What's To Eat Wednesday

This is wonderful....

 Want an amazing and healthy side dish? Marinate sliced tomatoes with balsamic vinegar for 4-6 hours. Bake at 350 for about 7 minutes or a little tender. Meanwhile, saute spinach and garlic with a dash of salt and lemon juice. Put spinach on top of tomatoes and sprinkle with low fat cheese of your choice and if desired broil til cheese is golden!

Stress

I went back and re-read an entry I wrote in May- "I won today"- in which I actually beat stress/emotional eating that day!  I can honestly say the event of that day turned my life and often my smile upside down!  But I still manage everyday to fight the urge of emotional eating.  This week in the meeting room I shared an acronym for stress: strength to resist eating stupid stuff!  Strength is not an easy thing to gain.  It may take months and years and lots of falling down and getting back up but we can do it.  A ww tool for living is reframing; instead of the negative lets find a positive solution.  Instead of eating I will ________or I can________. If you have struggled with this issue and have a fill in the blank answer please share. 

Hope to see you back in the meeting room next week!

Happy New Year!

It seems like yesterday we were all in awe of Jennifer Hudson's "It's A New Day" commercial and now the "I Believe" HERE is almost unbelievable!  The comparisons of her side by side performance inspires and encourages us to continue on with the journey of becoming a new and healthier person.  I was inspired by her story last week in which she shared declining the role of "Precious" because she did not want to gain weight.  Standing up for her health and wellness over a significant Hollywood role inspires us to all Believe we can do this journey as well!

Day 2 of the new year is a long "to do" list.  Packing up all of the decorations and cleaning the house to start off the new year, finding (MAKING) time to do my 10 minute crunch, throwing out the snack foods because those who would eat it are leaving today, and reflecting that 12 years ago I committed myself to the ww journey and lifestyle WOW!  It is a new year and a new day and a new start and personally I need it!

How about you?  How are you starting off the new year?  Come see me in the meeting room this week as we knock down the stumbling blocks of the past and discover the tools that will allow you to believe that 2012 is your year!
