GOD is by my side, with him I can do anything, SO I will start my life over again? I have mastered my RECOVERY from all drugs & alcohol for the past 7yrs now. I am going to STOP SMOKING & OVER EATING! Those are my last 2 Addiction's that I need to get a hold on now! I will try my hardest to do just that, I know what my over eating is doing to my weight, I add to much creamer to my coffee, plus I have to eat cookies or some pastry with my coffee. That's my downfall? No More If I don't buy it I can't eat it! I have been drinking DIET SODA's for years now? BUT, that hasn't helped cause I shouldn't be drinking SODA's anyways? I have tried stopping before, IT"S LIKE I AM Addicted to it? I am pretty sure I am. But, I have heard from recovery meetings that you can CHANGE a habit in 20days consequetively? SO I will see if this works for me. All I need to do is just take a stand & get with it, I haven't really been committed to doing this yet? I have just been letting myself go? I know what I will do now. I do all the shopping so I can change the DIET in my home anytime, starting now? I Will let you know how things are going, sucessfully or not. CAUSE I don't want to become DIABETIC like my mother, I have a feeling that I am very close to being one? IT's runs in Native American families, when they get to be around my age. GOOD LUCK Everyone else who is trying to start anew just like I am about to. It's gonna be kinda hard cause I only go shopping a couple of times a month, so I have to plan my meals carefully. I can do it, IF I REALLY TRY TO? It's up to me now! I have my son's eating sweets with me nowadays SO NOW it's going to be a struggle for us all. But, they wanted to do this long ago? SMOKING is the going to be hard also. MAYBE I will talk with my doctor about this? I think there are other options for smoking HELP ANYWAYS! GOD WILL HELP me in my bid for Weightloss, I am the one who needs to put my foot down, I mean shut my mouth constantly. I need some DENTAL WORK SOON, so this will only help me with my food intake issues. I PRAY THAT SUCESS will be with me, ONLY I CAN CHANGE MY HABIt's I made for myself now! DEB.
