I have only been to a Dr once in the last 2 years. I was not raised to go regularly and frankly I don't really want to face that scale number. Isn't that insane? I know what it is, but it feels like if I go, my weight gain isn't my own dirty little secret. That I am a failure. That the Doc will think it is simply a case of overeating not something more serious. I wonder if I could go to…

Looking for answers

Posted on May 19, 2013 at 10:51am 8 Comments

I have gained weight over the last year. Not to state my diet is perfect but most days I do eat well and I exercise 6 days a week. After a road trip to Florida in March, I got home and was horrified. I had "swelled" from the waist down. My husband described it as "looking like the Michelin Tire Man" and was concerned. I have experienced swelling in my ankles for some time but attributed it sodium and old age. After 3 or 4 days I was back to…

No excuses

Posted on May 13, 2013 at 8:04pm 3 Comments

That was today's mantra. I made good food choices and I moved up on Power 90 from 1-2 to 3-4. It sure did kick my butt, but in a good way. Work is work, but I didn't let stress open the gates on eating. I am amazed that although stressed, I wasn't shoving food. I think this healthy thing is emotional as much as it is physical. I think until we fixed the inside issues we will never be able to…

No more slacking

Posted on May 12, 2013 at 11:20am 5 Comments

After seeing Angie's pics, I decided NO MORE SLACKING. Lynn and I are going to kick things up a notch. We know what to do. Now we are just going to do it. I want to buy cute clothes. I want to want my picture taken rather than running from the camera. I want to hear compliments. I want to like me when I look in the mirror. Stay tuned my friends as I plan to hit victory lane this year.

UGH!

I suck. I have been making zero progress for TOO long, but I am struggling now to turn things around. Enough said.

Thank you for the website!  I also found a good one on clean eating: http://www.thegraciouspantry.com/category/basics/

 

I will have to ask you questions as my clean eating journey begins!

Hi Paula! I get frustrated by the slowness of the weight loss at times, but truly, I had really given up on myself, so things like not smoking or not eating sugar are so important that the pace doesn't matter that much. I was just kinda in a rut with my life and letting things run their course, I was secretly unhappy but too discouraged to really work hard at changing my ways. One day a friend of mine emailed me some "old" photos, and my jaw dropped...yeah, I was MUCH thinner, but it was more seeing the confident, sassy me in the photos that made me sad, then I realized those photos were from three years ago! I had morphed into a completely different person in a short amount of time; losing the excess is like literally reclaiming myself! The support of thr people on this site is mind-blowing, it keeps me working hard. :)

Thanks so much for your sweet comment!  Too bad the scale doesn't agree with your assessment!  I'm getting used to my hair.  At least, if it isn't the cut I wanted, it doesn't look bad.  :)
