No secrets or magic beans here!
Yep, this is so true! Happy Friday Mindful Eaters! Hugs Debbie
Posted: 03 Dec 2010 03:14 AM PST Sometimes there are no SecretsYup! I read this title somewhere else and it got me thinkin'. I was talking to someone yesterday and said almost the same thing. If you're gaining weight -- you're eating too many calories. It might not seem fair -- "my hormones" you say (and believe me...I am expecting many "I told you so"s about that one in the next 10 years) -- but the fact of the matter is: Your body won't store it as potential energy (ie fat) if you actually need it to keep going (ie fuel). So if you want to lose weight, you need to eat a bit less than you do now. If you don't want to eat less but you still want to lose weight, you need to move more. Two options. No secrets. No Magic Beans. This weekend, spend some time really giving it some thought. Do you want to do this ...or not? Either way is okay but being muddled (wanting to keep eating and moving the same amount as usual) will keep you at the weight you are and add to your frustration. Just make sure you are clear in where you want to be and your chosen method to get there. |
Debbiejean....NO secrets...No magic beans...just the cold hard truth!!
I hope I continue to go in the direction I am going. I am slowly losing this weight I gained and feeling so much better about myself.
Mindful eating...being accountable for what I eat...this is a way of life...not a DIET. I know what I need to do...I never want to go back to where I was.
Love ya....hugs...connie d

Me too Connie, I never want to see 300 on the scales ever again.
Slowly I'm taking my regain off tooooooo....Slowly but it's going away and I'm not on a diet!
No stressing about my food choices, just acceptance of what my body wants and stop eating when the food stops tasting fantastic in my mouth.
Of course I hiccup when I'm full or I will get a runny nose. I try to stop before my pouch says "don't take that extra bite or you will be sorry".
Connie, you are doing great!
