Holding Pattern....

Exercise is key -- 1100 calories and tracking grams of fat and carbs don't matter if movement is not taking place.  That's all I have to say - getting and grip and making sure I am moving.

Did This and Got That

If you can't see the image, it's the scale w/me below 140 (139.8 -- 139.6 w/o the phone).  I'll integrate exercise after 3/22.  Did have a treat last night though - hadn't eaten anything all day.

What's New

What's new is that I am varying what I eat even more.  You know how blogs are boring without pictures (or links in this case) so here's a link to image and info about my new favorite produce item.  It's fennel - a cross between celery and mint and I like it. I slice it and it's the pasta substitute in a vegetable based soup.

Two tricks that work...

...are diet and exercise.  Know that there is a mindset that sustains and stretches beyond fitness. Keeping it moving....

Smh...it's a good thing, though

I'm shaking my head at my poor, almost abandoned blog.


So, where am I on January 25th, 2012?


Well,  around the last week of December, my weight had gotten up to 153 pounds -- as large as I've ever been in my human existence.  Went through my annual cut-away time before my birth anniversary.  There I lost some of the pounds --I can say there's ten pounds less of me now, but this up and down cycle has to end.


I went to a life changing event called the Landmark Forum in December.  Something I heard there made so much sense.  It was this:  change is more of the same thing in a different form.  What I  actually want to do is transform and let go of something (or things) to become someone else. Transformation takes place by renewing the mind.  That's the focus this year.  If that happens, then without any certainty, then the change in what my body looks like will take place.


Blogs are boring without pictures, so let me post my scandalous before pictures that were taken the last week of December.  Yeah, I kept my clothes on.  The enormity of my arse and those huge growths on the sides of my thighs are still very evident.
