MY NEW MANTRA

When you feel like cheating, repeat after me:


"Don't let a short term pleasure get in the way (or ruin) your long term goal."




Hugs from the beach!
Kat

"Father, please let me be a blessing to someone today."

Great mantra! I may have to borrow that one. Hope all your efforts are going well. I'm doing pretty good myself.

But, Kat, chocolate has medicinal powers. It makes us be a better us! I don't think you thought this through. Leave off ice cream. Leave off cake. Leave off pie. Leave off cookies. But, never, never, never leave off the chocolate!

You're absolutely right Tonja! Believe me, I'm getting in a few dark chocolate nibbles EVERY DAY!

A moment on the lips is forever on the hips!

Nice to read this, just as I was thinking about how nice a little something sweet would be. But I'm sticking to the low-carb thing no matter what. :)

Love that mantra. I do love chocolate too!! (And sweets for that matter!!!) I got the stomach bug early last Friday morning and was sick the whole weekend of new years. I lost 5 pounds just like that, but it was no fun! Feeling better now. Hope I can keep that weight off and that will jump start my exercise/weight program for 2011. Being sick put a halt to my walking routine. I was weak as water. Take care! Love & blessings from NC!
