    JFT: when I go out with my friends today, I won't eat unhealthy foods just because they're not supportive of the changes I've made to my eating habits.

    Absolutely fantastic paintings Jacqueline. The flowers are my favourite only because watercolour flowers are something that I really love. It isn't easy to do and I wish I could master this medium. I love to copy drawings from free copyright art books. I am hopeless at drawing anything from my mind only. I really admire people that can just sit down and draw anything.

    Love seeing your art work, it is really beautiful. Wishing you a great year.

    Best wishes to everyone. Here's to a healthy & happy 2016! I feel like I have to start over...my weight has gone back up & I feel I've lost control between Thanksgiving & New Years. Really need to get back on track.

    Walk 45 mins.
    Weight train if Pilates class is cancelled.
    Drink 9 cups water.
    Track all meals.
    Put away decorations.
    Try to be patient with my children who argue constantly!
    Stop the emotional eating.

    Glad to see you back Sara. I am the same way, the past 3 months not so good. But we can all do this!

    Joan6630- your post was the first I read this am & I feel I could "cut & paste" the same words. I'm so glad to be back & have you & the members of this group for support & inspiration. It's true, it's a new year, a new start towards our goals.
    Thank you for taking the time to write & for your encouragement. :)
