A quote...so true!

Our job in this lifetime is not to shape ourselves into some ideal we imagine we ought to be, but to find out who we already are and become it. --Steven Pressfield


To give of yourself, you need to know who you are. Happy Tuesday! Hugs Debbie

Thank you Debbiejean.....I really like this quote...it is so very true!!

Down 9 pounds this month....woooohoooo!!  Mindful Eating is the answer!!   Posting on Fitday...is helping me keep my calorie intake in line.

Thanks for all the encouragement....I couldn't have done this without you!!!!

Hugs....connie d

Wonderful Connie, you are doing fantastic. Yep Mindful Eating is the key for both of us.
When you tell yourself nothing is "off limits or bad food" you are in a different frame of mind. A new way of living and thinking of food.

We are more than a number on the scale. We are learning and really being mindful of "do I really want this?" Sometimes it's yes but now I'm learning nope, don't want it right now...and walk away. That's pretty freeing in itself for sure!

The feeling is so wonderful....it took a month but I finally feel I am where I need to be. Sure I may slip once in a while but I will not continue to slip. I feel like I am in much more control of what I want to put in my mouth!!

It is liberating!!!!

Hugs....connie d

Liberating!!!
Control...Mindful Eating...Listening to our bodies...craving or wanting...Joyfulness...and most of all...FREEDOM! BECAUSE DIETS DON'T WORK. Yep, we are learning, have learned and less stress all around.

Oh and Connie it's not "slipping" you just chose something that you wanted. Betcha pushed the food or dessert away from you when it stops feeling fantastic in your mouth too!!

Yes...liberating! Hugs Debbie
