Until those two loves reverse, I'm not going to get smaller, and I don't think that reversal is going to happen anytime soon.Stephanie Blackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08848784501386694887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-544841714052873855.post-51904173728195787562010-04-28T14:23:38.263-06:002010-04-28T14:23:38.263-06:00Z and I once had what is known as our "year o...Z and I once had what is known as our "year of ice cream". At least a bowl every night. Finally we just couldn't have it sitting there in the freezer. It could only come in for special occasions. So now I know if I really want to make myself NOT eat it, it just can't be in the house. Otherwise I'm toast. <br /><br />Now, I DO like to exercise, and still haven't started since Maeve was born. It's just so difficult to get going! Sigh. I ate waaaay too many brownies (according to my brain...my mouth had no problem) these last few days, but they were soooo good!fionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00170383000274276123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-544841714052873855.post-91798291617776819722010-04-28T14:14:30.496-06:002010-04-28T14:14:30.496-06:00Mmm chocolate milk...

I ...Mmm chocolate milk...<br /><br />*shakes head violently*<br /><br />I try to think of it as being healthy rather than losing weight, to motivate myself to exercise. I HATE to do it and when I'm tired at the end of the day, that makes it worse. One thing that helped a LOT was cutting down the amount I ate. I hadn't realized I was eating as much as I was. <br /><br />Since I've been thinking about it that way, it's easier to eat my veggies and find stuff to do that I enjoy that is also calorie-burning. And I have found I don't crave the bad stuff so much and it's easier to resist it when I do.<br /><br />I let myself have a little every once in a while, though.Elizabeth Westhttp://aelizabethwest.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-544841714052873855.post-31497583791998355492010-04-28T13:35:17.592-06:002010-04-28T13:35:17.592-06:00Amen Sista!

You're so tired your body CRAVES quick energy = SUGAR. I'm still waiting for that motivation to come my way. If it arrives in sufficient quantity for you - would you mind sending some my way??Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12266580814892668109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-544841714052873855.post-71228607823172596132010-04-28T12:41:35.307-06:002010-04-28T12:41:35.307-06:00And this is why I don't own a car.
