Proud Moment!!

Today we had our Christmas Luncheon; whic,h in the past was a really big deal. All of the food. There are 11 of us making all of this food. (Cheesy Potatoes, Meatballs, Shrimp, Dips and a vast array of side salads and desserts) But today it was not so bad. I started by getting a small plate, looking over everything on the "Menu" and made wise choices. I didn't take anything I wasn't supposed to. I made sure I picked things high in protein. I didn't have any desserts. I had a moment, shed a tear and went on with lunch. I feel like I have broken the cycle. Like the addiction is over. I've been this person for 32 years and it has been so hard to change. No diet ever helped but this has been the most wonderful thing in the world. Thank the Lord for Dr. Zeni. He's the best!

Stacey, You couldn't have done a better job than you did today. Mark this one down in your scrapbook (*you ARE keeping one??? aren't you????????*) for a revelation/moment of greatness. I'm so proud of you, and this is truly something that took courage. Thank you for sharing it. Stacey W 310/147

Stacey, Good for you!!!!!!! I've been in a lot of these situations lately (cookie swap!!!) but I made it through, and I'm glad you did as well. Keep up the good work, and realize that you are so much smarter now about food, and you'll be ok! Brenda

We did the cookie exchange today too. I had to make 10 dozen cookies. Last night was ok though. I was baking them and didn't even want any. It was strange. Stacey B

Stacey, that is awesome. You deserve to be proud of yourself. Keep up the great job you are doing. Positive vibes Megan

Great Job Stacey, I love Dr. Zeni tooooo!!!!! Isn't it great to be able to now choose what you want and not just take everything, and over eat----We have a great team with Dr. Zeni and we will be great---hope to meet you at Jan support meeting. Marie

Good going!!! Isn't it wonderful when we don't have to deal with the old holiday guilt and pig-out syndrome? Congratulations, I hope to see you at the Jan support meeting.
