Hi Deb , just cruisin' your thread catching up on news. I wonder if your habits are changing (subconscious stress, eating during night), could you be stressed out about your son leaving to go to Harvard? Big (and inevitable) change for you...........and him. In both your lives. You must really be pr...

This fabulous person named Amy once pointed out to me, with her usual insight, that even just a few minutes of exercise was better than nothing and would be a start to help acquire and keep the exercise habit. Very wise words from my friend Amy . :D And helped me out tremendously during this sick we...

Hi Amy ! Bless your wonderful heart! :D I am still alive & kicking & recovered from a rather nasty bug this week. Mostly high fever, plus the usual workload on top of it so it was a bit of a struggle with very little energy and none of my usual enthusiasm. :( Even though I wasn't posting or reading ...

Hang in there, Eeyore. Sometimes it all seems ajumble and really really hard to take. You are right in letting go of the illusion of control - and just trusting that you will make the right decision at the right moment in time. :? I find exercise really really helps take the edge off and gives me th...

I didn't gain or lose this week on my weigh-in. I'm grateful. I am starting my 8th week of my physical challenge - I should probably call it my physical life, as a "challenge" implies I will complete the task. I am hoping I won't complete this task until it takes 2 undertakers half a day to wipe the...

1.) I need to continue to focus on habit. I really need the foundation right now. I quite agree, sophia. I wouldn't get hung up on weight, scales, losing/gaining or anything other than eating three meals a day & focusing only on that habit - nothing else. We know there are no shortcuts - just time,...

We had home made hummus with pita bread yesterday. What a revelation. I have seriously underestimated chickpeas. I will have the left-overs for lunch and try to make falafel soon. Chick peas are so awesome! I ordered a 10 kg bag of them (dried) on my annual sealift order. I use them in so many dish...
