No matter what we do. My life style change is that mine and I'm doing the best I can for me. I so love reading what others are thinking, feeling and doing and I don't have to agree with them. I figure if a blog upsets me then it's not one that was meant for me. Just like you did with this particular one.<br />I've been reading a bit of your blog and find you very interesting and you have lots that I can learn from. <br />I'm going to follow you and see just where this journey can take us. Take care and have a blessed evening.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15956818436541141380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069995056260858128.post-42889869354344622542010-10-15T12:58:47.774-06:002010-10-15T12:58:47.774-06:00HI, Vee,
I know exactly what you mean about wantin...HI, Vee,<br />I know exactly what you mean about wanting all that stuff. But, just so you know, it has become easier for me (I am almost 4 months in) at least. That is part of the blogging, too, keeps me honest.<br /><br />I, too, blog for myself. It has been amazing therapy. Like I said above, keeps me honest. "nuff said. have a graet weekend!

Ironically, i've found that doing exercise -- any kind - helps refocus me. Be it a simple 10-minute walk or a bike ride or a full-on slog at the gym, it seems to help mentally and physically. <br /><br />As for the other part of your blog, I am with you 100 percent. Nobody knows what another person's struggles are, their goals are, what their demons are...least of all what their personal physical reality it. I've had lots of bumps and knocks as I try to lose weight and like you have come to realize that it's not just about what you eat. It's about how you choose to live!Call Me Ishmaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10123967336847481576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069995056260858128.post-22089506206335961532010-10-15T08:45:53.607-06:002010-10-15T08:45:53.607-06:00Hahaha. I know the blogger of which you speak.
I...Hahaha. I know the blogger of which you speak.<br /><br />It's funny, I came over here to thank you for the comment on my post--a specific part of that comment was particularly helpful. And it was that specific part that ties in with your rant about the "unkown blogger."<br /><br />First,Thank you for mentioning the gluten weight gain and binge trigger! I don't have many readers who know about that. Sometimes I wonder if I'm deluding myself. .<br /><br />Re: the skin disorder. I'm assuming you're referring to dermatitis herpetiformis. That hideious shingles-like event that is much too obnoxious to call a mere rash. Yep, me too. I was tortured with it for years (seven before the gluten connection was discovered. That discovery was made just this spring. !<br /><br />When I cut out gluten, my world changed. It's just that I keep trying to tell myself that it's not true! sigh. I really like gluten. <br /><br />But everytime I venture into that yummy stuff, I really do gain 6 pounds--and feel physically like I'm coming down with the flu--and in a week or two, the rash is back--and the cravins are back, too. Big. Every time.<br /><br />And how does that tie in w/ the unkown blogger? Well, when I read his rant about the numbers, blah, blah, blah, I immediately thought of my gluten-induced weight gain. Really. The morning after my gluten binge, I had gained 4 pounds. Two more by the next morning.<br /><br />Let me assure you, I did NOT eat 20,000 extra calories between 10pm Sunday and 10pm Monday. Five of those pounds are still there today. Despite a water pill. (water pills don't actually help the gluten weight.)<br /><br />Anyway. Sorry about the long comment. I was just so excited to hear from someone who knows. :)<br /><br />Best wishes for your own journey down the Highway to Thin!<br /><br />DebAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069995056260858128.post-66524390785237836422010-10-15T08:42:10.048-06:002010-10-15T08:42:10.048-06:00Well said vent.

So I'm praying for him. :D <br /><br />I like to walk in the woods. And I've also found it good to go just chat with the neighbor on the porch. Takes the food thoughts outa the brain and distracts me long enough. Other times I think we should look at what we want to eat, see if it can be modified, or substitued, and then plan to eat it. Hey atleast it wasn't on top of the calories you had already planned for the day, as in additional. No, it was tucked away inside the days plan. Atleast that was what I did with the pizza. I really had to search out a low calorie version and make it lower yet. Anyways I can understand what you're getting at. We can has a cheeseburger too! ;-) Just not 4 of them. Hey have a great Friday!Twixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03112782947827710096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069995056260858128.post-46847680932988361972010-10-15T08:39:20.509-06:002010-10-15T08:39:20.509-06:00"What do YOU do when you feel tempted and you..."What do YOU do when you feel tempted and you want to successfully navigate through it without eating?"<br /><br />Find something to do that will take an hour or more! the gym is usually my get away from it thing, that or take a quick ride around the lake that I live on ;)<br /><br />As Ever<br />MeZeusmeatballhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03841730555706808620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069995056260858128.post-82475201219446442102010-10-15T08:01:29.845-06:002010-10-15T08:01:29.845-06:00I crochet too!
