You are right Ellen…I have so many things to be thankful for in my life, so I have always said this weight loss things is my one big area that I struggle….we can’t have it all. When I am doing good…and in the zone….it seems so easy to deny myself of all the crappy foods. I need to start repeating my mantra from last fall……”if hunger is not the problem, food is not the answer”

Weightloss is really hard… I think it is even moreso hard for people who are successful in other parts of their lives because it is that one thing you can indulge in. It can be a release. That quote up there is right; it is definitely a way people seek pleasure. I think that I do best on the days that I realize (before eating) that the food isn’t going to give me the kind of happiness I am looking for.

You know Eric…your’re right =). I am pretty much living my dream, and I am very happy and grateful for all I have in my life. I guess the one big thing that I feel like I continue to struggle with is this weight loss issue and taking good care of myself…….why, why, why, does this have to be so hard?????

Sounds to me like you’re “livin’ your dream already.”
