What Motivates Me

The other day I decided to share my thoughts with one of my support groups. One of the members of this group suggested I share it with another group, as well as put it in my blog, so here it is!

I am looking forward to sharing this journey with those of you willing to keep us all informed.

I wish those of you that are struggling with this way of eating the best of luck in getting back on plan.

I understand it takes a certain frame of mind to give up foods that make us feel good, but feeling your body getting smaller is much more satisfying.

Every day that I am successful in eating the CALP way, is another day that is getting me closer to my goal. I have a long way to go, but I know that the choices I am making are getting me closer every day.

I just turned 49 years old the beginning of this month and have decided that I want to live the rest of my life to its fullest. I would love to go clothes shopping and buy clothes that actually look good on me instead of something that fits. I would love to take the stairs and not be winded when I get to the top. I would love to take a hike and enjoy the beautiful scenery. I would love to go anywhere and not feel ashamed of the way I look.

I am a carbohydrate addict and I lose control of what I eat when I do not follow the program. I have come to the realization that this is not a diet for me, but the way I must eat for the rest of my life!
