round 3 and article

Hey I did very good in my emotional eating quiz. So I guess it is just self control and eating the rights food. And of course exercise.

The body mass site was confusing to me, but I am going to review again and I will let you guys know.

REMEMBER all the classes we have taken on visualization. WELL we can do this with our eating also. Visualize what you will look like when you have lost the weight. See yourself in a new outfit. Put a new memory into your mind of the TONED fit body that you are aiming for.
Scan some magazines for the size and fitness you are looking - be realistic. Place the picture on your computer or Refridge. Look and visual every morning and every night. IF YOU can see it, you can do it.
YES we can!!!

New Eating Plan

Not sure if anyone is at this point yet, but you might be. Since I have actually been on my plan for 5 months now, I am getting to the boredom point.
Here are some tips from a Liz Noelcke a writer for Sparkpeople......
Dig down deep--when in a rut: review goals, have a raw raw session with fellow dieters, splurge on something you have been missing.
Keep it Fresh ---Change type of foods within your plan, Try new things.
Get your family envolved. Have recipe exchange or even a meal exchange.
Drink Plenty of water
Eat more often with smaller portions
Add a new spice to meals

Round 3

Che ck out Flax I have been eating flax lately. Adds a very interesting texture to soups, salads, stews.

Ground flax seed or oil is the best but is perishable. CAUTION Do not go crazy on sonsumption. This is a case where a little goes a long way. 1-2 tablespoon a day is plenty.

Round 3

Since most of us are starting this diet on our own, I want to remind everyone to make sure you have AT LEAST spoken to your Dr. I just received a blood screening when I saw an article by Nancy Howard 10 Screening Test...think about this even though wehave already started our plan.

Caffeine Challenge 1, 2

The Good and the Bad I am very conscious of caffeine, therefore I was happy to read all the articles provided. They are great sites and thanks for the information.

WOW what a site in the nutrition data. Huge place with much information. I started inputing some of the data but that is so time consuming. I am a label reader but thought these labels and data very productive.
