My DS saw just my hind end, sticking out from the open fridge, and had to do a double take, who does that tiny hiney belong to!!  made my day for sure, when he said "Mom you look Great!"

Hi Everyone. I'm over 50 and after checking out some posts I think I may be a bit more comfortable here. I did post elsewhere and joined challenges and met some great people but am wondering - after reading about period binging and boyfriends and office parties - if I belong there.
I work part time (20 hrs) in a school and have a private practice at home on Sundays and after school Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I love my work and I usually love my family. Today I was not happy but I didn't turn to the food. I have been following the chicks site for two weeks and it has given me the courage and support to have two abstinent weeks. I don't be long to OA but I follow the Dignity of Choice food plan.
For today I will be happy

 You are taking control, one day at a time!! Every day we have the chance to make good decisions. I'm happy to hear that you are doing so well. I post in the 50+ also, in the Golden Girls. Come on over and check us out.
My motto is: make it a good day. Because i think we have a choice. I'ts the way we look at life and the decisions we make. We can't controle what others do, but we can controle how we look at things and how we handle them.
Good luck. I wrote that and then I realized, that LUCK has very little to do with it.

Tape Measure NSV!
I have lost 2" in my waist, finally reaching the elusive 34" benchmark for women and decreasing the odds for metabolic syndrome and pre-diabetes

I went to Panda Express (Chinese food) and I fully intended to get a plate of orange chicken, kung pao shrimp and lo mein. BUT...I gritted my teeth and only got a diet Sobe drink and left. I ate a Kashi snack bar and drank my Sobe. Whew!

These are all old posts, but I still want to put one out there. I am having such a hard time sticking to things, think the goals were too big, long term, for me anyway. I am a small goal person, when I have tried the big ones, well, just trying to start out exercising in small ways and my back then my knee acted up (too much I guess), so I have started just a few exercised for my gut, just a few at a time, increased a little over a week, and today, when I got up, instead of feeling like I have this watermelon like thing attached to my front, I feel a little stronger in that area. It feels like my middle is a part of me, if that makes sense, instead of this thing to carry around.
