    How do you measure success?

    Wow!!! Kassia and Jane, those are great markers. I had never even thought about measuring my eating habits!! I could start with success being eating 2 fruits and three veggies per day and at least 8 cups of water!!! Thanks!!!

    How do you measure success?

    Earlier today, I was extremely frustrated because I am not losing weight at the rate I would like. Some very kind souls reminded me that it is not about losing weight it is about being healthy. I knew that, I just kinda forgot. I am so used to measuing success by the numbers on the scale and...

    Hey Ladies, Thanks for the encouragement. I was really frustrated- as you can see if you saw my post in OD. I was literally sitting at my desk tearing up about to really start balling at work. That will not solve the problem. I am going to just "put my Big Girl boots on" and dig in and...

    I feel like giving up!!! :(

    Thank you all for all of your kind words and advice. I know that you are all right. I certainly do need to change my focus and definition of success in this journey to becoming healthy. It is habit for me to measure my success by the numbers and it is another bad habit I need to break. I...

    Okay, I am really frustrated and feeling ready to give up!! I have pretty good. I will admit that my eating has not been absolutely clean. I shared that earlier in the week. I have made some changes and plan to incorporate more. I feel like I am doing all this work to prepare meals, have...

    ~*~*~*~ WW's Thursday ~*~*~*~

    Robin- I love Absolute KB and Cardio Camp. I did not like the Kickbox Boot Camp (not enough combos or kicking for my taste). Enjoy!! If you like kickboxing you will probably like other CIA titles like Criss Cross Cardio and Fit to Kick the latter in vhs only). Both are taught by Sherri...

    *~*~*~*~ Weight Watchers Wed *~*~*~*~*~

    Amelia, tomorrow when I weigh in is my day to measure my inches. I just started to measure last month so tomorrow will be my first results. I do not eat the veggie soup everyday. Only when I know I have gone overboard or had a high calorie meal and my next meal or day needs to be low...

    Lori, No I do not have a DH or kids. I am single (happy about it sometimes :D and sad at others :-( ) I had a bad break up of a long term relationship back in February (and I was pregnant but it was ectopic) so they both happened about the same time. I was excited about the prospect of...

    I recently got the Athletes Stretch and Full Body Stretch (on dvd- two 60 min w/o). I got it from Half.com I have only done 30 min of the Athlete's Stretch, but I absolutely loved it so much that I think I will get a tv episode dvd so I can have many shorter stretch w/o. I bought it at...

    *~*~*~*~ Weight Watchers Wed *~*~*~*~*~

    Hey Amelia, Yes I as still plateauing. I looked back in my food journal. I am thinking it may be b/c I have gotten laxed on eating foods that are not "whole" as snacks. For example yesterday I ate a snack pack of Goldfish for a snack. I should stick to fruits and veggies. I also have not...
