Being one of the world's greatest
procrastinators is trying at best. So little gets done. However, today I begin an effort to lose fifty pounds and I will documents all efforts toward that cause right here. All great procrastinators know the story about tackling any challenge. To eat an elephant, you have to take that first bite. I will eat this elephant one bite at a time and I plan to succeed. I even plan to like it, hence the name
Tasty Elephant. I chose cupcakes as my background because they are probably as close as I will get to cupcakes for the next long while. You will know I have made great progress when I change to a tofu background. Just don't expect too much too soon as I am still the same person I was when I gained the fifty I'm planning to lose. Stay tuned - this should be interesting. Please feel free to share recipes, ideas, encouragement...And, don't worry; I'm not really going to eat an elephant as that is what got me in this mess in the first place!
You Go Girlfriend.

In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back to pretend.
If I have to, I can do anything! I am WOMAN!!!!”

CONGRATULATIONS - you have made the hardest step! WALK. WALK, WALK, drinks LOTS of water, and exercise your buns off. Join a ladies only gym with a buddy. If you were here, we could go to Ladies Workout Express. I hate it, but I HAVE to do it. I will share recipes with you from weight watchers. That program works, too - but you really have to exercise to get it going. Walk everyday!

Susan,
ReplyDeleteYou’re an inspiration. I admire you and hope this will help you and me! FYI, the new Sabrina is on tonight – I think on A&E.

This is a great idea. I have been going twice a week to a "boot camp" style exercise event at my chuch using wieght and aerobics. If I were at home alone, I would just lie on the floor and groan, but with peer pressure, I go ahead and do the push ups and other less savory exercises- its good to have accountability.
ReplyDeleteYou can do it!!!
