Your "first estate", the body, is the house your spirit lives in. Any man that "dates" a temple, without being able to first, go in, to be with the person that lives inside; has no business even approaching the door; and should be kicked out to suffer and ignominious fate. Guys like John Belushi and Jack Black had/have…

Happy Monday! New week. New start. Record your intake. Do it because when you ate it, you did it, anyway. Come on!! We can do this. Thin people ain't got nothing on us; we just enjoyed life more than they every did! hahahaha. Seriously, record your intake. Calories budgets disappear just like money at NM or Lost Wages, NV.…

When 185, forty years ago, 282.7 was laughable. Today I rejoiced as that is what the scale read out was. We were all so young and did not know how beautiful. Grateful to be amongst you. We can do this.

I am less now than I was in August of last year. I could have gotten here way faster but I would have learned nothing. I could drop ten pounds in twenty days but it would serve no purpose. It is not how fast I get there; it is getting there and never, never, never going back. I am learning as I go. Do it too fast, and we…

VALENTINE’S DAY - Childhood heartbreaks when we would hopelessly wait for recognition that never came. We then read the few words on a handful of heart-shaped candies and settle for sweetness ingested. For some of us, grown to adulthood, a box of chocolate gifted or otherwise; then slowly consumed...satiated, but seldom…

Seven in a week! I try for an average of three ounces a day. By September that should be about forty pounds. That plus the twenty or so since last August will add up to sixty. Then, only seventy-five to go and hopefully another twenty years of life on this Earth. Then, on to the next life, where life really begins! So…

200 pounders! Speak up! How’s it going out there; the weekend awaits?!

Two things I have realized: 1. When you track(Food Diary) you realize how much more you used to eat than was necessary. 2. When you track how much you “binge” it still does not compare to what you ate when you did not track. So, get back on that bronco -Ride, Sally! Ride!

SqiLicious is squishing us together into a force. When others look at us, they do not see the beauty we know is in us; but we do. Together, we will turn our individual houses into temples. This is thrilling. We are on our way! Think, Remember Our Objective, Then Decide. We can do this, and we now know it.

Live your life. All American Chocolate Cake Costco, 1 slice, 637 calories You would still have just under 900 calories to load up on- and that Can be quite an array of savory helpings of hot food. When calories are tracked; it’s not restrictive, it’s liberating. The “Don’ts are - don’t forget we are addicted to food, don’t…

TIME TIP - Have the veggies delivered from a LOCAL store like; Kroger/Walmart/Costco even Target. Not happy with what they deliver?...pitch a fit and they will remember you the next time you order. Saves time, because fresh veggies do not keep and going to the store twice a week gets old. Also, Make the Veggie Frittata on…

Just as a group check..... calorie intake (reduction) does not mean reduction in volume that you eat; just in what foods you can eat in volume and still stay under the daily calorie budget. If it were not for being able to eat an elephant's portion of salad; sans dressing and other fixings, or mixed vegetable soup, doing…

To the weight that I lost today; ciao, farewell! May You never cross my or my friends path again. Tomorrow you’ll be joined by your fellow ounces, fickle and feckless. For I own this house, and you, my former cheesecake or enchilada calorie will be house hunting because I don’t love you anymore...
