Welcome Group 3!

Welcome Group 3! I am so happy you've decided to make this journey with Becky and I! Please take some time to explore this Blog completely. The Blog will act as a communication board amongst our group members, so feel to reach out for support if you need it. I am looking forward to our first meeting on Saturday! Have a great Preparation Week! : )

  2. This is my first time blogging too! I changed my previous screen name (32Luckylady) to my real name b/c i wasn't sure. I also posted a picture of myself. Well, I don't know about anyone else, but I've had a very emotional year with eating. Growing up, food was never something that was forced on me or my sister, so it was never an issue. However, as I got older, I noticed that I started eating to comfort myself while under a lot of stress. Now, I find that I eat when I am feeling down and out, only to feel so guilty afterwards. I also notice how my body changes when I don't choose healthy meals (ex. bloating after pizza or other fast foods and feeling fatigued). Today, I even said to myself, "Might as well eat all of the junk I can before Monday (when we start)". Why is this? I really cannot wait to get back to my SELF. Somewhere along the line, I latched on to other's eating habits (loved ones) because it was just easier to eat what was/is put in front of me, than to prepare my own meals. I know that meeting with all of you and sharing our thoughts and experiences with food and weight, will help me along this journey that I have been wanting to take for a very long time- the journey to a HEALTHY, PEACEFUL, AND FULFILLING LIFE where food is not about suppressing feelings, but is all about nourishing my/our bodies.

    Namaste

  3. I'm so excited to finally end this maddness to dieting! I've also never blogged before. I can't tell you how many diets I've been on since my first born. I want this to be a change for the best instead of a diet. I usually eat none stop right before I do a new diet but this time i'm not doing it. The reason all my diets didn't work was because i quit them all after 2 weeks! I'm not quitting this time. The only thing that will be hard is mommy's medicine at 5:00pm! I look forward to the last diet i do
