Start tomorrow = a year and a half of tomorrows gone by
Yup started here in January ‘07 with the optimism of losing the weight and gliding into 2008 with the carefree attitude of starting another year without the habitual “lose weight” resolution! Hell I’m up 30 lbs since then…Buddy has lost the Slim lol.
Can’t blame anyone or anything (which I inwardly do everyday) instead of being totally level with myself and the addiction I have to JUNK food…don’t get my wrong, I love my veggies, lean meats, fruits, water and all the best nutrition has to offer. Doesn’t do me any good when I’m sabotoging all my efforts with a bag of chips or a king sized chocolate bar.
So why do I do this? Know what the outcome is going to be…is it self medication? Self pity? Seeing a toned woman on tv and thinking “I’ll never get there” and heading to the kitchen for some self gratification to fill the emptiness I have inside me from being a failure at this? Check all of the above. So how do I get out of this thinking? Try to take it day by day, do good for a several days and then slide backwards so fast the scale is smiling it’s evil smile at me again.
Before I wanted to lose 30 lbs, now it’s 60 lbs…need to find that inner strength somewhere deep inside and decide to use it instead of hindering it with negativity…I’m so strong in mostly all other areas of my life, stopped smoking 9 years ago with not even a thought about it, quit cold turkey and never looked back…obviously the Surgeon General is WRONG…Food is more addicting than cigarettes LOL
My thoughts for today, I’ll find my way hopefully soon…
Sending warm thoughts to you for a successful healthy day!

One day at a time. It’s so much more achievable to live moment to moment. You can do it. Start today, now. You can do it!
First off, I have missed you and your blogs. You have been away too long. We are here to support one another, so please join us. You can do it.
I have missed you too. I know you can do it.
Hey there. I had a feeling there was something new I would find here at Buddyslim. YOU.
It is so difficult Shannon, I know. It is strange how we make the choices we do sometime, but I am for one and so glad to see you writing here. It makes me feel less alone. Tonight I make a choice to not eat at night. And I plan to have 3 good days… that is what I want.
LOVE that Jari. Which DVD(s) do you have? Thank god for movement. Take care and have a good night. *hugs*
If you are in contact with Tasha tell her that I hope she is doing well. Went to do blogs a couple days back and then I realized Tasha was no longer in my subscriptions.
