Yesterday did not go exactly as it should have - I slipped again!
I knew I shouldn't do it but I decided I wanted something to eat...I thought for awhile about what that should be. I looked at the bowl of fruit on the counter and knew that I did not want fresh fruit. I thought about having a salad - even a deluxe salad but I decided that really was not what I wanted either.
The whole time my mind was on the bag of chips hiding in the cupboard. Okay - to make a long story short, I gave in, I grabbed the bag of chips and ate way too many.
I know that I shouldn't have them in the house - I KNOW THAT - but I really have trouble avoiding them in the grocery stores.
I know most everyone has a similar weakness - a sort of addiction to a particular food item. I also know that I TEACH others to never allow those foods in the home or if you do to limit the amount that you eat. I also teach that if you really feel a strong desire for such a food to go ahead and indulge.
So I indulged and now I feel guilty - but I have to admit that I am still thinking about how great those chips tasted!
Tomorrow I will not eat chips - tomorrow I will not eat chips - tomorrow I will not eat chips...........................................................................
Am I the only one that is obsessed with chips?

Lose Fat By Making Healthy Choices
Have you ever noticed that most diet programs are complicated? I mean either you have to buy 'their foods' or you must totally limit your eating habits and add new regimens to your life - such as a particular exercise routine.
The truth is that special programs are not necessary - and neither are special foods. In fact, when you go to the grocery story you will find the healthier choices are located around the perimeter of the store. This will include the basic food groups in most stores.
If you focus on eating right - meaning, making healthy food choices you will likely lose weight. Additionally, you should remember to eat often - a minimum of three meals per day - but 5 - 7 small meals is better. This keeps your metabolism working and you do not get hungry. Being hungry can lead to overeating as well as making unhealthy food choices.
There is no question that exercise is a healthy choice for anyone. But before beginning a new program it is important to visit your doctor. Instead of jumping on board with a strenuous routine try to slowly incorporate exercise into your life. Do things like parking at the far end of parking lots, using stairs instead of elevators, and giving up the remotes.
Believe it or not, those small things can add up. You will slowly build your stamina and vitality which will enable you to do more in the way of exercising. Soon you will find that a regular routine is invigorating instead of exhausting.
Try it - make healthy choices for at least six weeks. Not only will you lose weight but you will feel much better. Oh and here's my sales pitch - my weight management toolkit addresses all of this and much more in detail - in fact it consists of 10 ebooks and the complete package is only $11!
