I'll be checking in often! Doesn't take much some days to throw a wrench (or small order of fries) into things. But, equally, some days just a word or two of encouragement, or a "been there" story is enough to get things back on track.

 

I think I need a Gunny too! It made me laugh!

 

I'll check in often!

Morning.  Believe it or not, I think that if you start viewing those fries as globs of fat sticking to your arteries, you might begin to think differently.  I started on the road to heathier eating about 20 years ago.  It has been a slow process, but I was like everyone else, I loved those chips, fries, and fast food goodies.  But I almost lost my father to a massive heart attack and I started working with my doctor to be more heart healthy.  Believe it or not, now when I see people eating such unhealthy things, I really feel for them--and I feel a bit smug because I beat the desire mostly for the stuff they are eating.

 

I am a testiment to the fact that even healthy food can make/keep a person fat.  But I know I can change because I've already made a huge change in my life.  It just takes time and patience--and effort.

 

I'll be so glad to have you here when ever you can pop in. 

 

Hugs,

Anita
