Motivation is everything. You can do the work of two people, but you can't be two people. Instead, you have to inspire the next guy down the line and get him to inspire his people.
Lee Iacocca quotes

I Hope that it is getting easier to overcome the addiction we have to bad food sources. I call it an addiction not because of our withdrawals symptoms but because like recreational drugs, bad eating destroys the body too, maybe more so. Unclean eating excessively was once our drug of choice and we use to need our fix, but now we are in rehab with only 18 days left to break the habit!

If you haven't heard this, which I am sure you have, I am so proud of each and everyone of you!
Continue to fight for your health!
Make today count.

  • Im having a much better day today than yesterday! Really focusing on all the other things I can do, including changing my thinking when I start to get down, so I haven't reached the point of thinking, "man I need some chocolate". I did two hours of working out today, my c25k, yoga and some walking. My meals have been as follows... (Keep in mind, I have a lot of food issues, so I don't get a whole lot of variety, always looking for new ideas.)


    Snack -3 egg whites before my c25k run.
    Breakfast - Rice hot cereal with blue berrys, cinnamin, and rice milk, with apple sauce.
    Lunch - 3 egg whites with spinach, tomatoes, black olives, ham and basil, with a banana.
    Snack - ham, egg, black olive salad.
    Dinner will be- Chicken breast with marinara sauce and rice and some mixed vegies.

    CUrrently at 12 waters, probably 15 before evening is over.
