They say the more water you drink, the easier it is to flush the fat from your body.
I've been putting away so much water, I nearly feel I could float away!
But believe me I am not complaining one inch! In fact I am ecstatic that I'm chugging away! The only thing is I can't get too far away from the potty...if you know what I mean. Flush, flush flush! Bye bye fat!
Plenty of water is great for my complexion, too. My skin always looks especially pretty and glowing when I get lots and lots of clear H2O. blemish acne cream

I'm sold on nutritional supplements. For about the last 5 months I stopped taking all the vitamins and nutritional supplements.
Boy what a huge mistake.
I've really learned my lesson, BIG TIME!
Not only did I pack on the pounds because I was constantly hungry, but I had zero energy. Exhaustion would meet me at the breakfast table and worsen as the day progressed. In the evening my heart would burn, just like it did before I started the program.
Now, I've only been back on the program for a few days and
1.) I have amazing energy
2.) I feel like a million bucks
3.) I'm drinking a ton of water
4.) Whatever that bout of depression that was hovering over me has disappeared
5.) I'm OK about my relapse and all my gained weight. I'm just going to pick myself up and start again!
At first when I started putting on the weight I didn't want to see anyone. But all that did was make matters worse. So finally I said I'm coming out of the closet on this weight gain and I am confident that this is the best thing in the world for me!
What is done is done... and today is a new day! Today is the day to reach towards one's dreams! weight loss pill

Don't you wish you could eat anything your little heart desired and not gain an ounce?
I know I do.
Unfortunately, for most of us the calorie equation doesn't work like that. We have to pay a price for our calories, fat grams and sugar.
I think this is one of the concepts I have not been able to grasp in the way I should. Of course in my head I understand this concept. But somewhere the connection is faulty.
Somewhere there is a disconnect between that ice cream that calls my name and what I want to achieve. I certainly do not want to achieve obesity, health issues, diabetes, and an unattractive body that doesn't look good in clothes and looks even worse in the buff.
Why I ask, do I get these moments of deep hunger when nothing else seems to matter, except feeding that internal beast. funny t shirts

Good Morning Tallahassee!! Let's See How Much Weight We Can Lose By Christmas!!!
Finally! (I say as I catch my breath.)
You always know that sooner or later, if you've gone hog wild following a diet, you are going to have to face the music!
Today was that day for me.
After being totally disgusted with myself for packing on the pounds over the last few months, I returned to Winner's Weightloss Center to start again.
With a new school year about to start, this seems like a perfect time to get back on a regime that will help me to be the best possible version of myself.
The last year was very hard for me. I went through some stuff that tested me to the limit. While this should not be an excuse, the truth is that I am an emotional eater and when my world is a bit crazy, I find solace and comfort in food.
The good part of this is that I recognize what is happening, but the bad part is that sometimes I simply don't care, especially when I'm stuffing a second bowl of ice cream down my throat.
When we do this, we really need to go within and try to find out what it is that is causing us to want to over-inflate ourselves.
What are we hungry for?
I believe a chief thing that I was hungering for was all the nutritional supplements that I had become accustomed to while on the Winner's Program. These supplements provided nutrients that my body craves and they also helped to tame my unhealthy cravings.
Tomorrow will be my first day officially back on the diet. I'll try to log online and share my journey with you and if any of you in the Tallahassee area want to join me... come on board and let's see how much weight we can lose by Christmas!!!
The Winner's Weight Loss Program is a great program for losing weight. Any failure is entirely my fault. Ultimately the success or failure of weightloss rests with the participant.
If I had not allowed my own life stresses to become stumbling blocks, I would be 127 pounds today. But in two hours, today will be history, it will be the past. When I wake up on Thursday morning, a new hope will greet me and lead me into another leg of this fabulous journey where I will try once again to win my ongoing battle with emotional eating, compulsive eating, sugar addiction and carbohydrate addiction.

My Wishes Sent Out Into The World! Yahoo!
In recent years I've gotten very good at shopping for the best buy.
Perhaps I'm getting a little bit of help from my ancestral line. Perhaps now that same ancestral line can help me to beef up my bank account.
Next time I post in this blog... I want to be richer and thinner! In fact every time I sit down in this office, I want my wealth and my good health to sky rocket!
I've read that if you send your wish out into the world... it will be manifested. So I tried it and guess what? It worked!
A fluke? Maybe. Maybe not!
On 5/18/08 I posted my wish on an index card. My wish was to go and stay at a great beach house this summer. Two hours ago, I just returned home from my THIRD beach weekend this summer. My cost= 0 On three separate occasions I catered a Friday night event and the other nights were furnished to me by my client.
Why did this happen? I suppose it might be a case of the Law of Attraction... a law that says that we attract what we are looking for in life.
So I'll just put it out into the world right now...
My wishes as of August 10, 2008 are:
1. To get excited about exercise, eating right and taking good care of myself.
2. To get my column nationally syndicated.
3. To write and publish BESTSELLERS.
4. To win a Pulitzer Prize for my writing.
5. To once and for all get to 127 pounds and maintain for the rest of my life.
6. To buy my own fabulous house at the beach and to have plenty of money for the rest of my life.
7. To meet, fall in love and eventually marry my true soul mate.
8. To live every single day in the full manifestation of who God created me to be.
9. To make a positive difference in the world.
10. To leave something of value behind down here when I eventually go to Heaven.

My new clothes are too tight. My old clothes are fortunately too baggy. But my weight is dangerously heading in the wrong direction. Helllpppppppppppppppppppppppp!
What is a girl to do? I could start by keeping my hungry mouth closed!
Why am I so ravenous anyway? I need to get to the heart of this.
Is it because I don't read the Bible like I once did? Is it because my heart has been wandering away and my spirit has drawn drafty?
Is it because I took all that I was learning to heart, and then sadly discovered that my heart was too naive, and that so much of what churches proclaim is merely lip service.
I think what I have seen and experienced over the last 7 years has hurt me and while it shouldn't... it does. I can't help it. It is the way I'm wired. But somehow I have to get better at separating my God that has never failed me from the God of the churches. Of course, the problem is... this is the same God.
I want my naivety back. I liked me better when I took everything I read in the Bible to heart. I liked me better when everyday started and ended with that extraordinary online connection to the best power source of all.
So I guess the fault lies with me... lies with me disconnecting from the power source because I let my jumbled up ideas get in the way.
I thought if a church proclaimed the word of God, their actions would manifest that.
But what I failed to understand was that every person who walks throuh the doors of a church is at a different place in their spiritual journey... and it is ok. In fact it is better than ok! It is beautiful!
It is time for me to return to the heart of worship. Who knows... maybe that deep hunger will once again be quenched by the best food of all... food for the soul!

I play around way too much with this diet. It is often said that diets don't work.
Diets work... it is not the diets that don't work. It is the dieters that don't work.
We get tired of the same ole, same ole. We get fed up with the deprivation. We lose interest and we often go back to our old ways...the ways that packed the pounds on in the first place.
How is it that a person who is genetically predisposed to being overweight can once and for all conquer the battle of the bulge?
If there is a way I want to know about it.
But I'm almost certain that the answer ultimately sits within that space between the ears. For in that space we can make the defining choices that will impact the rest of our lives.
Ok... so a diet can give us the vitamins and supplements our body might need. A diet counselor can give us the pep talk to keep us on track... but until we get our head on the right track... we are spinning our wheels in the sand.

I am usually thought of as far younger than my chronological age. While I have never been the least bit disturbed by my age, I must admit that for the first time in my life, I have experienced a new sense this summer about this whole aging process.
There are things that frighten me, health things and cosmetic things.
Even though we can not turn back the hands of time, ( and who would really want to anyway!) we can make smart choices.
From the skin care products that we purchase to the nourishment we select to enrich our bodies, minds and souls.
