Hi everyone, I just found a great vegetarian recipe from Women's Health magazine. It tasted so good, was easy to prepare, and very filling. Here it is. I added
Tone's Roasted Garlic Seasoning
and I used rice vinegar instead of white wine vinegar because I thought I had some at home it still tasted great. I have been doing a cleansing fast for the past two days I found the Celebrity Two-Day diet drink at Big Lots and gave it a try. I lost 10 pounds like it promised, but I know it is mainly water weight. Anyway it was a great jump-start for me. The only drawback is I found myself waking up a 5 or 6 in the morning, and I am not a morning person. I normally need two alarm clocks to wake me. My clothes are starting to feel right again, so that's a good sign. Thanks for listening and good luck to all.

I am sorry to have abandoned everybody, I have just been so busy living life. My body has suffered due to lack of exercise and eating right. I am back on the wagon. I am not going on any special diet I am just going to train my body to enjoy healthier foods and exerise more. I am thinking of starting a healthy lifestyle club in my neighborhood. I live in a new development comprised of mostly military families. Most of the spouses are deployed at some point. My husband leaves this week. There is some interest in a few joining me on this journey. I hope to stay motivated this time. With my husband away for a year I will have time to adopt a better way of eating. My sons will eat whatever I cook, but hubby tends to be pickier. Wish me luck!

Thanks to all for your support. The cleanse is going well I am on day 3. I am just trying to prepare my body. Initially it is hard because I cannot really venture too far from home. I am assured my body will adjust and I will be able to regulate the pace of the claense. I am going to try to eat right because it feels so much better when I do. I tend to lose better in the hotter months bacause I am more active and I sweat more. I would like to say a personal thank you to hedder for all you do to encourage me.

I have decided to begin anew. I want to start again open and honestly. I uploaded my picture because I am tired of hiding behind the image of an icecream cone. Hiding behind food has gotten me to the point of being over weight and ashamed of my body. That type of thinking has to end today! I have been awful with exercising and eating right for the past three months and it shows. I am determined to get back on track. I have been stressed lately with school, and trying to spend quality time with my husband before he leaves this summer. I am also preparing to student teach in the fall. I have been substitute teaching and I really enjoy it, but it is hard work. I often feel drained of energy and don't feel like working out. I realize this frame of thinking is not going to benefit me. Also, when my husband leaves I know it will be easier for me to lose weight. I tend to focus less on eating when he is not home. We tend to eat out less, and my sons often cook for themselves. I have decided to do a 90 day cleanse to prepare my system to clear up and get readsy for weight loss. Thanks to all for your support and kind words. I welcome any positive suggesstions
