Karen, you made me think about this a bit when you said you had decided you'd never get back to a size 0 again and you are okay with that!

Thanks for the compliment Patty. But trust me there are days when candy corn is counted as a vegetable, the answer to muffin top is to eat more muffins, ice cream is a dairy portion, apples are a fruit only when incorporated into a dessert and chocolate is viewed as a vitamin.
I think we all know what to do and how to do it but life sometimes gets in the way. I often find myself thinking there's got to be more than working at work and working at home. Yet, I'm grateful for that job that helps pay the bills and I am grateful that I have a home that I can come home to that keeps me warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Do the people that reside in the walls of both drive me crazy and make me question my choices in life and continue my search for a desert island and a winning lotto ticket-the answer is yes.
I strive to get up at that terrible hour on the clock on weekday mornings and feel good that I'm doing something good for myself and there are some mornings that I truly feel good about it and there are those mornings that I just out and out dread it. I truly don't enjoy exercising especially at that hour but I do know that the mind body connection is so much better when I push myself to keep at it. There are times when I have to step back from it all because it's just not working for me but somehow I always find my way back.
Eating healthy has always been easier for me than exercise but as I've already stated there are still those times when the bad is just so much more satisfying!
So much of our worries (especially us worry warts), Aunt Flo or her evil remains can play havoc with us. Our journey to a better healthier way of life has lots of twists and turns along the way and all I can say is that being part of this board has truly helped me navigate me through the twists and turns and getting back on the road again. Don't ever feel like your a downer. Journeys have their bumps and twists and turns. We'd all have the answers if that wasn't the way!

I'm not sure I'll ever be happy with how I "look" but as of now I do feel great about how I "feel". In the last few years I've really worked hard on getting myself into shape (of course there are always improvements needed), building muscle and gaining more energy (what I happen to be most happy about).
