I am heading off to the gym today to officially fill out my membership. I am excited to actually be doing this.
Since I am feeling so great, I thought I would share an inspirational Weight loss story and her tips today.
Andriette Ward, a pediatric obesity specialist at Childrens Hospital Los Angeles, knows firsthand about struggling with weight: she once weighed as much as 290 pounds. Now, after years of on-again, off-again diets and rollercoaster scale readings, she's learned a few things about fostering a healthy attitude to food.Number One: The foods I'm craving now will be available tomorrow. Pepperidge Farm and McDonald's are not going out of business anytime soon. My obsession with a particular food will eventually pass if I work through it.
Number Two: It's okay to ask for help. Sharing my vulnerabilities actually strengthens me.
Number Three: Food is just for the nourishment of my body; it will not solve anything else pressing in my life.
Number Four: Taking the time to prepare my meals in
the morning, even if it means I'll be late for work, is an expression of self-love.

Yeah!! I'm so happy for you, I'll celebrate with you - maybe just a tiny glass of wine with dinner tonight!! On another note I know you tagged me a week or so ago and I am getting around to writing the odd things about me - I think I had to write 5 - oh so many odd things about me!!! Keep going!!
How fantastic!!! I don't remember the days of being under 200 lbs....and at 260, I have a way to go. I'm so excited for you!!! And although I don't know you, I'm proud, because I know just how hard this is!!!
Congrats to you, yayayayay! You are so far away from 200 now, woohoo!
Thanks for publishing that exceprt cause I cannot in good conscience click that link; as you get to know me, you will see I have this uh "thing" against Oprah, LOL.
Way to go, Cindy. I told you, you weren't stuck.That's great!
Glad you liked the gym.
Happy Loosing!
Congrats on the loss!! WoooHOooooO! When are you going to post a new progress photo?!!
I like your tips, and don't cut out points. Those points that you follow are what your body needs. If you stick to it for a couple days you'll see the points you went over will even out. I hate when I eat something and my body is disgusted with my choice. WooHOoo again on the loss!
OH and congrats on the gym!! I'm loving it, and I hope you love it as much as I have been!
CONGRATS!!!! I remember finially getting below the 200 mark myself! Keep up the good work!!
