Default Dear Sally and good people dieting

You are all doing those things that you can to help with your diets. You can do this. I swear that it can be done without excersise. I can't walk well, so I cannot exercise eithor. You are all on the right track and you don't have to spend money on WW or anyother program. It is all inside you. There is a mind set to conquer that is all it takes. We get so defeated when we slip up. I slipped up alot and still lost the weight. my motivation was pain, my ankles, and that set me on the right track. I know with MS all the trouble there is with that too. My cousin dianne has it. After every diet on the face of the earth I tried, it was inside me all along, to be able to loose the weight and keep it off. I guess I wanted this to happen so badly, that my mind set changed. You don't have to make big changes to have the results. Try to not use any packaged food with presertives. I eat yogurt, cottage cheese, eggs, oatmeal, and all the other good foods. Once i got the hang of it, I lost the weight very fast. When the initial hunger passes, and your stomach shrinks, you get by with less. Once that first three months passes your new way of eating will take over, especially when you see how fast the weight comes off. That will spur you on. It is OK to slip up too. I still eat dark chocolate and often! Keep up all you are doing and it will work. I may have alot of medical and emotional problems, but this was one I didn't fail at. It was something I could control, where everything else was out of my control.
I care about all of you, as I faced the same as you are. I am here for you if every you need a receipe, or a boost to help you. You are in my thoughts and prayers. ginnie
