now i'm thinking about what i ate before too...in the end it is probably a mix of larger than needed portions and too much junk food. (icecream and chocolate are my great weaknesses!) i can't walk by a bowl of m&ms without grabbing a handful! until i can control portions, i will just stay clear!!!! i always found the…

i don't know those lyrics, but here's one of my favorites, especially when doing a spinning class: Risin' up, back on the street Did my time, took my chances Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet Just a man and his will to survive

have you tried any of the Fiber One snack bars? they are really yummy - in some cases better than a candy bar - and very good for you!!!! when i want something crunchy - i try celery and p-nut butter. p-nut butter fills you up. but you need to plan for that cause it can add up calories and fat.

my neighbor e-mailed our pastor (united methodist) and this was his take on it. note this is a bit long....but i think well worth the read The golden rule is really easier said than done. There are several things we must ponder. Here are some of my struggles especially in living the golden rule in the context of a family.…

this evening, my neighbor asked me a very interesting question.... do unto others as you would have them do unto you with that in mind, how do you do this without becoming a doormat, being taken advantage of, or without feeling "pride" that you did what they *should have* done (meaning you are a nicer person than they are,…

do you eat the calories and carbs and protein that you get "added" with the extra exercise, too? or try to keep them lower, but eat the calories and protein?

the poor baby!!!! instead of the lampshade collar thing - try a t-shirt. our dog was attacked by a neighbor's dog in october and had to get staples in her side, lower belly. the lampshade scared her more than the fight i think. we took an old cotton t-shirt (she's a lab - so size large worked) and we put it on her and tied…

I started this plan on Thursday, and so far it is not as bad as I thought. I think the hardest part for me is staying under the carb "goal" each day. I'm not sure how many carbs I used to eat, but I am sure it was close to double what my goal is! Any suggestions are welcome!!! I would like to lose 20 pounds and get back to…
