Ok I know I horribley ditched you all and now I am begging your forgiveness with no shame.
I HAVE been reading just about every day though and I have decided to start over. Completely over. I realized that I was doing this whole thing wrong. I don't want the franken foods. I don't want the same thing over and over. I just want the weight off. So, here is what I am resolving to do.
* Start over completely. That means ET miles and all. Just wipe the slate clean.
* STOP STRESSING!!! Last time all I ever focused on was food, food, food. Was this ok, was that ok? I stressed over every little bite, pound, or ounce of water. I didn't think about food that way with my old WOE so why should I stress over my new WOE right?! 
* Try one new food everyday. I HAVE to get this in my head that it's for the rest of my life. I need new tastes, new ways cook and I need to stop being afraid of everything I have never eaten before. After all, everything was new once right? 
* Eat whole, healthful foods that are healthy in every way. Not greasy fried McD.'s hamburgers that I think are ok just because there is no bun. No more franken foods. 
* Excersize. I have got to get moving! 
* Be just as supportive to you all as you are to me. That means reading AND replying to everyone else. Not hanging around and lurking and thinking I am in this by myself. 
* STICK WITH IT. They say it takes 15 weeks to make something into a habit. At least something as big as this. If I can do it for 15 weeks, I can do it forever. And there is no IF. It's a matter of saying no, so why is that so hard?! 
So, if you made it this far...
What do you think? Is there anything I have left out?
I read what Marie said about that guy's shirt in Italy. Not only did I make it my quote, I printed it up real big and bold and stuck it on the wall in my room where I would see it every day, every time I went in there.
Guess thats about it. Glad to be back ladies (and men
)
Can I come back?
