There is no magic solution 4 weeks ago

to this goal that vexes me every morning when I look in the mirror.

Eat healthy…Eat moderately…keep hydrated…rested and EXERCISE!!!!

very simple instructions if I should choose to take the challenge. ;)



Discouragement haunted me 1 month ago

in this goal because I was waiting until I reached the perfect weight to buy new clothes and pamper myself…

Beating myself up for who I am today was not the answer. I found a line of clothing that looks great on me as I am today. Plus I have gotten my hair and nails done and started a healthy eating and exercise regime. Taking excellent care of myself has become a priority.

When they say beauty comes from within it is true…the sparkle in our eyes and the brightness of our smiles diminish any flaws we see in the mirror.

Today I feel beautiful and in control of my life.



I recently met someone who is an inspiration 3 months ago

He’s lost 100 pounds and is really enjoying his life! He’s even running marathons.

I have a whole new resolve about this goal! :)



Cut out fast food! 3 months ago

Eating fast food has become a bad habit that I have fallen into this summer. It is easier to drive through and catch a bite than to come home and cook.

Bad choice for me! I can smell fries and gain 10 pounds.



To be honest I am 3 months ago

heavier than I have ever been in my life…well not really, considering the steroids and yet…much more of me to love than I even feel is sexy.

Tonight I went out with a friend and she was the center of attention! I loved that for her! I am rather shy and keep it cool.

Then some guy from Texas came up & started talking to me..a liar and a Texan…who knows? who cares? What liars give their real name???
He made my friend feel bad because he liked me & she is undoubtedly more beautiful…he gave me a bogus number & yet his real name…I am not sad or even surprised…I’ve lived a full life and yet…

If he calls me I will be totally surprised.



Warning! Warning! 4 months ago

oops! Going the wrong direction! I have been stress eating again…my jeans were tight this morning!



Watching what I eat is becoming 4 months ago

much easier. Now I have to integrate exercise into my daily routine. These pounds aren’t going to melt on their own.

The problem is I haven’t found anything but dance to entice me to excercise everyday. Maybe I should find an aerobics or jazzercise dance class here in the wilderness.



Now I'm Average 4 months ago

That’s what they say my size is in the US…average! I am totally surprised!

I thought I was way overweight. I was but have lost about 4 sizes so I am halfway to my goal.



Loving myself where I am 4 months ago

is the key for me to make good choices everyday. I have been beating myself up until recently. Then one day I looked in the mirror and thought oh my God it is a miracle you have survived everything you have been through.

I actually started to treat myself like I treat others…with love and compassion.



Reading labels on food 5 months ago

is amazingly interesting. Not so much the calorie count or ingredients but what they consider to be a serving size.

Oh my gosh! I’ve been eating for 3 people all these years! :)
