About Me

February 2012 UPDATE:
I'm back on track! In January I lost 7.4 pounds. I got a BodyBugg for Christmas and (although it is not crucial to my success) it has helped put wind in my sails. It really helps me to push me to try and create that 750-1000+ daily deficit. I'm feeling back on track, present, aware and ready to make 2012 a great year with positive year-end results!

January 2012 UPDATE:
From 2009 to 2010 I lost 100 pounds. In 2011 I gained 25 pounds back. I never "unplugged" completely, but I was just not making the right decisions to balance work and life and health in the way to ensure success. Now in 2012, I am fighting my way back. I cannot end up where I left off. I can't let all the work and success I realized be undone. And I must continue on to reach a healthy weight. Ready set, go.

CharityShantell posted HUNGER versus SATIETY - Hmmmmm.... in the group HUNGER versus SATIETY - Hmmmmm....
“ I really appreciated this video. It is only 4 1/2 minutes long and it talks about how HUNGER and SATIETY are two completely different things, and even include separate hormonal processes. Therefore, we need to wait 20 minutes before having seconds. And...... it's also yet another good reason to eat slowly! This is directed at parents, but I take it for myself. We all need to "manage" or "parent" ourselves as well, after all! www.youtube.com/watch ”
