I am making A LOT of bad food choices and drinking SODA!! Ugh, I am kicking myself in my ass telling myself that I have to smarten up! But for some reason I keep going back to the carbs and soda! I do eat my protein first and I don't drink and eat at the same time. I do exercise (3x a week at the gym plus trying to get into jogging). I am throwing myself a pity party here lol! I am part of OA and I do have a councelor (sp). I am not in any mood when I eat the carbs/soda I just like them. SO What I would like to know from you, my friends on OH, is how can I stop eating the carbs and soda? I have offically cut the soda out (as of today). So what can I replace the soda with? I cannot do anything with aspertame (sp) because it gives me really bad headaches! I need something with flavor because I cannot drink water all the time! Thank you in advance for you help and advice!

Topic: Summer / Fall

Summer is winding down, fall is winding up...it won't be long and we'll be knee-deep in Thanksgiving and holiday parties!!!

How is everyone doing? Doing well? Sticking to it this summer, and getting lots of activity???

I took a little break (more than a week, less than two) from my regular activity (swimming at the Y), but I also tried something new called the Spartacus workout...yipes...not for the faint of heart! One of my co-workers does it (a former Marine, mind you...)...I was sore for DAYS...I mean, it was about 6 days before I even felt normal again...and my level wasn't as intense as his...lucky for me, a caught a break when he and his wife had a baby on the 7th day, and he took a week off...hahaha! RECOUPERATE!!!

The Y (Waldo County) has since fixed their pool (it was closed for over a week, to replace the boilers), and is back up and working now, and got a nice swim in yesterday.

Everyone enjoyed their summer, I hope!!! They are to short here in Maine...but makes us appreciate it all the more!!!
