Have had a busy summer. My daughter is now a married young lady. Happened on July 27th. Will always remember it as one of the best days of my life....the kids were SO HAPPY!!! It was good for my Mama heart to watch! The wedding went so smoothly and beautifully........just good relaxed enjoyment for all!
I detasseld corn this summer. Yes...miles and miles of walking the fields in the heat with the youngins. (I work in a school, so have my summers off.) Guess what? I DID IT!!! It was grueling, hard physical work. I feel good about myself for doing it. Folks were telling me not to do it! Ha!! Proved to myself that this body is still capable of a lot! I am 47 btw.
My NoS habits have NOT been going well for me this summer. I have been ravenous from the physical work. And so I eat. You would think I would lose weight from 8 hours a day of physical labor wouldn't ya? Have actually gained about 5 pounds this summer. It feels like a lot on my 5'1" frame. It just puts me at a weight where I am no longer comfortable!! Pulling and tugging on clothes....just yuck!
So, here I am.....again!! I am NOT giving up! I KNOW that this plan is what I need to be doing. And, I know that it works. It has worked for me in the past when I DO IT! I KNOW for me at this point it needs to be about the habit and not the scale. I honestly believe that once the habit is engrained the weight will follow. But the question is how can I truly TRULY make this about the habit when I am here about the weight. That is what brings me here kwim? I can SAY this is about the habit, but really down deep it is about the weight. I think if I can get to the point where this is REALLY and TRULY about habit for me............well.....it would be a good thing. I just feel that. I need to get rid of this strong feeling inside........what if I put forth so much effort and I still have the weight. I think that deep seeded thinking holds me back from really letting this process work for me!
End of ramble........I guess. lol!

I believe in the NO S Diet. It just makes sense! Good common horse sense! It is so simple, but NOT easy.......for me!
