Re: End 30 days today!!

WEll,..Duhhhhh!!!,..LOL

and I mean that in the best way possible..... I came into this not for health because I did not have any bad health concerns (still fairly young which is probably why). But I did this mainly to get ahold of that part of my life. Everything else is great, great career, love life, family life, crazy, wonderful friends who I love. I workout 4-5 days a week live for my family and WEEKENDS,. (its almost Friday,.. its almost Friday)

The thing that I wanted was to get ahold of this eating bad thing. The yo yo dieting etc,..I am trying to change my immediate family but I can not control my extended family & friends. Because one day I woke up and decided I wanted to be healthier. The best I can do is live well and hope I inspire them to change by seeing me do it.

I come from a huge New Orleans family where we grew up living to eat. You can NOT change 30 years of living like that in one 30 day fast. But you can make progress, I think starting this way is great! I am sofa king proud of myself. Really I am. If you would have asked me even last year I would have said Heeeeck no with a few explitives thrown in for good measure. LOL

I have come really far in my thinking,.. do I still have a way to go yes. But If you would have seen my family and myself 3 years ago, wow! We were all headed for an early grave. So allow me to do this because I have come far, Really far and I have started to change the way my son and my adoptive (soon to be, taking my sisters child) son will live their lives. For them they will just do it because its there and they will get hungry and just eat. For me, ( not so ) I have to plan dinner just like I plan after school activity schedules, cleaning chores, our weekends and every other aspect of all 5 of our lives I include my yellow lab in there as well,..lol

I am still very much a foodie and ex cook, probably always will be. I cook 5-6 days a week I have to even when I could not/can not taste it. Its part of being a mom.

So yes I see where you are coming from,.. but I can't let you rain on my parade cause I feel freegin great!!!
