Secrets of Success

Toxic People

I Confess…when I get a toxic person on the phone, and they get into their negative dialogue…I take the phone away from my ear so that I can’t hear what they are saying but I can hear just enough to tell when they stop talking. And I never tell them.
I’m trying to master the art of zoning them out when I’m face to face.... I’m not there yet... But I hear practice makes perfect.
My bad...I know…but I’m sooo much happier

Life with 4 children, sick dad, work and more

I use the everything has a home method, as soon as you are done with it put it away- if it doesn't have a place then toss it! ALSO I use this method in my calendar- every school play, every pto meet, dr appointment, work schedule, vacation, everything gets put on my master calendar along with who is babysitting and what's for every meal! my life is in a detailed book so I never miss a step.

Green Tangerine!

put a quart of water on to boil. Add 4 bags of green tea, (shown to boost metabolism 12% by drinking just one cup) a sliced tangerine, (it's chemical composition increases sensitivity to insulin and stimulates genes that help to burn fat). In the morning, fill your favorite drinking glass up with ice, pour the brew to 3/4 full and top off the rest of the way with water. Enjoy for the rest of the day!DO THIS EVERY NIGHT AND DAY.

Keep The Faith!

Believing that I can jump back
Believing that I can see it to the finish line
Believing that next time I will be stronger
Believing that my pants will feel bigger, the scale will say smaller.

I suggest three ballerinas diet tea. one cup a night will deal with help with water retention and help with cleaning your colon all at once so you are successful with continuous weight loss

Glass of water before I eat not any doing and a glass afterward

Get Your Nutrtion Easily

Avocados deliver almost 20 vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients. They have good fats and fiber. Although high in calores a medium avocado is around 200 calories but the nutrition is good. So have half one day, the other half the next.

Attend an OA meeting

Although SP is great as a virtual community for dieters, sometimes I feel like I need a face-to-face support from people who are going through the same thing. That's why an OA meeting is so great. Makes me want to be abstinent from harmful foods, so that I can brag about it at the next meeting! :)
