Up again very early with a lot on my mind and blogging was one of them. I've been thinking about my mojo and where I may have lose it. I've also been thinking about the many excuses I have for not finding it or working to get it back. All of that thinking took me back down memory lane in 2006 me and one my co-workers decided that it was time to lose some weight. We did a email shake and was fired up about it. I did not start out as determine as she was but after watching the pounds dropping off of her.
There was no way in hell, I wasn't going to stay focus. We were finally on the same page eating right and laying off the sugar (my drug of choice), you know and if you don't I will tell you cakes, snacks, steaks, french fries, ice cream etc..... So by the end of 2006 we had met our goal we look great, we felt great too. Then my friend left the job and went to another company and I stuck with it because I knew if I took my eye off of the prize I would be right back where I started. People praise me saying, "you look good", "wow how did you do it", "what did you do to get that small", it took a lot of will power and determination that is what I told them. In 2007 I got a little relax I stated eating a little of this and a little of that and occasionally having the drug of my choice(sugary foods or fatty foods) more than three times a week.
By 2008 I had gained 20 pounds easy, and because I still was able to get in to my clothes I was not worried one bit matter a fact I thought I still had things under control. In 2009 everything went down hill for me my live was not worth living,I was overwhelmed with stressed and eating through it. Then my brother died and that was it, his death drain the life out of me and I gave up on everything including me. Now it is 2010 and I am trying find my way back and all I keep coming up with is excuses, excuses

Kim, I sympathize with you. I know what you are going through - I've been there, and that's especially true for what you wrote in your previous post. For me it took giving up sugar and restricting carbs, especially refined and those with high glycemic load to turn my life around. I am a totally new person now. No more excuses, no need for excuses. Life is so much better. I hope you find your way out of it, too. Good luck!
Thank you for your inspirational words! It feels good to know I am not alone.
From reading your comment and I don't want to assume but it sounds like you are amongst the many that have gain control of this addiction. I am waiting for the day that I too can celebrate my recovery from this dreadful disease called obesity. I would love to hear how you are keeping this dreadful addiction under control. Good Luck to you as well!!!
