QOTD

Quote of the day from The Beck Diet Solution by Judith Beck, PhD:

If I continually remind myself of all the reasons I want to lose weight, staying on plan will be easier.

List the reasons you want to lose weight.  Reread that list often, especially when you feel like you may falter.

Have a great day,
Kim

 

Yanno Kimmie, when I was huge and my boobs and belly were huge, I didn't even need this list.  My boobs were a billboard that may as well have said, "SOMEBODY HELP ME!'  They were a constant reminder.

Now that all is well and the boob and belly drama is over, I NEED to make this list.  At the top of the list is that with being insulin resistant, I am like one doughnut away from type two diabetes, and since I really really really don't want to go there, somebody around here named Mary had better keep hasself away from the starch and sugar.  I've learned a few things in my weight loss travels.  Like for instance, Krispey Kreme is the Gateway to Hell.  A lot of thickellas actually think that it is a heavenly place that smells good and comforts your soul, but that is actually a diabolical trick that sucks you in and makes you partake of the Devil's Ambrosia.  As a repentent loser, I have moved away from the darkside and found that if God made it, that's the best way to eat it.     

I'm trying to think of which is better for the number two spot?  Being able to stay looking cute in my new clothes or workouts being easier when I am eating right.  OK, I'll admit it, looking cute in my new clothes is the bomb, so I'll go with the vanity angle!

Yes, the Advantage Response cards!  I did mine on hot pink 3X5 cards and have them in my purse.  You're supposed to read them twice daily or when you're tempted.  Being hot pink, everytime I go in my purse I see them and it's a reminder without even reading them....LOL.
