And away we go!

It is time. There is no other way to put it.
I keep putting off what I REALLY want to do; yet, I know things will never be perfect; so I might as well go for it.

Of the 55 or so lbs I lost doing Body for Life last year, I have gained 12 back. Actually, not too bad considering how very, very badly I have been eating since the holidays. (OK, OK, that was 6 months ago --yikes!).

It is scarey to think I could possibly gain all that weight back. I do not know how I ever got that heavy. Being unhappy and stressed out for years -- that's how.

I am readying a book on Intutional Eating by a raw foodist that makes a lot of sense. I realize I need to relax into this -- just let it flow.

Oh boy...I am finally ready to go for it!

The hardest thing will be giving up coffee and that wonderful carmel creamer. Those two cups per day get me so reved up that I don't know how I will do without them -- espically the morning cup.

Yet, I am curious to know who I am without the artifical props of caffine and sugar. Ummm....

    And a wonderful Journey it will be indeed!! ;) So - what's the title of the book? I would love reading something like that right now. I think it's something that would really help me because I'm new to all of this. I just know it's 'right' for me - so I'm embracing it. Aloha!!
