Even my golf swing is better!
Went golfing last week. Hadn't been since beginning my lifestyle change. Wow! what a difference! My swing felt so much more easy and natural and it was so much easier to stay balanced on my follow-through. I know why those pros spend so much time working out while they are on tour. It can make a huge difference. Hope I'll…

I was not happy about it but I did it! One of my coworkers brought in donuts this morning and I managed to say no and eat my oatmeal instead. Then during lunch they were in the lunch area and I almost caved but I put the newspaper over them so I wouldn't have to look at them. I leave work in 30 minutes, I've gone all day I…

Roller Coasters
So everyone here has had those moments when something they told themselves they'd never let happen.. happens. For me one of those things was I never wanted to have to use the "big" roller coaster seats. A couple years ago, that happened. And then worse. I needed HELP to get the seat pushed down far enough to click. I could…

Success in daily life...a little long.
So, I started on MFP way back in March. Well, I did great until summer hit. I had tons of weekend vacations, parties etc. I lost a little, but not much. For a while I was floating around in the same 4lbs. (Confession: I stopped using MFP) Then my big vacation to Disney was here. A week in Disney. I was determined not to…
