  1. How I Gained Weight

    by on 01-02-2010 at 07:25 AM (A Little of This; A Little of That)
    I awakened this morning contemplating weight gain. How fun is that? lol

    There are a few ways and reasons I gained in the first place.

    First was possibly menopause yet, I'm not sure of that one. I hadn't gained before I got married at 55 and I'd gone into it a few years before OR, maybe I just didn't notice which we'll get into in a bit ~ the noticing, I mean.

    One thing I'm sure of is going out and eating. Once I realized how much I'd gained since getting married ...
  2. Addictions ~ Bored with Raw? ~ Emotional Eating

    by on 12-04-2009 at 09:55 AM (A Little of This; A Little of That)
    Again out walking and the subject of addictions came up for me.

    Now, I've always said I'm not the addictive type. Basically, I've never been addicted to the common substances which would be caffeine, nicotine, sugar and alcohol. Of course there are other drugs such as over-the-counter, prescription and illegal none of which I've taken in quite some time yet, I know others have and gotten very dependent on them.

    What I'm doing here is throwing out some stuff to see what ...

  3. Interesting Contest Results ~ So Far...

    by on 10-18-2009 at 10:39 AM (A Little of This; A Little of That)
    I'm finding the results of my poll quite interesting. It's obvious people are not looking at the content of my program before voting ~ Either that or, the content of my program isn't clear.

    My program is NOT about raw! It's about eliminating the habits and and cravings that keep people from succeeding on whatever food program they are on. Although I do recommend eating more fruits/veggies, etc. throughout the program (how else can one become healthy?)... it's definitely not raw specific. ...
  4. Raw Spirit Festival, Prescott, Az.

    Made it back. Looooong ride out. Began at 7 a.m. Friday, stopping at Henry's to pick up some food because I knew I'd be tired and didn't want to have to search out a place to eat in drive-time traffic. Got some large Romaine lettuce leave, tomatoes, avos, olives, bananas and apples. I'd also made some coleslaw with home made dressing.

    Arrived about 3:30 or so after having stopped at a couple of rest areas for food, water and relief.

    I was pretty tired and it was pretty ...
  5. More AHA!!!!

    by on 08-04-2009 at 11:11 AM (A Little of This; A Little of That)
    This morning while in the shower I was thinking what I'm going to be talking to my students about in the "Tap Into Your Ideal Weight" classes and BAM!!!! another awareness.

    If you've read my previous AHA moment post, I'd become aware of how, when Himself leaves in the evening I had thought I overate because of loneliness yet realized it was more a case of being free! (as though he'd been depriving me of eating in some way ). Well, this morning, in the shower, I ...
