...<em>I made a goal to get out, and be a better friend.</em><br /><br />Isn't this the truth! It's the snacking that does me in. Several years ago I traveled with a friend, and we ate every meal out for over a week. It was wonderful, but I was afraid that my weight would skyrocket. Ah, but we did not snack. And I gained nary a pound.<br /><br />And when do I snack? When I am inside, alone. So you're right, get out and experience life. Have coffee, walk the neighborhood, take the laptop to a shady spot.

Some of it was helped by not eating much during my 4 weeks in the hospital/rehabilitation hospital. Some of it was helped by my increased exercise regime (3 hours of PT and OT each day helped!). But I know I just can't consume unlimited calories without consequences.<br /><br />I know you can be healthy as you discover your new routine!Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03462102833007077300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-435639598621055127.post-57886978026491635562016-07-07T04:02:50.767-05:002016-07-07T04:02:50.767-05:00All I can say, after looking at your main photo, i...All I can say, after looking at your main photo, is "mmmm...scones...!"

I think the next thing I need to understand is that my value is not based upon which pants fit best. My brain knows that; my heart is slower to accept that. Thank you for your encouragement.

Midway through your post, I was talking to your words saying, "Get some comfy dresses, girl!" and then right there - you did! Yay!! I have entire weeks that are just dresses and leggings with long tops (that look like dresses) until my body's hormones decide it doesn't want to eat so much and my jeans feel friendly again. What did I ever do before jeans with Lycra in them??? They are so forgiving! The 50's have brought on this new weight to places I did not have issues with before and it is a hard adjustment for me. Like you, working on acceptance and positive self talk is high priority without letting it all get away from me. Thank you for your honesty in your words. :-)Shari Danielshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04102648925008152040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-435639598621055127.post-90436255744487001612016-06-30T14:49:29.874-05:002016-06-30T14:49:29.874-05:00Thank you, Susan.

I just want to make peace with food, and live in peace.<br />Randomocityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11871574168607613060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-435639598621055127.post-24519803881106958072016-06-30T14:41:03.589-05:002016-06-30T14:41:03.589-05:00I love this, Denise!
