I'm more consistent with this than probably anything else in my life right now. There is a reason for it.... I'm forced to take a lunch break every day and if I don't go work out.....I find myself shopping or eating in restaurants. So I spend money or gain weight if I don't go to the gym at lunch. So blessed to be downtown, I'm surrounded by those three options and I choose the healthier of them. <BR> Yesterday I was in a wei...

The lazy Sunday bloody marys with my hubby? or the occasional candy bar while watching the movie? No, it was the potlucks at work...or maybe those lunches out with my coworkers? Perhaps the candy dish at Lisa's desk...or perhaps the extra glass of wine and appetizers with my sister on weekends? maybe it was the carmaled apples at the pumpkin patch? <BR> I don't know, but according to what the scale said this morning....whatever I have been doing is the worst i...

When a person is depressed or sad because of an event and responds by overeating, or when a person is lonely and tries to fill an emotional void with food, the person is suffering from emotional eating.'' <BR> <BR> "Emotional eating is an attempt to manage mood with food." <BR> <BR> I have been doing great all month, even finally started to lose weight, and today I hit a brick wall so hard my eyes are watering.

I didn't have to go to the party, but I went anyway. There were four Birthday's in the office this month, and as usual...my company over delivered on the celebrations of them. <em>236</em> The deserts were from a specialty dessert shop, of course we only get the best, and there was more than enough to go around. I was about to dish up a "sliver" of each...but I waited just a mom...

However, there is something about the cookies at work that sit outside my office that call my name. <BR> It's always the person that doesn't eat them that brings them in, God bless them. They think they are being kind, that we all need some cookies to make the day better. The gal that brought them today literally sang out "I brought cookies for ev... Wed, 18 Apr 2012 18:39:22 EST
