I have to admit I have always been secretly jealous of the folks around me who can sit down and eat a box of ice cream, half a pizza or a bag of Hershey’s kisses and not gain an ounce. GRRRRR right?!
Recently it was made extremely clear to me once again that the little choices are what keeps me in the constant battle of the bulge. I am addicted to food! There I said it. I love food and everything about food hence the constant battle. It has been said that there are 2 types of people, those who eat to live and those who live to eat. I have pretty much lived in the latter group, however with crazy life events and their effects on my life in many ways, I am realizing that the other “group” is where I really need to be and my small daily choices either empower me to go there or do the exact opposite, keeping me in constant battle.
I love to write–it soothes my soul and gives me an outlet to the thoughts that tumble their way around my brain. This blog is in fact a part of a new beginning for me. Not only am I working on healthier life choices in many ways not just limited to food, I am working on capturing in my memory the little moments that make each day a new beginning and hopefully encouraging and motivating my family and friends to do the same.
Some days I may rant about some new recipe I tried that is yummy and mostly healthy too or you may find me jumping up and down about having met a weight loss goal (I am right at 10 lbs down in my quest of 50 down) or it may just be something one of my precious ones did or said. I have also always been big on watching for God moments, and wow has He been working overtime for our family lately!
For those of you who know me, you know how I tend to be wordy. I am going to attempt to keep this short and sweet and to the point. You are welcome to tag along at any point in time.
