Valentine's Day!! Posted by Yvonne on 2/13/2008, 5:19 am 68.197.232.X OK, OK, OK!! I know that there are those who have waited until AFTER Valentine's Day! Well, it's tomorrow! Get it out of your system and come back to the Board. I have one more business luncheon for this month and then I can SS until February 29th. I don't know how others do it with adding food, but it really messes me up. I wish I could hide for about three months. But, that is not going to happen, so I had better continue doing the best I can when I can. Have a great day, everyone!!  Post a Response

Re: Valentine's Day!! Posted by Pam T on 2/13/2008, 7:46 am, in reply to "Valentine's Day!!" 75.169.10.X It will be the same at my school. Not only do we have our Valentines day party, but we also have another birthday! Her mom will bring in treats for that, the rest of the kids will bring in treats for each other, and we are expected to also do something for the kids. YIKES! I am glad that I no longer crave sugar and chocolate or I would be in serious trouble! lol!  Post a Response

And you wonder.... Posted by Yvonne on 2/13/2008, 8:47 am, in reply to "Re: Valentine's Day!!" 68.197.232.X With the epidemic of childhood obesity, one would think that our schools and society would wake up and smell the coffee. When I was younger, we just cut out hearts,had heart-shaped candies and not a lot of food. But, that was another era, I guess. If each child had just one little cupcake and then ran out to the playground to exercise (as we did), that would go a long way in trying to turn the tables on this insidious condition of obesity. I digress. Good luck, Pam with the parents. Have a great day!!  Post a Response

Yvonne Posted by Carol on 2/13/2008, 8:08 am, in reply to "Re: Valentine's Day!!" 168.213.1.X YOU are doing fantastic, and you are right that we can't always isolate ourselves from social events,luncheons,etc... However, we can chose to say NO,I don't want it, or I don't need it. Today in our workstation,aka,candyland, there are so many sugary treats: cupcakes,cookies etc... for V-Day, yikes!!! I just walk by it and remind myself about how I no longer an option! "The principle is competing against yourself. It's about self-improvement, about being better than you were the day before."

One day!! Posted by Yvonne on 2/13/2008, 8:41 am, in reply to "Yvonne" 68.197.232.X I hope one day, like you and Pam, I do not crave sweets or just food for that matter. Someone once told me, "Nothing tastes as good as thin feels." I hope that is true, because I have never been considered thin or normal size for that matter. Anyway, I am taking it one step at a time. Resist the urge!!  Post a Response
