the things to remember

Drinking water, making healthy food choices, working out, no late night snacking...those are the keys for me and when I do that I feel great. I also need to remind myself constantly that doing those things will make me feel great. I did last week. I did so great I forgot to come and blog. {Missed you all and will catch up this morning!} It's so simple and doing all those things makes me feel so better...not only physically but mentally.

I had a wedding this weekend and I did pretty good. I did have cake but avoided the bread and potatoes at dinner. And of course..I had wine! A girl can only be so good.

So I just saw a TV reporter in a story on the Today Show. Her name is Maria something..sorry I didn't catch it. So the big story is that she went from size 14 to size 4. I want to appreciate her journey but what I really resent is that it makes size 14 look so awful. So I want to hear it for those of us who went from size 24 to 14 {ME!}. Come on...I love being a 14. Of course I really loved being a 10 but we can't always get what we want.

Here's a good article about avoiding late night snacking. I'm here to say..I've done all these and when I do {that's the key phrase!} they work!
