Because I&#39;m a role model to someone who sees me quite often, I don&#39;t feel I&#39;m being a responsible person if I head back to my old weight loss rituals. <br /><br />I&#39;m trying to but am finding that to make the circle complete, I need support from people who are ready, able, and willing to give it -- which frankly doesn&#39;t leave a lot of people in my circle.Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00590080159710061572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8732324277704529787.post-13591730819488137452009-10-20T13:05:22.381-05:002009-10-20T13:05:22.381-05:00are you sure you aren&#39;t looking for excuses not to get your eating under control.

It&#39;s not a diet. It&#39;s not a magic pill. The first two weeks were the worst. I felt hungry all the time...but in three months, I lost 13 pounds. <br /><br />Because I&#39;ve got an inner competitor, I started competing with myself - how many foods could I find that were zero or only one point. I can chow down on a cup of spinach, a cup of zucchini, and a cup of green beans and that&#39;s ZERO points. <br /><br />Long story short, I started eating better. I started eating right. I made better food decisions. <br /><br />And since I believe in leading by example, my husband started eating better, too...<br /><br />xxooPeggyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09848194956406520874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8732324277704529787.post-36294560774269798672009-10-16T11:20:11.756-05:002009-10-16T11:20:11.756-05:00You can call me anytime!
