My mother struggled with her weight for all her life. Now she is diabetic and she weighs 112. I'm going to visit her for 10 days each month and eat exactly what she does, writing it down. Thia ia cheaper and more effective than Jenny or Nutrisystem. Until I can get there, I will be sticking to Slimfast for a jump start.
I will gladly share what I learn and my daily progress. This ismy plan and I'm sticking to it.
Gwyn,
I am sorry you gained your weight back. I know how that feels.
Your plan to spend time with your mom and eating the same way she does sounds like a good plan to me. The journaling of the food you eat is a great thing. I hope that gives you the jump you need to get back on the losing track.
Do you have diabetes like your mom? I do not remember reading that you have that problem.
I will be thinking about you and how you are doing with your mom.
Don't forget to write in and tell us what you are learning and how you are eating. I would love to hear that.
Hang in there! I am here for you anytime.
Missy
Yes, I have diabetes. 10 years now. My mother's weight loss is from when she was diagnosed. That is why I amgoing to follow exasctly what she does. After 3-4 months, I can mix and match days and keep going. Oh well.
I've been reading about diet soda and have decided to stop. Iced green tea, oolang, orange andother herb tea will be just fine for me.
One activity I am starting next week is Tea Time. I want to have a snack ready for when Stephen gets home from school. Milk and me with tea. Some small treats for him andfruit for me. It will be fun for everyone. Tea Time I'll let you know how it goes.
